Nationwide Denture Repair.

One or more follow-up appointments are generally needed soon after you receive your dentures so that your oral health-care provider can make any necessary adjustments. Never attempt to adjust or repair your dentures yourself. Never bend any part of the clasp or metal attachments yourself; doing so can weaken the metal structure. “Do-it-yourself” repair kits may permanently damage your dentures and over-the-counter glues may contain harmful chemicals.

Dentures that don’t fit properly can cause irritation and sores in your mouth and on your gums. Be sure to contact your oral health care provider if your denture breaks, cracks, or chips, or if one of the teeth becomes loose. Oftentimes, he or she can make the necessary adjustment or repair on the same day. For some complicated repairs, your denture may have to be sent to a special dental laboratory.
