DENTURES
Depending on a patient’s dental health, a full denture may be an option of treatment. Also if you are a patient with ill fitting dentures it also may be a time to discuss treatment options.
The advantages to a full denture are its ability to aid in chewing function and to maintain or even recreate lip and cheek support. Without this support, the facial tissue usually sinks in and appears to be aging. Over time dentures wear (and the underlying tissue as well) and eventually need to be either remade or rebased to keep this facial support in tone.
