We want your new denture to be as comfortable as possible, while your eating, speaking and most importantly, smiling! Dentures are reusable dental prosthetics (false teeth) that replicate ordinary teeth. Dentures are made from high quality materials such as acrylic and chrome and each material affects the physical qualities of the denture, such as hardness, flexibility, weight, comfort and durability. Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to denture comfort and our specialists will ensure that you receive the ones that most satisfy you. When carefully looked after, your dentures can last anywhere from several right up to 8 years before needing to be replaced. Throughout these years, your dentures suffer from natural wear and tear and will need to be relined or restored to guarantee that they retain their comfort and functionality. The cost of dentures depends on the style of denture (full or partial) and the materials used to create them. At Dentures at Varsity, we always aim to provide cost-effective denture products for our clients, while maintaining superior quality. Knowing how to correctly look after your dentures will improve their longevity. Dentures must be properly brushed and washed each day with a denture cleanser to help eradicate germs and remove any stains or gunk. If your dentures are becoming difficult to clean, speak to one of specialists today who can have your dentures professionally cleaned for you. --- > We offer two customised denture packages at our state-of-the-art boutique denture clinic.

The Pro’s Prevents dry sockets Prevents excessive bone loss Quicker adjustment to the denture(s) Walk away with a nice smile straight after the extractions The process and our tailored plan for you The First Consultation Your journey to transitioning to an immediate denture will begin with a completely tailored treatment plan with us. We will carefully examine your mouth and understand your medical history, we will also discuss what to expect with interim dentures. In this appointment we will also discuss and provide you with an accurate quote for your custom immediate dentures and begin making a treatment plan to perfectly suit your schedule eg: Work leave, school holidays, fly in fly out and time off. The Dentist We have amazing group of dentists that we have been working with for many years and have great professional relationships with.

At this stage we work with you in selecting a tooth shape, size and shade from the vast selection Dentures at Varsity have on hand. Our goal in working as a team is to design a practice, realistic and natural denture that you will be proud to wear. The hard part Now that we have created the treatment plan, chosen the teeth and design of the transitional dentures, we must begin creating your new denture & smile in our lab.

The best part is that Adrian along with his technician create the perfect smile for you themselves - This gives you peace of mind that we are there every step of the way and no communication is lost whilst your new investment, your dentures are created. The big day After your instant dentures have been carefully made by our team, your teeth will be extracted and the dentures placed in by the selected dentist. Our after care for you Here at Dentures at Varsity we pride ourselves on the best after care for all of our patients in all the services we provide. We offer a lifetime free adjustment service on all dentures created here at Dentures at Varsity to all our valued patients. This insures you feel protected and have peace of mind that the team are here for your convenience should you require any assistance, have any concerns or need further adjustments. Our tailored after care plan with you ensures you are comfortable throughout your whole immediate denture journey and all concerns are taken care of. So you now have immediate dentures Day 1 After the extraction procedure and insertion of the dentures, we will see you 24hrs after for a check-up and to make some small adjustments to the denture if needed. Your gums will be slightly swollen and the dentures will feel odd in your mouth at that time. This is normal, we will aim to make you as comfortable as possible during this adjustment time with the dentures. Day 7 Well and truly now your gums will have begun to settle with the immediate prosthesis and some more adjustments might be required. Majority of the swelling should have gone by now and the dentures will feel less foreign in the mouth. Day 30/ 1 month At this stage your gums would have shrunk considerably and the immediate dentures may no longer be fitting so tightly. At this appointment, we will reline the dentures with a comfortable soft rubber liner until complete recession has occurred in the mouth. Day 90/ 3 months At this stage your gums have had 3 months to settle with the immediate dentures and you have plenty of practice eating, smiling and talking with them. Your gums have now well and truly resorbed and it’s time for the reline! The reline A denture reline is a restoration of the fitting surface between your denture and mouth tissue. It's an effective way to improve the fit and extend the life of your dentures. This process requires us to have your post-extraction dentures for the full day, usually beginning with one early morning appointment and ending with an afternoon appointment to guarantee that you have your smile back in your mouth within the day. We always recommend a movie day in at home while you wait for this process to be completed – perfect opportunity for some R&R! The end of your treatment Now that you have your newly relined dentures and they’re fitting great our treatment for your new immediate dentures has come to an end. We always encourage all our patients to book in for a free check-up every year, as the mouth does change as time goes on.

Here's 6 tips for getting used to them FASTER. - Published: 2018-01-28 - Modified: 2019-09-24 - URL: https://denturesatvarsity.com.au/getting-used-to-new-dentures/ How to get used to new dentures Getting used to new dentures can sometimes take quite a while, especially if it’s the first set that you’ve ever worn. In many cases, learning to adapt to the feel of the lower denture can require somewhat more time than the upper denture as the lower denture is typically less secure and your tongue can feel a little cramped. It can take up to a number of weeks before you are completely comfortable with them. Any teething issues that occur at the beginning will often disappear after a brief time. During this stage of denture familiarisation, it’s more about the patient than the dental technicians. At Dentures at Varsity, we strive to develop natural looking dentures that enhance your personal appearance. Your new dentures are positioned in the same fashion that your original teeth were, allowing them to offer necessary reinforcement for your cheeks and lips. This helps to rejuvenate any sagging attributed to the loss of your original teeth. For first time wearers of full dentures, it’s completely natural for you to feel slightly different to what you’re used to. Within a short time, this feeling will pass and any insecurities that tooth loss may have been causing you will have vanished. Your dental technician will work with you tirelessly to ensure that you are completely satisfied with your new dentures. As your mouth begins to adapt to your new dentures, any frustrations you may experience during the first stages will quickly disappear. A powerful strategy that patients can employ to rapidly resolve any speech issues is to read aloud. Patients may find their mouths producing more saliva than usual when they first begin wearing their dentures, which is completely normal. To combat this, drink water to help dilute your saliva and swallow more regularly. These early stage quirks will diminish before long and your saliva levels will return to normal. Learning how to eat with your dentures can take some getting used to, as your mouth needs time to learn how to interface correctly with your new oral prosthetic. Some patients who come to us, find that the dimensions of their face have actually contracted, due to prolonged use of poorly fitting and badly eroded dentures. Your new dentures will restore your jaw to its correct position, which may alter your eating capabilities momentarily. Your dentures will reestablish your original facial dimensions once more, ultimately resulting in enhanced eating efficiency. For patients who are just beginning to learn how to eat with dentures, it’s recommended that you eat carefully chopped portions of food with smaller bites. This teaches you to adapt to your new bite. When just starting out, never attempt to eat crunchy, tough or stringy foods until you are more proficient with your dentures. Try not to bite down on your front teeth when eating food as this can potentially affect the alignment of them over time. Instead, choose to bite down on the sides towards your (new) back teeth. Whilst your dentures will require some time before you become fully confident using them, the premium grade prosthetics offered by Dentures at Varsity will allow you to once again take pleasure in eating all your favourite foods. For patients wearing full dentures, there are number of things that can be done to ensure a faster transition: Slice your food into small portions and don’t chew too fast Chew on the left and right sides of mouth simultaneously, rather than just chewing on a particular side Avoid biting down on pieces of food using your front denture teeth How long you choose to wear your dentures each day is entirely up to you, but we strongly advise patients with new dentures to leave them in, even when going to sleep at night. Once your gums have had enough time to adjust to them however, your dentures should be removed before going to sleep. This enables your gums to be cleansed by the saliva on your tongue. For learn more about looking after your dentures, please refer to our Denture Care page. Some patients who have their old dentures replaced with a new set may experience some pain to begin with. This is because the inner profile of their mouth may have changed somewhat since having their old dentures made for them. When your new dentures are created, they are made to precisely match the inner profile of your mouth at that point in time, so this difference in profiles can put pressure on new regions of your gums, causing soreness. This is to be expected, but if the pain does not recede after a few days then we can help ease the pain by altering them for you. If the inflammation is considerable, remove your dentures immediately and contact us urgently. If you have partial dentures, your prosthetics are typically reinforced by your original teeth and gums. If you are not accustomed to where partial dentures, you may experience some mild discomfort during the few first few days, while your mouth adapts to them. If a new set of dentures is causing you pain or if you have an old, existing set that is causing persistent grief, arrange for an appointment with one of our experienced dental technicians, who can examine them for you and determine if your dentures need to be repaired, relined or in the case of very old dentures, replaced with a new set.

To ensure your dentures remain in excellent condition, we strongly recommend following these steps: Clean your flexible acrylic dentures on a daily basis by soaking them in a denture cleanser for around 15 minutes Remove any loose debris by gently running your dentures under water A good idea is to wash your dentures immediately after eating to make the task of removing debris easier Always take extreme care when handling your dentures, as dropping them over the sink or onto the ground can damage them. The teeth are more susceptible to breakage than the plastic resin, as the material is more brittle Brush your natural often and consult with our technicians if you encounter any pain using your dentures For a more comprehensive guide to keeping your dentures clean, please refer to our denture care page.

Learn how to look after your dentures with our gold coast denture care best practices. - Published: 2017-10-19 - Modified: 2022-07-19 - URL: https://denturesatvarsity.com.au/denture-care-gold-coast/ Denture Care Advice Learn how to look after your dentures, with our denture care best practices. Knowing how to correctly look after your dentures will improve their longevity. Your denture should be looked after in the same manner that your regular teeth should be looked after. Cleaning your dentures on a daily basis helps to prevent bacteria related infections, helps to protect your gums and helps to preserve any remaining natural teeth that you may have. It’s strongly advised that you wash your dentures before going to bed every night, at least once a day and following meals, if necessary. The recommended routine for cleaning your dentures is: Brush them Soak them Brush them again It’s always a good idea to clean your dentures over a body of water or over something that provides adequate cushioning such as a small towel, blanket or such, which helps to prevent damage to your dentures in the event that they are dropped. Wash them with a denture cleanser to help remove stains or unwanted gunk. Brush your dentures in the same fashion that you would with your regular teeth, but avoid brushing them too rigorously as this can tarnish them. Attempting to clean your dentures with bleach can have disastrous consequences. Bleach can permanently damage the structural integrity of your dentures, making them far more brittle and liable to breakage. Bleach can also ruin the aesthetics of your dentures, completely destroying their lustre and lifelike appearance. In addition to avoiding bleach, be sure to never clean your dentures with high temperature water, as this can distort the shape, ruining the alignment of them with your gums. Extra care and caution must be taken when cleaning chrome dentures. Some standard denture cleansers can actually be detrimental to the metals, so we recommend speaking to one of our dental technicians, who can advise you on the safest methods for cleaning them. When patients first acquire their new dentures, we strongly recommend that they leave them in, even when going to bed. Once your gums have had sufficient time to adapt to them, we then suggest removing them before going to sleep each night, as this allows your gums to be cleansed by the saliva on your tongue. Some patients may discover that they have an excess build-up of tartar (also known as calculus) on their dentures, which can be difficult to cleanse without the proper equipment. Bring your dentures in to our clinic and we can have them professionally cleaned for you at our onsite lab. We’ll have your dentures looking as immaculate as the day you first bought them. The cleaning process only takes a matter of moments to complete.

They are the most durable of all partial dentures and tend to last much longer than their acrylic-based counterparts. Advantages of Cobalt Chrome Dentures Strength - owing to the inherent qualities of cobalt and chrome, these metal framework dentures are far sturdier and stronger than other partial dentures. This results in a higher resistance to breakage. Stability – chrome dentures possess a greater level of stability than other partials, allowing them to retain their original form remarkably well. Comfort – in addition to offering superior strength, cast metal dentures are renowned for their exceptional comfort. For many patients, the sheer size of their dentures can be an issue. Chrome dentures are lightweight and less cumbersome than alternative partials. Hygiene – there is less build-up of food, plaque and other residual gunk on the polished surface of metal dentures, resulting in a more sanitary solution for patients. Grip – the metal clasps on cobalt-chrome partial dentures can be adjusted to deliver optimal stability and are less prone to breakage and loss of tension. This ensures a more enjoyable eating experience for the wearer. Convenience – denture teeth attached to the cobalt/chrome base plate can be readily replaced, avoiding the need to recreate the entire denture. Also, unlike acrylic dentures, an upper metal-based partial denture does not need to cover the entire roof of the mouth. Ideal Candidates for Chrome Partial Dentures A chrome cobalt prosthesis are ideal for patients whose remaining natural teeth are in good condition and unlikely to fall out anytime soon. Obtaining chrome dentures requires several appointments, which involve: Inspection and assessment of your oral tissues Initial impression of your teeth and gums Recording of your bite is taken Construction of the metal denture framework Evaluation of the appearance and shape of the subsequent framework Fitting of the denture to your mouth, with fine adjustments made if necessary to provide a precise fit that delivers maximum comfort Once the chrome alloy dentures have been created and you are satisfied with the fit, it’s always a good idea to arrange an appointment with us from time to time to let us examine your dentures and ensure that they are causing no discomfort or other issues for you. Typically, chrome dentures can be expected to last between 5 and 10 years. However, over the course of their lifetime, cast partial dentures may fracture and will need to be repaired.

There are some disadvantages that patients experience including pain, awkwardness and inconvenience as well as difficulty pronouncing words. Most commonly patients find it difficult to chew a variety of foods. There are many modern implant based tooth solutions in which can be offered in order to avoid the disadvantages faced with unsecured dentures. Not only do they offer an improvement on speech, comfort and chewing, they offer an overall improvement on the quality of life. The cost of implant supported dentures are dependent on each individual, and can be established upon a diagnostic consultation. Traditional removable dentures have always been first choice for people who have had dental problems however implant retained dentures are more commonly becoming first choice due to a host of benefits. Dentures are categorised by either a partial or a full set and are generally made from a plastic or chrome base. Artificial teeth are placed on the frame and together they emulate a natural mouth. Missing teeth not only can impact the appearance of a person, they can have negative health consequences such as inability to eat and speak. Bone structure can be compromised when teeth are missing however Gold Coast implant dentures can aid in retaining facial structure as the teeth are assisting in holding everything in place. It generally takes between 5-7 months to create a set of implant-stabilised dentures. This is of course dependent on the individual and the treatment plan determined in the initial consultation based on their needs. The implant placement is established in the first consultation where the dentist evaluates the x-rays and general condition of the mouth in order to find the area in the jawbone with a higher bone mass. This is often at the front of the mouth, and is the most preferred area due to the decreased amount of nerves that may complicate the implant placement. The temporary denture is required unless you already have an existing denture for the missing teeth. As discussed above there are many benefits as to why patients do prefer Implant Retained Dentures. In summary; Attachment-retained dentures are more comfortable and often do not feel any different to natural teeth – they restore your mouth to its most natural state Implant-anchored dentures also prevent sore spots and pressure points faced with regular removable dentures Reduces bone loss that would normally be faced when no teeth are present. Assists in maintaining facial structure Enhances your overall quality of life Initial Consultation Prior to any work commencing on the implant-retained prosthesis, a consultation will be required to evaluate each individual case. The consultation will comprise of an evaluation of overall health of the mouth/ dental records, x-rays and impressions of your gums & teeth. The impressions are also taken for the temporary denture to be placed on after the first procedure. The aim of doing these such things will determine the placement of the implants as well as the quality and quantity of the bone. A costing will be established in this consultation that encompasses a treatment plan also. First Procedure The first procedure involves placing the dental implants in the jawbone by making incisions in the gums where established in the initial consultation. The dental implants are drilled into the bone securely and the incision in then stitched up. The temporary denture is then put in placed in a way that causes no direct pressure on the dental implants. Often a soft denture reline is required to take the pressure off the gums. The second procedure timing is dependent on whether the dental implants were placed on the lower jawbone (3-4 months later) or the upper (5-6 months later). During this period, Osseointegration happens whereby the bone and implants are biologically fused together. Second Procedure Upon the second procedure, the dentist will take X-rays to establish whether the bone has become fused with the implants. If the fusion is on track, the dentist will then make a small incision in the gum to expose the top of the implant. This allows the dentist to then place a healing cap (or collar) which will remain place for up to 14 days - on the head of each implant which will then keep the implant separate from the gum. At this point, the temporary denture can be realigned or adjusted. 14 days after this procedure, the healing caps are removed and replaced with regular abutments. A further impression can be taken at this time as the gum should be fully healed. This impression will then be the basis of creation for the permanent denture. Try-in and insertion This is the final stage of the implant denture process and normally takes place 5 – 7 months after the initial consult. Once established that the dental framework fits with the metal bar placed on the abutments, the artificial teeth can be temporarily placed on the framework in wax. If the denture try-in is successful, the teeth will be permanently lodged into the framework. The structure of the framework will be created to support the chosen implant attachment junction you have chosen – ball or bar. Another visit will be scheduled after this consult to insert the completed denture.

Aside from the disruption to fundamental human functions such as the ability to eat, talk, smile and laugh, the loss of one’s teeth can be damaging to their self-confidence. Our line of full dentures at our Gold Coast clinic restore your self-esteem, help to restore sagging muscle tissue that occurs in the absence of natural teeth and leaves you feeling confident in your appearance once more. Teeth play a vital role in supporting the facial muscles surrounding the mouth, cheeks and lips. In the absence of teeth, this facial tissue tends to sag and droop. The loss of natural teeth causes the jawbone to diminish, leading the bottom half of the face to wilt and wither. Along with the shrivelling of the gums and poorly made dentures that do not provide adequate reinforcement for the lips and cheeks, the facial tissue loses its structure and volume. This loss of facial form results in the patient appearing older. The Benefits of Full Dentures Our highly skilled dental technicians develop denture solutions that fit each patient with absolute precision. Our complete dentures result in facial muscles that appear tighter once more, while any sunken features appear fuller, helping to recreate a more natural, healthier and youthful appearance. The benefits of our full arch dentures include: Beautifully sculpted prosthetic teeth that possess the shape, gloss and shine of natural teeth Facial tissue affected by the loss of teeth, such as in and around the mouth, cheeks and lips will be revitalised; the muscles will appear tighter, while any sunken areas will appear fuller Precise duplication of gum profile and colour A long lasting complete prosthesis that is composed of cutting-edge materials, offer a perfect fit and provide superior comfort for the wearer A full dental prosthesis has been around for decades.

In most cases it will be very difficult for people to tell that you are wearing a dentureGenerally moving from an old generic type denture to one of our premium custom dentures, no speech should be altered. However, if it’s your first time wearing a denture it is not uncommon to experience some speech changes. Within a short time and with practice all, your speech with return back to normalIn most cases getting use to a new denture depends on what changes and improvements have been made to the new one from the old prosthesis. We always suggest an adjustment period of one to two weeks before things start feeling normal again. We understand that all our clients would love to jump straight in to that beautiful steak and chips dinner after receiving a new set of dentures. However, there is always a small break-in period for new dentures. We recommend starting slow with smaller bites until you get use to your new teeth. The top denture stays in place with muco-compressive suction and the bottom denture can be much the same if the mandible allows. Generally, though, the bottom denture works off stability and grip more than suction, as the tongue is connected to the floor of the mouth. We generally recommend getting a denture relined every 2. 5 years and recommend replacing your dentures every 5-7 years. The mouth changes around 5-7% every year and a properly made denture has slight wear and tear every year. Therefore, it’s crucial to get a refresh to prevent any jaw related issues in your mouth. Full dentures can definitely be repaired. Dentures repairs usually can be done within the hour if enough notice is given and can be as good as new!

See our denture reline services page for information. Depending on the age of the denture, it’s either time to reline the denture or think about replacing it with a new set. There are many different ways to clean your dentures. We always recommended soaking them overnight in a denture cleaning tablet and gently brushing them clean morning and night.

Even the loss of a single tooth can have disastrous consequences for your existing teeth and have a dramatic effect on your overall oral health.

This can create difficulties when chewing, aggravating nearby muscles and causing pain in the temporomandibular joint.

Each set of dentures is meticulously arranged by hand, by our highly trained dental technicians who carefully fuse the teeth onto either a polymer base that closely replicates the colour of your existing gums or a lightweight alloy. Our prosthetic teeth emulate the look and feel of natural teeth, allowing patients to enjoy a renewed sense of self-confidence. There are several options when it comes to Gold Coast partial dentures, we offer the following: cast metal (chrome cobalt dentures), flexible partial dentures and acrylic partial dentures. The cast metal option and the flexible partials are our best partials. Chrome partial dentures are stronger, less bulky and provides a great fit. This partial has a metal framework to which our on-site laboratory will attach higher-quality denture teeth. This is a great option for patient who like smaller appliances in their mouth, due to the strength these types of dentures do last a lot longer than acrylic partials. Flexible partial dentures are made from a special material that gives you added comfort and fit. Ideal if you don’t like the feel of rigidity in your mouth and it’s a great way to have a seamless smile. Acrylic partial dentures are more affordable, but they tend to feel more bulky. This partial has an acrylic base into which the denture teeth are set and is attached to your natural teeth with small metal clasps. The Need to See a Prosthetist When seeking to obtain a set of partial dentures, patients must first consult with their dentist. Your dentist will inspect your mouth to determine if there are any issues that need to be tended to, such as gum disease, tooth decay or tooth loss. Your dentist will collaborate with our dental technicians to devise a customised treatment plan for you. If it’s discovered that you do require dental treatment, our technicians will have to be certain that your existing teeth are able to support the kind of partial denture that you need. Working with your dentist, we’ll be able to maximise the longevity of your natural teeth, using them to help strengthen and fortify your partial dentures. This close relationship guarantees the possible outcome for you. Your dentist will ensure that your teeth and gums remain in tip top condition and will advise you on how best to take care of your remaining natural teeth.

So Adrian started straight away, making me new dentures, and I’m so pleased they now fit perfectly, and I am pain free. I highly recommend Adrian at varsity. Patricia Cram 2021-04-23 For over 60 years I have worn a denture (since 11 years of age). During this time my visits to various dental prosthetists left me in no doubt my situation was 'a challenge'. My first visit with Adrian set him apart from the others. His expertise and calm assurance immediately gave me confidence. And he did a marvelous job! without once alluding to 'the challenge'. No more lipstick on teeth :-), no more trying to hide my smile :-). I particularly commend Adrian to anyone who, like me, needs a little extra experience and expertise. Adrian, you're the best! maree quinn 2021-03-31 The best experience ever. I was so worried about the end result and Aaron was just a professional to deal with . I have so much confidence now after years of not smiling. My new teeth look so natural I can not stop smiling. Big fat thank you to Aaron and his team. --- > At Dentures at Varsity, Our Dental Fee schedule will give you an indication of dental costs.

How To Take Care of Your New or Old Dentures? Click the Video and See! Whilst all dentures are marvels of modern-day engineering and design, they are artificial nonetheless and do require some time to get used to, at first. When you are just starting out with your new set of dentures, we highly recommend that you start with softer foods that don’t require heavy chewing. It’s always a good idea to let your knife and fork do most of the chewing for you, by slicing your food into small pieces. Once you are confident eating with your new dentures, you’ll be able to steadily resume your regular eating habits. Denture adhesives provide the added assurance that your new teeth won’t slip about during the day. Whilst denture glue can provide extra support, they should never be used to fasten poorly-aligned dentures. If your dental prosthetics don’t feel sturdy and secure or cause pain and discomfort, we strongly advise that you contact us as soon as possible so that we can examine them for you. Denture glue is completely harmless when used responsibly. The only time denture adhesives can cause problems is when it is applied far too liberally to poorly-aligned dentures, which can damage gum tissue and other areas of the wearer’s mouth. Dentures are precision made and even the slightest tweak or alteration could damage or even ruin them. Furthermore, dentures that have undergone ‘DIY modifications’ could also damage your gums. If your dentures become chipped or broken, consult with one of our specialists who can take a look at them for you and make all necessary denture repairs as required. Denture relines and repairs are typically done in a matter of hours, ensuring minimal inconvenience to you. When carefully looked after, your dentures can last anywhere from several right up to 8 years before needing to be replaced. Throughout these years, your dentures suffer from natural wear and tear and will need to be relined or restored to guarantee that they retain their comfort and functionality. We suggest that you visit your dentist at least every 6 months for a routine check-up and teeth cleaning to ensure optimal oral health. http://www. prevention. com/health/health-concerns/best-and-worst-foods-dentures This link is a great and interesting read on denture beginners and veterans.

Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to denture comfort and our specialists will ensure that you receive the ones that most satisfy you. Patients who have lost all or almost all of their teeth should enquire about wearing full dentures, while patients who still have existing teeth should seek to acquire partial dentures. At Dentures at Varsity, we want everyone to enjoy a happy, healthy smile! The cost of dentures depends on the style of denture (full or partial) and the materials used to create them. At Dentures at Varsity, we always aim to provide cost-effective denture products for our clients, while maintaining superior quality.

Dentures replicate real teeth, both in appearance, texture and functionality, ensuring that your appearance remains intact. Your dentures guarantee a perfect smile, with no more missing teeth in sight. Knowing how to correctly look after your dentures will improve their longevity.

Discover how to protect your oral health and ensure comfort overnight. - Published: 2025-06-23 - Modified: 2025-06-24 - URL: https://denturesatvarsity.com.au/sleep-dentures-mouth/ - Categories: Denture Repairs In Gold Coast “Can I sleep with dentures in my mouth? ” is a question many Australians ask. Unfortunately, many people believe fallacies about wearing dentures while sleeping that have disastrous consequences. You don’t have to fall into that trap and compromise your long-term oral health. As the Gold Coast’s trusted experts in denture repairs, we can help clear up confusion about this issue. This blog will explain the risks and advantages of sleeping with dentures in mouth, empowering you to make informed decisions for your long-term health, well-being, and peace of mind. What Are Dentures? Dentures are removable dental prosthetics that replace missing teeth and stabilise facial muscles. These personalised tooth replacements are usually made of acrylic or porcelain. Depending on the number of missing teeth, patients can opt for partial or complete dentures. Dentures replace missing teeth and restore a person’s ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently, allowing them to enjoy a better quality of life. These dental prosthetics have several modifications. Dental implants are tiny threaded posts inserted in the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. Removable implant-retained dentures latch onto these implants, offering better stability than conventional prosthetic teeth. On the other hand, implant-supported (permanent or hybrid) dentures aren’t removable, providing patients who prefer non-removable prosthetics with a convenient option. Only a dentist can remove implant-supported dentures, which require more complete cleaning than the removable version. Many people wonder if sleeping with their dentures is safe. Although it can be safe, please be aware that you’re also taking some risks. We will discuss these in the following section. How Does Everyday Life Change With Dentures? Patients may experience discomfort and difficulties speaking or eating when wearing dentures for the first time. However, this is a temporary condition that will subside over time. Nevertheless, we strongly encourage denture wearers to practise talking and eating before leaving their homes to offset discomfort and boost their confidence in public. Prosthetic teeth also change how you taste food. Teeth capture flavour molecules from food and guide them toward the taste buds. The absence of teeth can compromise and slightly affect the food’s flavour. Disadvantages of Wearing Dentures Overnight The risks of wearing dentures overnight include the following: Enhanced aspiration risk: Wearing dentures in your sleep can loosen them, cause them to fall out of place, and possibly cause you to inhale them into your lungs. Unfortunately, this scenario can lead to serious health complications. Denture fracture: Wearing dentures overnight can increase the likelihood of breaking or cracking due to increased pressure from the constant contact between your pillow and prosthetic teeth. Dental health issues: Constantly using dentures can lead to oral health issues, including gingivitis or fungal infections. For this reason, we strongly urge patients to remove their prosthetic teeth and soak them in a dentist-approved solution overnight while their gums take a much-needed break. Pneumonia risk: Studies have shown that wearing dentures overnight can increase pneumonia risk. Wearing prosthetic teeth 24 hours daily can proliferate oral bacteria, which patients can inhale into their lungs and cause pneumonia. Dentures also make swallowing saliva challenging. Constant denture wearing can force moisture into the lungs and cause respiratory problems. Denture stomatitis risk: Dentures stomatitis is a byproduct of gum tissue inflammation and redness beneath prosthetic teeth. It is common among people who wear full upper dentures overnight. Resorption and bone loss: The former term refers to the gums wearing out and becoming brittle due to constant denture pressure. This scenario reshapes the jawline, changes a person’s facial appearance, and causes the dentures to fall out. Advantages of Wearing Dentures Overnight The advantages of using dentures while sleeping include the following: Enhanced confidence: Inexperienced denture wearers may feel awkward around family members or friends. Sleeping with dentures overnight can help boost their confidence in social settings. Denture position: Patients wearing dentures immediately after a tooth extraction will benefit from using them overnight. This strategy allows them to maintain the position of their prosthetic teeth and minimise swelling. Convenient morning routine: Sleeping with dentures overnight saves extra time cleaning and inserting them in the morning. Is Sleeping While Wearing Dentures Safe? Sleeping with dentures overnight can be safe. However, we strongly recommend that prosthetic teeth users consider their risks carefully and consult their dentists before using them while sleeping. Your practitioner can offer personalised advice and guidance based on your specific dental health requirements. It’s also critical to consider the following factors when sleeping with dentures: Daily cleaning: Regular denture cleaning is critical to remove food particles or bacteria that could cause issues when sleeping with prosthetic teeth. Please ensure thorough denture brushing and rinsing before sleeping. Jaw and gum considerations: Consulting a highly experienced dentist can help determine your gum and jawline condition. If your practitioner deems they’re too sensitive, he will recommend removing them and soaking them overnight so your gums can rest. Comfort: Can you sleep comfortably while wearing dentures? People accustomed to removing them before sleeping may experience discomfort if they wear them overnight. Conclusion As the Gold Coast’s trusted experts of denture relines, we recommend removing your prosthetic teeth and soaking them in a dentist-approved solution overnight. This strategy ensures healthy gums, promotes optimal oral health, and prevents denture damage, offering patients long-term peace of mind. Conversely, we recommend that people who prefer sleeping with dentures use a resilient adhesive to prevent shifting, maximise comfort, and ensure a good night’s sleep.

Discover prevention tips to maintain oral health with Dentures at Varsity. - Published: 2025-06-17 - Modified: 2025-06-18 - URL: https://denturesatvarsity.com.au/denture-stomatitis-symptoms-treatment-prevention/ - Categories: Denture Repairs In Gold Coast While dentures can be a transformative solution, they can also lead to side effects like denture related stomatitis or oral thrush. If your dental practitioner recommends dental prosthetics, there’s no need to worry. With his professional guidance, you can effectively manage denture stomatitis and continue enjoying the benefits of your removable teeth. As the Gold Coast’s trusted service provider of denture repairs, we’re here to help. This blog will provide a comprehensive understanding of denture stomatitis, empowering patients with the knowledge they need to confidently manage their oral health and enjoy their dentures. What Is Denture Stomatitis? Denture stomatitis, also known as oral thrush or denture sore mouth, is an inflammatory condition that affects the oral mucosa (mouth lining). Health experts link this condition to Candida (yeast) overgrowth. Other denture stomatitis causes include the following: Oral mucosa inflammation and redness: Swelling and redness of the mouth lining are the most noticeable symptoms. Ill-fitting dentures: Improperly fitting dentures can irritate and traumatise the oral tissues, making them prone to infection and inflammation. Poor dental hygiene: Bad dental hygiene can proliferate oral bacteria and plaque, leading to denture stomatitis. Prolonged wear: Wearing dentures overnight can moisten the oral mucosa and promote Candida growth. What Are the Signs And Symptoms of Denture Stomatitis? The symptoms of denture stomatitis include the following: Mouth and throat soreness: Mouth and throat soreness and pain or discomfort when swallowing are common signs of denture stomatitis due to inflammation from yeast growth. Since “stomatitis” means “inflammation of the mouth,” you may require denture replacement when experiencing pain or discomfort. Red or white oral patches: Mouth patches can indicate denture stomatitis or mouth cancer, proving oral health can affect general health. For this reason, we strongly recommend visiting your dental practitioner to identify potential issues early and prevent them from worsening. Fortunately, early detection and timely treatment can make oral patches subside. If the symptoms persist, we strongly advise you to seek immediate professional assistance. Your dentist can recommend the most suitable intervention for your unique situation and provide much-needed relief and comfort. Cracked skin or soreness: Inflammation can cause cracked skin or soreness around the mouth corners. Dry, chapped lips or a cold sore can also cause this symptom. Halitosis: Denture stomatitis can lead to halitosis (bad breath) or a bad taste in the mouth. The latter can be challenging to manage, even with regular brushing or mouthwash use. A bad taste in the mouth can be a symptom of other dental issues, including gingivitis or periodontal disease. For this reason, we recommend consulting your dentist if the symptom doesn’t improve. How Can I Manage Denture Stomatitis? If your dentist diagnoses you with denture stomatitis, he will recommend several ways to help manage it and provide you with peace of mind. Many patients have experienced long-term relief from these interventions, so you can relax knowing you’re in good hands with a trusted dental practitioner. The best denture stomatitis management strategies include the following: Correct denture cleaning: Your dentist will recommend a complete denture cleaning to eliminate Candida accumulation. He will also emphasise regular, thorough denture cleaning, which involves manual brushing and soaking them in the prescribed cleaning solution. Proper dental prosthetic sanitation is critical to treating denture stomatitis and guaranteeing long-term oral health. Regular denture removal: When inflammation causes regular discomfort, your dentist may suggest frequent breaks from wearing your dentures, allowing your gums to rest and recover. On the other hand, if poor-fitting or damaged dentures cause discomfort, we strongly urge patients to act swiftly and consider denture relines or repairs to ensure an excellent fit and long-term dental health. Antifungal medication: Antifungal medication in lozenge, tablet, or liquid form can help treat denture stomatitis by eliminating Candida yeast, which causes inflammation and redness in the oral mucosa. Hence, antifungals allow your mouth lining to heal and normalise. How Can I Prevent Denture Stomatitis? You can prevent denture stomatitis by following these recommendations: Practise consistent oral hygiene: Proper oral hygiene includes regular, thorough prosthetic teeth cleaning. We recommend rinsing them with water after eating to eliminate food particles and debris, brushing them daily with a non-abrasive cleaner, and soaking them overnight in a dentist-approved solution for optimum results. Replace or fix ill-fitting dentures: Ill-fitting dentures can damage your gums and make them susceptible to infection. Uncomfortable, shifting, or painful dentures require scheduling an appointment at your dental clinic. Your dentist can repair, reline, or replace your prosthetic teeth to prevent denture stomatitis and ensure long-term oral health. Quit smoking: Dental experts have concluded that smoking is one of the leading risk factors for denture stomatitis. Although the exact reason is unknown, they suspect cigarette chemicals cause this disorder. Smoking also compromises bone jaw density, causing poor-fitting dentures. Address vitamin imbalances: Vitamin B6, B12, and folic acid deficiencies can increase the risk of denture stomatitis. Consuming plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables ensures that these deficiencies and oral thrush risk are minimised. We strongly recommend drinking plenty of water to improve oral health and minimise Candida yeast growth. This strategy will benefit patients with dental implants by creating a hygienic oral environment that supports their implanted teeth. Are Oral Thrush And Denture Stomatitis The Same? Denture stomatitis is an oral thrush variation in patients wearing prosthetic teeth. Unfortunately, early-stage symptoms aren’t usually noticeable because they don’t always cause immediate pain or discomfort. However, the symptoms may worsen over time. We strongly urge you to consult your dental practitioner if your dentures cause pain or discomfort so you can enjoy high-quality daily living and excellent oral health. Some medications or medical conditions can increase oral thrush risk, including the following: Antibiotics: Antibiotics are an excellent remedy for bacterial infections because they eliminate the microorganisms that cause them. Unfortunately, they can also create a microorganism imbalance in your oral cavity, leading to Candida yeast growth and oral thrush. We strongly urge patients with single- or double-tooth implants to be careful because oral thrush can compromise healing and make dental hygiene... --- > Discover the Fastest way to heal denture sores.

Although they can be painful and challenging, the appropriate interventions provide relief, a better quality of life, and a radiant, captivating smile. There’s no need to worry If you have been struggling with denture sores. As a trusted service provider of cost-effective denture repairs with over a decade of industry experience, we’re here to help. This blog explains the fastest way to heal denture sores, providing you with relief, long-term peace of mind, and comfort. What Are Denture Sores? Denture sores (denture stomatitis) are an oral thrush that affects dental prosthetic wearers. The tissues where dentures cover the gums are swollen and discoloured. Studies have shown that denture sores affect 67% of patients worldwide. Individuals who wear full dentures are more likely to experience the condition than those who wear partial or implant-supported dentures. What Causes Denture Sores? Candida, a type of yeast-like fungus, causes denture sores. While small amounts are normal, an imbalance can cause the fungus to proliferate, leading to a fungal infection (candidiasis). Although several fungi can cause denture stomatitis, Candida albicans is the most common trigger. What Are The Denture Sore Risk Factors? Denture sore risk factors include the following: Excessive sugar and carbohydrate intake. Broad-spectrum antibiotics. Alcoholic beverages. Poor oral hygiene. Smoking or vaping. Wearing dentures too long (even while sleeping). A weak immune system. Age (the condition is prevalent among individuals at least 65 years old). Nutritional deficiencies. Endocrine dysfunction. Can Dentures Cause Mouth Sores? Dentures can cause mouth sores because of poor-fitting dental prosthetics, poor hygiene, and allergic reactions. How To Heal Gum Sores From Dentures This section explains various denture sore relief solutions, offering dental prosthetic patients comfort and a better quality of life. As the Gold Coast’s trusted dental relines specialist, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with us to rule out an allergic reaction, which requires denture removal to alleviate the symptoms. Here are time-tested strategies on how to treat denture sores: Denture adhesives: These adhesives help secure loose lower dentures to the gums, minimising movement and discomfort. A denture bonding agent helps prevent sore spots and irritation from poorly fitting prosthetics. Oral pain relief products: Using an oral pain relief product with the topical anaesthetic benzocaine provides immediate relief from denture-caused gum irritation. Apply the gel to the affected areas for temporary relief. We recommend scheduling an appointment with a trusted dental practitioner to rule out severe conditions requiring different treatments, including periodontitis and gingivitis. No dentures while sleeping: Removing dentures before sleeping at night improves gum health and minimises irritation, pressure, and infections.

RPD can also be a viable choice for long- or short-term solutions, depending on your requirements and preferences. Why you Should Think About Using Dentures to Replace Your Teeth For many years, people have used dentures to replace lost, rotting, or unhealthy natural teeth.

Dentures are removable prosthetic teeth that need fixatives like pastes or wafers to stay in place. The process of applying adhesives is typically not enjoyable because the pasty mass leaves a bad taste in the mouth in addition to an uncomfortable mouth sensation. Additionally, there are times when the connection between the gums and dentures is unstable, which results in discomfort when you eat, cough, or grin. This frequently happens in public places.

It is the sensation you may get when there is insufficient saliva in your oral cavity to keep your mouth moist. A dry mouth is a symptom of a problem, not the problem itself. It's usually a side effect of some medications, such as antihistamines or decongestants used to treat allergies or colds. This condition is most common in older people, affecting one out of every five of them. As the western population ages, the number of people suffering from chronic dry mouth syndrome grows. Unfortunately, no remedy has yet been discovered. Only saliva-enzyme replacement therapy can help patients control this disease. What is the significance of saliva in the body? Saliva aids in the health of the mouth and teeth. It lubricates the mouth and keeps it moist at all times. It also aids in the improvement of taste sensitivity and the initiation of the digestive process due to the presence of important enzymes and protein. However, a lack of saliva might result in issues such as: Poor breath. Discomfort. Cavities, tooth decay, and other mouth disorders are examples of oral hygiene issues. Denture-wearing issues Speech and swallowing difficulties Potential causes When the salivary glands begin to generate less saliva, it might cause dry mouth. The following are some of the most common reasons of dry mouth: Medications. Several drugs (both prescription and over-the-counter) can lower your body's production of saliva. If you read the label on your prescription, you might notice "dry mouth" listed as a side effect. Among the medications that induce dry mouth are: Antihistamines Decongestants High blood pressure medications Medication to treat diarrhoea Relaxants for the muscles Urinary incontinence medication Dehydration Inadequate fluid intake can occasionally cause dry mouth. For example, if you're unwell, don't drink enough water, or sweat excessively, Medical problems: Diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and Sjogren's syndrome are all conditions that can cause dry mouth. Sjogren's syndrome is an autoimmune condition in which the body attacks the moisture-producing glands. It typically affects women who have gone through menopause. Although dry mouth is not a normal feature of ageing, older people use more drugs than the general population, and many of these medications induce dry mouth. Dry mouth treatment How to Deal with Dry Mouth The treatment for dry mouth is determined by a number of things, including if the person has an underlying ailment or disease, as well as whether they are taking medications that may be causing dry mouth. If a cause is identified, specific steps can be taken to mitigate its impact. Medications: Your doctor will most likely evaluate your medication, and if it is discovered to be the cause of your dry mouth, the doctor will either change the dosage or prescribe another drug that will alleviate your symptoms. Increasing saliva production: To help increase saliva production, your doctor may prescribe medicine such as pilocarpine or cevimeline. Treatment for dry mouth symptoms consists mostly on four areas: boosting the flow of saliva, replenishing lost secretions, managing dental cavities, and taking particular steps, such as treating infection. Conclusion If you have dry mouth syndrome, you should pay close attention to your oral and dental hygiene. Brushing and flossing your teeth on a daily basis are vital. Plaque removal and treatment of gum infections, inflammation, and dental cavities are other required stages. --- > If you're considering getting a dental implant, here are a few things you'll need to know.

Dentures were the only option for repairing missing teeth a few years ago. It was, however, a huge bother that caused a lot of suffering and pain. Today, there is the option of dental implants, which are the gold standard in tooth replacement. Dental implants are unnatural tooth-like structures that appear natural and robust and are a more pleasurable option for replacing lost teeth.

Because the jawbone is no longer stimulated after a tooth is gone, the functionality of the bone in that location tends to deteriorate over time.

Dental implants, as opposed to permanent bridges, will assist retain the health of your jawbone. They will become less costly in the future.

Learn how to best treat Xerostomia. - Published: 2017-03-24 - Modified: 2024-10-16 - URL: https://denturesatvarsity.com.au/xerostomia-dentures-dry-mouth/ - Categories: New Member of the Team - Tags: Xerostomia Adequate amounts of saliva are very important and essential to denture wearers. Saliva helps create suction between the acrylic of the denture base and the ridge of gum tissue on which the denture sits. Saliva also acts as a lubricant to prevent irritation and abrasion to the gum tissue that comes in contact with the denture. Conversely, dry mouth (Xerostomia) may lead to loose dentures, irritations, sores and possible infection for denture wearers. Common Causes of Xerostomia: Medications - There are over 500 commonly taken medications that can cause dry mouth as a side effect. Some of these include blood pressure medicine, decongestants and anti-depressants. Illnesses - There are systemic conditions such as Sjogrens’s Syndrome, chronic diarrhea, salivary gland tumors and liver dysfunction that can reduce the amount of saliva production. Habits - Breathing through one’s mouth regularly or inadequate consumption of fluids, causing dehydration may also contribute to dry mouth. Radiation Treatment - A side effect of some radiation therapy that is use to treat certain cancers is reduced salivary gland function. Aging - As a person ages, it’s common for their salivary glands to produce less saliva, and, thus, a dry mouth results. Managing a Dry Mouth If a particular type of medication is a contributory factor to a patient’s dry mouth, they should consult their physician to see if there is an acceptable alternative drug that doesn’t produce dry mouth side effects. No medication should be arbitrarily stopped without first checking with the doctor whom prescribed the medication. There are substances that stimulate the production of saliva such as sugar-free hard candies and/or mouthwashes. There are also commercial salivary substitutes that can keep the mouth moist and more lubricated.
