| Dentures have been the accepted method of treatment of missing teeth. If you’ve lost all of your natural teeth, whether from periodontal disease, tooth decay or injury, complete dentures can replace your missing teeth and restore your natural smile. When you replace missing teeth, not only will the appearance of your smile benefit, but you will gain health benefits as well. Without teeth or a structure for your bones and facial muscles to adhere to they will begin to sag and leave you looking older and soon your jaw will deteriorate.
Even if you wear full dentures, you still must take good care of your mouth. It is imperative that you continue with good oral hygiene even after you receive your dentures. Brush your gums tongue and palate to stimulate circulation and remove plaque. |
