Help If Your Dentures Are Ill-Fitting, Uncomfortable or Painful
In some cases, the denture may not be broken, but the shape of your gums has changed, meaning the denture no longer fits like it used to. This can lead to symptoms such as:
- Dentures feeling loose, making eating or speaking a challenge
- Discomfort when eating
- Swollen, painful gums where the denture has begun to rub
- Gum sores
- Bad breath
The surface of the denture that fits over your gums also may have become chipped or worn, which can contribute to gum discomfort.
If you’re suffering from any of these symptoms, we can help. Our emergency service includes relining. Relining a denture involves scraping away the parts of the denture surface that are causing irritation, smoothing them down and then applying a fresh, thin layer of resin.
Once hardened, the resin provides a smooth surface that’s moulded to fit the new contours of your gums. We can complete same day soft or hard relining, depending on which option suits you.
FAQ
What should I do if my dentures break?
If your dentures are damaged or broken, it’s important you don’t wear them. If you do, you could irritate or damage your mouth or swallow small parts. While there are DIY denture repair kits available to purchase, we advise never using these as they can cause irreversible damage.
Additionally, never use super glue as it’s a toxic substance. Our professional, same-day denture repairs at Smiles on Hobart can be carried out efficiently and reliably. Make sure you bring every piece of your broken dentures to your appointment.
What do emergency denture repairs involve?
Denture repairs might involve preparing a mould of your damaged dentures, repairing it with strengtheners, adding prosthetic teeth or curing the denture.
Once we assess your situation and the level of damage, we’ll be able to choose the most suitable treatment method.
We’re able to repair your dentures while you wait, so you won’t need to worry about the inconvenience of not having your denture or of making a subsequent appointment to have them fitted.
What causes dentures to break?
Many of our clients with broken dentures have simply dropped them. Dropping your dentures can cause them to crack, and later when you eat or drink they can easily come apart.
The strength of your particular denture will depend on its grade and on its material composition. If your dentures aren’t properly fitted, or are old, they’re also more likely to weaken or break.
How often should I get my dentures checked?
When we assess your dentures, we’ll offer individualised advice on how often you should have them checked.
Checks are important to help you maintain your oral health, and to stay on top of any changes in your denture’s fit.
Will I be fitted with a denture while I heal from implant surgery?
Yes. While we might sometimes recommend patients avoid wearing dentures for the first couple of weeks following surgery to promote healing, you will be fitted with a temporary denture as your implants heal.
