Are your dentures holding you back

A smile is one of the most basic, biologically uniform expressions of all humans. Smiling is not just a universal means of communicating, it’s also aw frequent one. More than 30% of us smile more than 20 times a day and less than 14% of us smile less than 5 times a day.

Smiling has a host of benefits which include:

Mood Boosting - Psychologists have found that even if you’re in a bad mood smiling can lift your spirits.

Boost your immunity - smiling makes your body more relaxed and contributes to a good health and stronger immunity.

Relieves Stress - Smiling releases endorphins which reduce stress and change your mood. Even forcing a smile has the same effect.

Lowering blood pressure - Reducing stress and smiling can also help lower blood pressure.

Smiles are infectious - Not only do others smile when we smile but studies also suggest we appear more attractive to others when we smile.

What if you don’t like your smile, do you suffer from loose poorly fitted or broken dentures? Here at The Bolton Denture Centre we have been helping denture wearers to get beautiful smiles for over 15 years.

Constructing A Good Set Of Dentures

Constructing a functional and aesthetically pleasing set of dentures is the most difficult task in dentistry. We are not only replacing lost teeth, but also lost tissue matter and bone. In other words, we have to re-create your facial features as they were before the loss of your natural teeth.

In most cases we do not know what your teeth looked like, what size they were or what position they were in originally. We have a few indications but mostly we have to rely on our visual and artistic judgement.

At the same time we have to use our technical expertise in order to make the denture stable and functional. Denture construction is more art than science.

Dentures Need Regular Servicing

Dentures are in constant use almost 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. They are also in a pretty hostile environment in the mouth, being attacked by strong acid, bacteria, hot, cold and spicy food. Denture material absorbs liquids and food odour.

Daily cleaning is essential as well as professional ultrasonic cleaning in a dental laboratory at least once a year. Due to constant bone resorbtion dentures will become loose sooner or later.

Loose dentures will increase damage to the gums and bone structure, and increase the risk of breakage. Have them re-lined as soonas possible to get a good fit. It only takes a day or two.

Have your dentures inspected by a Clinical Dental Technician at least every two years, or more frequently if necessary.
