“Should I get dentures?”
Living with missing teeth is not a viable option for most people, as it causes them embarrassment when smiling or talking, inhibiting even the basic daily activities, and unfortunately negatively affecting how others perceive them.

You may think you can hide a missing molar, but a missing front tooth will cause your confidence to take a beating. But also, importantly if a gap is left, the other teeth will shift position causing them to become misaligned, changing the natural shape of your face.
Dentures are custom made artificial replacements for missing teeth, if made correctly they will look and feel completely natural. With proper fitting dentures you will have no problems chewing food, talking, or smiling confidently.
When an accident happens and your dentures break or fracture and you can no longer use them, this is cause for an emergency just like any other tooth emergency and need to be treated by your Dentist as just that, ‘An Emergency’. It is essential to research and find a Dental practice with qualified helpful staff that can offer an express repair service, very often even allowing you to have your dentures fixed while you wait, so you don’t have to go without them for very long, eliminating any unnecessary embarrassment.
