Understanding Dentures
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They come in two main categories: full dentures, which replace all teeth in an arch, and partial dentures, which fill gaps between remaining natural teeth.
Modern denture technology has made significant advancements, allowing for prosthetics that closely mimic the appearance and function of natural teeth. These custom-made appliances not only restore your ability to eat and speak comfortably but also help maintain facial structure, preventing the sunken appearance often associated with tooth loss.

FAQs About Dentures
Can metal clasps on partial dentures damage teeth?
While metal clasps are designed to be safe, improper fit or excessive pressure can potentially cause wear on adjacent teeth. At WA Dental, we carefully design and adjust partial dentures to minimize this risk. Regular check-ups allow us to monitor and adjust the fit as needed, ensuring your natural teeth remain protected while benefiting from the support of partial dentures.
Do you clean dentures after every meal?
While it’s not necessary to thoroughly clean dentures after every meal, rinsing them after eating is recommended. This helps remove food particles and keeps your dentures fresh. A more thorough cleaning should be done at least once daily, preferably before bedtime. We’ll provide you with detailed cleaning instructions tailored to your specific type of dentures to ensure they stay in top condition.
What are the ingredients used to make dentures?
Modern dentures are typically made from a combination of materials. The base is usually crafted from acrylic resin or flexible nylon polymer, which mimics the appearance of gum tissue. The artificial teeth are often made from porcelain or acrylic resin. These materials are chosen for their durability, natural appearance, and comfort. At WA Dental, we use high-quality, biocompatible materials to ensure your dentures are safe, comfortable, and long-lasting.
How do you clean dentures?
Proper cleaning is crucial for maintaining your dentures and oral health. Start by rinsing dentures after meals to remove loose food particles. Brush them daily with a soft-bristled brush and non-abrasive denture cleaner to remove plaque and stains. Avoid using regular toothpaste, which can be too abrasive. Soak your dentures overnight in a denture-soaking solution to keep them moist and help them retain their shape. Always handle your dentures carefully to avoid dropping and damaging them.
How long can dentures be kept in water?
Dentures should be kept moist when not in your mouth to prevent them from drying out and losing their shape. You can safely store them in water or a denture-soaking solution overnight or during short periods when you’re not wearing them. However, if you plan to store your dentures for an extended period, consult with us at WA Dental. We can provide specific guidance on long-term storage to ensure your dentures remain in optimal condition and ready for use when you need them.
