Whether the patient is getting partial or full dentures, it can be challenging to adjust to new dentures. Adjusting to dentures can take time for various reasons, but it will be worth it once an individual can smile again, retaining a complete set of teeth. In addition, dentures or dental implants we design at Calistoga Dental Group can restore patients' natural teeth' appearance and functionality.

Necessary Changes to a Dental Hygiene Routine

It is common for permanent adult teeth to fall out due to poor dental hygiene and aging, accelerating infection spreading and tooth loss. Besides, it may affect more than one tooth or the entire mouth. So a professional must remove the teeth to prevent them from spreading and causing more pain. As soon as after removing the infection, we can insert the dentures.

Patients must also establish a new oral hygiene routine at home to adjust to wearing new dentures. In addition, patients will need to practice speaking while having dentures inside their mouths. However, the changes one must make are worth the benefits of wearing dentures, even if that means suddenly changing one's routine.

What are The Various Types of Dentures?

We offer patients a wide variety of dentures to choose from. Sometimes, we recommend a specific type of denture based on the patient's oral health. Our dentures will be customized, and we ensure they fit every patient perfectly. Consequently, patients won't have to worry about denture size issues when they contact our team.

We specialize in conventional complete dentures that people mostly prefer these days. They consist of two rows of upper and lower teeth to fit along the upper and lower jaws.

In implant-supported dentures, dentures are attached to metal posts in the jaw to keep them in place. They require no removal for cleaning. However, not all patients have the patience or interest to wear dental implants throughout the day. Our dentists work day and night to determine the best option for a patient during an initial examination or fixing new dentures. Wearing dentures has multiple health benefits, regardless of the type.

Numerous Benefits of Dentures

Full Functionality with a Natural Appearance

Patients who receive dentures can continue eating the foods they already know and love. However, they should start with softer foods before shifting to harder and stickier ones. It can take some time for the patients to adjust to the new dentures. Once the patient has adapted to the dentures, he or she can have a fully functional mouth again. Contrary to popular belief, others will not notice whether you are wearing false teeth.

Eat Whatever Food You Prefer

Patients need time and practice to feel comfortable using and speaking with dentures. They will not feel burdened by the orthodontic implants after knowing their functions and guidelines for cleaning and using them.

Stimulating The Face structure

When an individual does not have teeth in the mouth, the body will go through a process known as resorption. In this process, the body might sense that there are no teeth to stimulate the nerves in the mouth. As a result, the body reabsorbs calcium from the jaw bone, weakening the structure of the face. Moreover, one's face can have a sagging appearance due to resorption. However, you can rely on the dentures from our Calistoga Dental Group to help prevent this.
