Will Getting New Dentures More Often Prevent Facial Collapse?

I watched a YouTube video about how getting new dentures more often can help prevent facial collapse. If that works, I would like to know about dentists who offer frequent buyers’ plans and discounts for dentures.

After Six Denture Repair Kits, My Gums Are So Sore

Over the last 10 months, I’ve used six denture repair kits. My denture broke near the gumline, and the repair isn’t lasting. My gums are sore now. I wonder if my repair attempts made the denture worse. I’m not sure any dentist can fix it. The denture was already a bit loose, but now it […]

My Dental Implants and Crowns are Falling Apart

My full-mouth reconstruction is falling apart. The implants and crowns are no good. Within three years, I lost two veneers and three crowns.

How Many Implants for an Overdenture?

After wearing dentures for 22 years, I am ready to invest in an overdenture. I am 70 years old, active, and in good health. I am a non-smoker, which I’ve read is essential to helping my implants last. Longevity in my family convinces me that it is worth it to get an overdenture. I am […]
