We customize dentures to fit the patients' jaws and ensure they do not result in irritation. After some time, resorption can occur. Typically, this happens when the body redistributes calcium from the jawbone as no teeth are left to stimulate them. As a result, the jawbone recedes, meaning that dentures may no longer fit as well as before. Calistoga Dental Group provides maintenance services for all our dentures to tackle this issue.

What Happens When You don't Adjust Dentures?

If the dentures crack, chip, feel loose, or break, do not attempt to fix them without consulting an expert. Calistoga Dental Group has the expertise and skills necessary to adjust dentures accurately. Our dentists advise patients to only change or repair dentures after scheduling an appointment. Otherwise, you may spend more money on repairs, causing harm to the gums, so we don't recommend it.

Some patients may only need to replace a few teeth, while others may choose to get a replacement for all. Dentures are more complex than some people realize since we customize them to match each patient's teeth. In light of this, dentures aren't one-size-fits-all. It takes specialized work from a professional to restore or repair a damaged or broken set of dentures. Although dentures are durable, they are not indestructible.

Many people buy over-the-counter glues and relining materials to repair their dentures to avoid going to the dentist. The products are dental tools but may not help your condition. Most over-the-counter products contain chemicals that can harm gums and affect teeth health. So give us a call whenever you need to adjust or repair dentures in Calistoga, CA.
