Denture Problems...Dr. Harasin Can Help
 

Many denture wearers in the Saginaw area breathe a sigh of relief when they get their first pair of dentures because they think their dental problems are over.  What they soon realize, however, is that they have just traded some old problems for new ones.

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.

Dr. Harasin believes that for most patients, their 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.

Placement of dental implants not only can stabilize or hold dentures in place but the implants also preserve the bone and stop it from shrinking away.

If you have questions about your dentures, please call John M Harasin DDS at (989) 792-2461 for answers.
