Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures
How long does it take to get dentures?
The process typically takes a few weeks, depending on whether extractions are needed and how much healing time is required. Immediate dentures can be placed the same day teeth are removed.
Will dentures feel uncomfortable?
There is an adjustment period, but well-made dentures should become comfortable over time. We make any necessary adjustments to improve fit and reduce sore spots.
How long do dentures last?
Most dentures last 5–10 years. Over time, your mouth changes, and relines or replacements may be needed to maintain a proper fit.
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
We generally recommend removing dentures at night to allow your gums to rest and to maintain oral health.
How do I clean my dentures?
Dentures should be cleaned daily using a soft brush and denture cleaner. We’ll show you exactly how to care for them properly.
What if my dentures don’t fit anymore?
If your dentures become loose, don’t wait. We can often adjust, reline, or replace them to restore comfort and function.
Are dentures my only option?
Not always. Depending on your situation, there may be other options available. We’ll go over all of your choices so you can make the best decision.
