In a dental laboratory, our trained technician fixes dentures under the direction of a dentist. Before bringing the denture to the lab, the dentist will examine it thoroughly and provide the lab technician with detailed instructions to guarantee a smooth repair procedure.
Which type of adhesive is OK for use with dentures?
Denture cracks and splits cannot be fixed with regular home glue. Because the adhesive cannot survive the stresses placed on it when chewing, the denture will break once more. It frequently happens that the second break is worse than the first, which could render the denture completely ineffective. Keeping an extra or old pair of dentures on hand is a smart idea in case of denture emergencies.
Is using super glue to repair dentures acceptable?
No. Never attempt to patch your dentures using super glue or any other kind of household adhesive. Super glue contains dangerous ingredients that could irritate gums, thus it shouldn’t be used on anything that comes into contact with the mouth.
Second, if there is super glue residue left behind and it affects the surrounding tissue, the denture repair process could become more challenging. It could also result in your dentures breaking completely, becoming more brittle, or changing how they fit. Super glue will eventually dissolve in your mouth because it is partially soluble in water.You should never try to fix your own Denture Repair. People often make mistakes that aggravate the dentures in an attempt to rectify them. Always have your dentures repaired by a dentist if you want hassle-free, long-lasting results.
Can dentures that are partially fixed?
The teeth and gum line of partial dentures are made of denture acrylic. Metal makes up the clasps and clips. In most cases, it is possible to treat tooth chips, breaks in the metal clasp, and cracks in the acrylic gum material quickly and affordably.
