Their FAQ

Answers from their website.

What is the average cost of dentures?

The cost of dentures varies significantly because of factors including the complexity of the treatment and the time required for completion. It is advisable to arrange a consultation with your dentist to discuss your needs. This will enable them to comprehend your situation thoroughly and provide you with an accurate estimate of the fees.

How fast can I receive my dentures?

The duration required to obtain a set of dentures varies according to one’s specific condition. The dentist will provide an estimate based on your individual situation. While the dentist needs time to ensure the new set is properly crafted and fitted, they will do their best to minimize delivery time.

Do I have to wear denture adhesives?

Dentures are crafted to fit naturally within your mouth. As a result, they often don’t require the regular use of an adhesive. Most patients get acclimated to their dentures after a week of continuous use. However, if your dentures do fit poorly, consult your dentist as soon as possible to eliminate discomfort and irritation.

How should I take care of my dentures?

Similar to natural teeth, proper maintenance is essential. Employ a toothbrush with soft bristles to clean dentures thoroughly and ensure they remain moist when not in use. It is crucial to keep both the dentures moist and the tongue and gums clean to prevent the formation of harmful bacteria.

How often should I wear my dentures?

This is personal preference, however, we recommend that you wear your dentures as much as possible. It is widely agreed upon that you should sleep without your dentures, However, if you choose to sleep with them it is important to keep your dentures extremely clean. Remove them at least once a day and brush the tissues underlying the dentures with a soft toothbrush. This removes any plaque build up along with any food debris. It also stimulates the blood vessels which is an essential part of a healthy tissue.

Will dentures affect the way I eat?

When you get new dentures, it takes time to get used to them. Learning to chew again is important. Start with small bites and chew slowly. Stay away from sticky or hard foods at first. You should soon see an improvement due to the new dentures being more efficient as the chewing surfaces have less wear.

How often should I visit my dentist after getting my dentures?

For optimal performance of your dentures, schedule an annual check-up with your dentist. During this visit, your dentist will identify any issues or abnormalities requiring attention and may refer you to a specialist for further medical care if necessary.

What happens to my teeth after veneers, and will I ever get cavities?

The integrity of veneered teeth is only marginally compromised, and the veneer is bonded to the existing teeth. There is no higher incidence of decay provided the veneers are properly cared for as previously mentioned with regular flossing and brushing with toothpaste. In general, it is good dental advice to keep your sugar consumption low and confined to meal times to prevent decay.
