Unfortunately, one of the common problems encountered by people is tooth loss. However, you don\u2019t have to worry anymore for there are lots of options to choose from! One of them is the tried and tested dentures.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dentures are custom-made replacements for missing teeth. At Family Dental Care, we offer fixed and traditional dentures. With fixed dentures, patients are required to undergo minor surgery to place the implants. This type of denture is non-removable unless removed by the dentist. Traditional dentures, on the other hand, are removable and require no surgery.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"425\" height=\"282\" src=\"http:\/\/beavertonfamilydental.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/denture.jpg\" alt=\"denture\" class=\"wp-image-20\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beavertonfamilydental.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/denture.jpg 425w, https:\/\/beavertonfamilydental.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/denture-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><figcaption><br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know the types of dental prostheses we offer, we will then be sharing some tips on how to properly take care of your dentures.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Regularly clean the dentures<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cleaning your dentures is the same as cleaning your natural teeth. Brush dentures twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush. However, when cleaning traditional dentures, avoid using toothpaste or cleaning solutions that are too harsh or abrasive as these can cause damage. Flossing is also needed to remove the food particles left in between teeth to prevent the buildup of plaques. Remember that practicing proper oral hygiene is still important when wearing removable or fixed dentures.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do not let the dentures to dry out<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the traditional dentures are not in use, soak them in water or a mild denture-soaking solution to avoid drying them out. Do not soak the prosthesis in hot water as this can warp the dentures.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Consult the dentist<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consult the dentist right away if the dentures are becoming loose, chipped or cracked in order to prevent the prosthesis from damaging further. The dentist will see to it that the proper treatment will be provided to the patient for comfortable and convenient use of dentures. Whether the dentures are removable or fixed, regular dental visits must be observed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>You deserve outstanding dental care services.
