Dentures Q & A
What are dentures?

How do dentures work?
Dr. Visot has dentures custom made in a laboratory. They’re made specifically to fit your mouth based on impressions taken at his office.
To provide full dentures, Dr. Visot applies an acrylic base over your gums. He fits the upper denture to the roof your mouth, and the lower denture is specially-shaped to fit around your tongue. Sometimes, a full denture requires removing natural teeth.
Partial dentures are fitted onto metal frames attached to your natural teeth. In some cases, Dr. Visot places crowns on nearby natural teeth to help support your dentures.
Will I get used to my dentures?
Chewing your food and even speaking might feel awkward for the first few weeks, but they get easier with practice. Over time, the muscles inside your mouth get used to supporting your dentures, and the fit will improve.
Minor irritation and a feeling that your tongue doesn’t have enough room inside your mouth are also both normal. If irritation persists for a prolonged period, make sure to see Dr. Visot.
How long will my dentures last?
Dentures are built to have long lives with proper maintenance. At your follow up visits, Dr. Visot monitors normal wear-and-tear. Every so often, he relines and rebases your dentures.
As you age, your mouth changes and Dr. Visot has to update your dentures to maintain a good fit. Keeping good oral hygiene habits helps make your dentures last longer. Also, brush your dentures to get rid of plaque and food deposits, and keep them in water when they’re not in use.
