GOING TO A DENTURIST VERSES OTHER DENTAL
PROFESSIONALS?
Your Denturist listens to your needs. They
personally handle every step in the
construction of your denture; from the first
impression to the last adjustment. There is
no middleman in the fabrication of your new
denture. The Denturist has an on site
laboratory to produce your personalized
dentures.
Your Denturist is the ideal person to
instruct you in the daily maintenance of
your denture. They can also tell you how often
your denture should be adjusted in order to
ensure the comfort, effectiveness and
esthetic appearance that you expect. After
all, Denturists specialize in making Dentures and
Related Removable Appliances.

HOW LONG DO DENTURES LAST?
Your dentures will not last indefinitely.
The denture teeth and base will wear and
stain over time. The tissues of the mouth
are undergoing continual change so that the
dentures will have to be adjusted, rebased
or remade from time to time. The time will
vary and depend upon such factors as
individual tolerances, habits and the length
of time you have had dentures. The average
life of a denture is about five to seven
years.
Your Denturist is sensitive to your
well-being and to the general condition of
your dentures. Your Denturist also has the
experience and expertise to advise you on
your best treatment plan and how to proceed.

NOW I HAVE
DENTURES, I DON’T NEED AN ANNUAL EXAM, DO I?
Your dentures and
tissues should be checked annually. Damage
to the oral tissues can take place without
you being aware of it. Early detection and
elimination of tissue inflammation is
important to minimize shrinkage of the
supporting bone and tissue. By keeping the
tissue healthy, your dentures will continue
to fit correctly.
Your Denturist will also check for looseness
of the denture due to tissue changes, stains
and calculus deposits on the denture, your
bite position (how evenly your teeth close
together). It’s not the dentures which
change over time, it’s your mouth which is
continually changing so by having your
Denturist check on your oral condition, you
are able to enjoy all benefits of a well
fitting quality denture.
