Anyone with one or more missing teeth looking for an affordable prosthetic solution is a candidate for dentures. To determine if you are an ideal candidate for dentures, schedule a consultation with our Flushing, Queens dentist at Dental Solutions New York today.

At your consultation, you will be assessed by our dentist to see if you are a good candidate for dentures. If so, a dental impression of the surrounding teeth and gums will be taken in order to obtain measurements that are necessary for denture fabrication. After this has been completed, our dentist will send your impression to a lab where the dentures will be created. Once they are ready, you can pick up and adjust your new set of teeth. In some cases, multiple fitting appointments may be needed to ensure the proper fit.

Proper care is needed to ensure that your dentures will last as long as possible. Each night, you will need to remove and clean your dentures with denture solution before storing them in water to prevent their shape from warping. You will also need to gently clean your gums as well to prevent bacteria from being trapped under the denture. In the first few weeks after having your dentures placed, it is normal to experience some discomfort while your mouth adjusts. However, if you are continuing to experience discomfort or pain while wearing your dentures, contact us at Dental Solutions New York for an appointment.
