How We Create Full Dentures

Creating full dentures involves the following steps:

Impressions: We start by taking precise impressions of your gums, ensuring your full dentures match your mouth.
Trial Fitting: Before the final dentures are created, we provide you with a trial fitting using a wax or plastic model.
Adjustments: We then fine-tune your dentures for optimal comfort and functionality. This ensures your bite alignment is optimised and the aesthetics are pleasing.
Education and Care: Once your full dentures have been created and adjusted, our team will advise you as to how to maintain your dentures. This covers cleaning, maintenance and tips for adapting to your new smile.

When are Denture Replacements Necessary?

Knowing when to replace full dentures depends on various factors. Over time, changes in your oral structure, wear and tear and natural aging can affect the fit and functionality of dentures. If you notice persistent discomfort, sore spots or difficulty chewing, it may be time for a replacement. Additionally, visible signs like cracks, chips or worn-down teeth indicate wear that can impact both aesthetics and function.

Changes in facial appearance, such as sunken cheeks or a collapsed mouth, may also signal that your dentures no longer provide adequate support. Generally, dentures should be reassessed every five to seven years, but individual experiences vary. Regular check-ups with our technicians at East Coast Denture Clinics ensures timely adjustments and replacements, which will (in turn) help you safeguard your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to get used to wearing full dentures?

The adjustment period for full dentures varies, but most individuals adapt within a few weeks to a few months. Initially, there may be discomfort, changes in speech and increased saliva flow. Gradual acclimatisation, along with proper care and regular follow-ups with your denture professional, helps ease the transition. Patience and consistent wear contribute to improved comfort and functionality as you become accustomed to wearing full dentures.
How often should I clean and care for my full dentures?

Clean your full dentures at least twice daily to maintain hygiene. Use a soft-bristled brush and mild denture cleanser to remove plaque and stains. Avoid abrasive materials that may damage the denture surface. Remove dentures at night to allow your gums to rest. Soak them in a denture cleaning solution overnight. Regular cleaning, along with proper storage and routine check-ups, ensures the longevity and comfort of your full dentures.
Are there specific foods I should avoid with full dentures?

Initially, stick to softer foods like yogurt, steamed vegetables and scrambled eggs to ease into wearing full dentures. Avoid very sticky or hard foods that may challenge the denture's stability. Gradually reintroduce a variety of foods as you become more comfortable. Cut tougher items into smaller pieces. With time and practice, you'll adapt to a broader range of foods, but be cautious with extremely sticky or hard textures to prevent denture discomfort or damage.
