Broken Dentures
Dentures can break or become damaged for many reasons, including being dropped on hard surfaces, poor fitting dentures, general wear and tear and dentures that have loosened over time. Did you know that your jaw and gumlines can change shape over time? That means that if you have false teeth, they can become loose or ill-fitting. If your denture breaks, your dentist is the person who can fix them. Over-the-counter glues can contain harmful chemicals, and you should stay away from them. If the break is severe, your denture may require to be sent to laboratory to be repaired. This takes a few hours to a day. Call immediately to arrange an appointment with your dentist or Emergency Dentist Edinburgh.
