Dentures

Dentures are dental appliances that are used to replace missing teeth. If your natural teeth have been lost due to injury, decay or disease, dentures are a tooth replacement option that can bring back both function and appearance. Tooth loss can cause the facial muscles to sag, making you look older. High-quality dentures from West SoHo Dentistry can fill in the space created by missing teeth in a natural-looking manner.

It will take some time to adjust to new dentures. It is common for them to feel loose and awkward for some time as the muscles of the tongue and cheek adjust. You may also experience some soreness and irritation and excess saliva. These problems will go away as you adjust to your dentures. Dentures require care and maintenance just like natural teeth.
