What You Need to Know About Dentures ?
Greetings from Drs. Pasch, Yam, Shirzadnia and Song!
Okay, you have false teeth and now you think that it should be the end of your dental worry, right? Well, that is in many cases wrong.
The gum ridges in our mouths can shrink with age, which causes dentures to become loose. Bone can also shrink, causing jaws not to line up properly. Ill-fitting dentures can cause sore spots in your mouth and stomach problems, the result of not being able to chew food properly. A loose denture could also cause changes in your facial features, adding a few more extra years to your young looking facial expression. Do have in mind though, that with time dentures wear off and cause the bite to collapse. ADA recommends that dentures be replaced every 4-6 years.
Dentures are breakable! Many of our patients think that once they have a denture made it will serve them for life. They are made of plastic, so they are delicate and fragile, and that makes them susceptible to fractures. During the chewing process different forces are used throughout the upper and lower jaws to masticate your food, and therefore the denture may fracture. Often, the appliance may break a few days after it initially suffered the fracture. The best way to approach it is to come in for a quick professional repair in our office even if the crack is as small as a hair line! That fallen tooth of the denture is also something you should not stress over. Yes, it can be a real night mare depending on the situation , but you can rest assured that we can perform same day denture repair during your lunchtime, so that you can flow back to your busy schedule in no time! Most of the denture repairs can be quickly addressed in our professional dental lab on premises within only a couple of hours.
In all cases, a denture-wearer should consider having a spare set, or a duplicate denture, on hand. Having a spare set will eliminate any extreme emergency situations you might experience if you only have one set.
If your dentures are loose, painful or just don't feel right, call our office for a consultation.
They may need to be adjusted, relined or completely remade (if they are completely
worn out). You may have noticed some products that claim to fix dentures.
When we make repairs, we use quality materials that are only available to dentists.
Over the counter product often contain harsh chemicals that only make matters worse and sometimes eliminated the possibility of a professional laboratory repair. Our recommendation is not to use crazy glue to repair your dentures at home.
If you're not satisfied with the look or feel of your dentures, or you have questions regarding dentures please don't hesitate to call our conveniently located Midtown Manhattan dental office at 212-689-0024 or email us at appts@newyorkdenturedental.com.

Denture Problems?
Greetings from Dr. Pasch, Dr Yam, Dr. Shirzadnia and Dr. Song!
Many denture wearers breathe a sigh of relief when they get their first pair of dentures, because they think their dental problems are over. Unfortunately, even the best dentures can't compete with natural teeth in ability to chew food efficiently and comfortably. As the years go by, the supporting ridges that remain after teeth have been removed gradually change and get smaller. For most patients, the dentures need to be "relined" or "refitted" every 2-4 years so that the denture will conform to the changing ridge. A large change in weight can also alter the shape of the mouth, causing changes in the fit.
Here are some ways to treat various denture problems:
Make sure your dentures fit. Over time, your gums and bones may change and your dentures won't fit as well. When this happens, your dentures need to be adjusted, modified, or replaced by your dentist. Never try to adjust your dentures yourself.
Speak slowly. When you first get dentures, it may be hard for you to say certain words. Be patient. Practice saying the challenging words aloud and speak slowly. If your dentures move around when you laugh or smile, gently bite down and swallow to put them back in place.
Eat soft foods. If you are having trouble eating, follow these tips: Take small bites of soft foods, such as eggs and yogurt. Don't eat anything sticky and chew your food slowly. When you chew, use both sides of your mouth at the same time. This prevents your dentures from moving forward or tipping. Eating will become easier as you get used to your dentures. In time, you should be able to eat most foods.
Use an adhesive ( zinc free). Denture adhesives help your dentures stay in place and make them feel more secure. But denture adhesives should not be used to fix old or poorly fitting dentures. When using an adhesive, follow the instructions carefully. Try not to use more than you need.
If you have questions about your dentures, please call our office at 212-689-0024 or email us at appts@newyorkdenturedental.com today.
Best Regards,
Herald Square Dental
& The Denture Center
P.S. If you have any friends or family members who you feel could use our services, please don't hesitate to have them call us. We'll be sure to take good care of them!

Do your dentures fit?
Greetings from Dr. Pasch, Dr. Yam, Dr. Shirzadnia, Dr. Song
Age brings wisdom and the benefit of a unique perspective that can only be achieved through your life experiences. It can be a beautiful thing. Unfortunately, it also brings with it dental problems that may only be resolved with dentures. Okay, you have false teeth. That should be the end of it, right? Wrong. Your dentures will never change (assuming you don't play hockey or plan on running over them any time soon), but your mouth will.
The gum ridges in our mouths can shrink with age, which causes dentures to become loose. Bone can also shrink, causing jaws not to line up properly. Ill fitting dentures can cause sore spots in your mouth and stomach problems, the result of not being able to chew food properly. A loose denture could also cause changes in your facial features, not to mention become a nuisance the next time you go sky diving.
If your dentures are loose, painful or just don't feel right, call our office for a consultation. They may need to be adjusted, relined or completely remade (if they are completely worn out). You may have noticed some products that claim to fix unsavvy dentures. When we make repairs in our own on site dental lab right here in the heart of New York, we use quality materials that are only available to dentists. Over the counter product often contain harsh chemicals that only make matters worse.
If you're not satisfied with the look or feel of your dentures, please don't hesitate to call our office at 212-689-0024 conveniently located in Midtown Manhattan for an evaluation! It's important to keep future dental appointments as well so that your fit can be continually evaluated and you can be screened for oral cancer and gum disease. Your health and comfort are important to us; we ensure you we will give you a reason to smile!
