Any denture appliances, such as a full or partial denture, will need to be maintained or repaired eventually. Whether the material degrades, your mouth's geography changes or the prosthetic appliance incurs some type of damage.
There are multiple reasons a denture may break. If the denture doesn't fit properly it can cause the denture to wear down prematurely. If this is the case, each time you chew you'll be putting pressure on the denture causing microfractures to form within the acrylic material causing the denture to become weaker over time. We'll make sure your denture fits you properly.
There are many services we offer here at Quick Denture Repair. Deep denture cleanings, hard or soft relines, adding metal mesh to reinforce your prosthetic & make it stronger, adding a teeth to an existing partial after extractions, replacing broken teeth, sculpting your prosthetics to make it look more realistic, etc. All types of repairs, simple and complex.
Dentures are usually made out of acrylic resin material. This material starts in a powder form. When mixed with polymer and monomer solutions it creates a moldable material that hardens over time. Our professional lab technician will create a custom fitting denture for ultimate comfort. The acrylic material is then cured which is a process that makes the denture harden and set in place providing its durability and strength.
We NEVER recommend trying to fix your dentures yourself. This is because in the process you may only cause more damage to the appliance which will only cost you more money down the road. Our recommendation is to call us at the first sign that your dentures need maintenance. Since we are such an affordable and convenient service, it would be in your best interest to have a professional denture repair technician repair your prosthetic in order to permanently resolve your denture issues.
