Affordable Dentures

In the best of all possible worlds, false teeth last forever. But in fact, over time, the tissues in your mouth change, and even the best replacement teeth won't fit as well as they once did.

The preferred remedy - a new denture - isn't always feasible or affordable. Dentures are expensive - that's why there are denture relines.

Albeit a temporary solution to slippery dentures, there is no denying that relining can make a difference in how you look, relieve any soreness and, most of all, bolster your self-confidence. And that's important.

So what does relining involve?

There are two ways to go about it. A reline can be fashioned by a dental laboratory. Your prosthodontist takes impressions in his/her office, and the lab rebuilds your prosthodontics in about 24 hours. Optionally, they can reform the liner for you in a single visit. The reline material, a kind of plastic, is cast directly in your mouth and allowed to set. A "quick" reline, though, probably won't last as long as the lab-processed version.

In any case, you'll gain what is called "vertical dimension," new height to your face. The result is a more youthful appearance, and a renewed sense of control. Call your denturist to schedule an evaluation appointment. Or fill out the search form above to search for a dentist.

Low Cost Dentures - Custom False Teeth - Are They For You?

Think of dentures or false teeth as if they were clothing. There are ready-to-wear low-codenturesres that come "off the rack." The pattern's the same, and the materials are run of the mill. Then there are custom dentures that are individually styled for you, with the right fit and the best materials. There are hundreds of clinical and design choices. Individuals have different requirements and need their own special look.

Depending on age, and even gender, there are differences in the shape, length and color of teeth. The front teeth are often lighter in color than the cuspids alongside. Color should range from coral near the edge to pinkish near the base. Some base materials absorb more moisture, which can affect the fit. Old photographs or your old dentures can be used to give you the most natural look.

The texture of your denture is important, too. Unlike ready-to-wear, low cost dentures that are smooth-as-glass, good false teeth have some texture on the surface, especially on upper teeth. This helps you chew and speak properly.

Good low-cost dentures should be one-of-a-kind. Remember, you'll be wearing them every day!
