Dentures should be replaced every 5 to 10 years. As the years pass, your jawbone shrinks which in turn leads to a change in your denture's fit. Since it is normal for your mouth to change and dentures to wear down, you should have them checked once a year by a professional.

Even if you have lost some or all of your natural teeth, you should continue to visit your dentist once a year. The dentist will be able to evaluate the fit of your dentures, offer suggestions for denture care and hygiene, and check for any issues that may arise, such as oral cancer.

If you have lost or broken your dentures, same-day emergency service can be very helpful. With our on-site lab, emergency repairs can usually be completed on the same day.

Daily care and cleaning of new dentures are crucial because they help maintain good dental health. 

For everyday cleaning, use a soft brush and a cleaning agent, such as soap and water, or use products that are designed specifically for cleaning dentures. 

To eliminate harmful bacteria, you should brush both the inside and outside of your dentures. We also advise soaking your denture in water or a denture-cleaning agent when you remove them at night.

To prevent damage to your dentures from an accidental drop, we strongly recommend that you hold your dentures over a full sink when you're cleaning them. For additional protection, you can cushion the sink and counter with a soft cloth or towel.

New dentures can create sore spots on your gums. Call and set up an appointment to adjust your dentures.

Adjustments help eliminate sore spots and there is typically no charge during the first 60 days. After 60 days, a small fee is charged for adjustments.
