Denture Exams & Maintenance
About service:
Dentures require ongoing professional care. Changes in the gums, bone, bite, and denture materials can affect comfort and function over time.
Regular denture examinations allow our team to evaluate both your prosthesis and your oral health.
What We Evaluate Medical and Dental History Changes in medications, medical conditions, and dental health can affect your oral tissues and denture fit.
Oral Examination We examine the tissues of the mouth for irritation, lesions, and other abnormalities.
Tissue and Bone Assessment Changes in the gums and underlying bone can alter the fit of a denture.
Comfort, Fit, and Bite An ill-fitting denture can contribute to sore spots, difficulty chewing, speech changes, and irritation.
Denture Integrity We inspect for cracks, chips, worn areas, and loose or damaged denture teeth.
A denture maintenance visit may include: - Medical and dental history update - Oral examination - Tissue and bone assessment - Denture stability and bite evaluation - Denture cleaning and polishing - Oral hygiene review
