Do you need dentures? If you brush your pearly whites two times per day and floss at least once a day, the answer is most likely no. If you’re older than 60 and have lost several pearly whites, the answer could be yes.
Identifying the need for dentures can be difficult, but there are some signs you can look for to indicate whether you could have a need for false teeth. First of all and most obviously, you could need false teeth if you are missing teeth. If the teeth you do have feel additionally sensitive to heat, cold and other sensations, you may have grave tooth breakdown, necessitating partial or complete false teeth.
If you do need false teeth, they’ll be fashioned to last for a long time. To develop dentures, Dr. Richard J. Gawarzewski begins by taking an impression of the patient’s oral cavity, through use of a resin mold or imaging. After Dr. Richard J. Gawarzewski reviews the impression or image to make sure it is ready, we will send the impressions to a dental laboratory for processing. Technicians at the lab use high temperatures and advanced techniques to create solid, durable false teeth that will last for a very long time.
In a second appointment, Dr. Richard J. Gawarzewski will make final alterations to the dentures to ensure that they sit well in the patient’s oral cavity.
