Denture Repair
ABOUT
A broken denture, much like broken eyeglasses, is an emergency that needs immediate attention. Yet, many patients try to manage chipped, cracked, or broken dentures far longer than necessary. Some would rather endure discomfort than risk sending their dentures away for an extended repair, while others worry about the cost.
Good news: Dentures Direct now offers same-day emergency denture repairs in Toronto, usually within about an hour. Since all work is done right in our on-site lab, we don’t need to outsource labor or parts, which helps keep costs down for you.
Same-Day Denture Repair Services
Bone and/or tooth loss
Solution: Relining of the denture. An impression of your mouth is made with the denture in place, and new acrylic material is added to correct the fit.
Broken, weakened or old denture base
Solution: Rebase. The existing teeth remain in the same place, but the entire acrylic base material is replaced.
Cracked denture
Solution: The cracks are treated so new acrylic can be added; the repaired base is cured, finished and polished
Tooth has fallen off and is lost
Solution: A new tooth is matched and ground, the replacement area is ground, and the tooth is mechanically attached. Acrylic is added to replace the gum.
Tooth needs to be added on a partial
Solution: A tooth is chosen to match the remaining teeth, ground, and a mechanical retention added. Pink acrylic is added to replace the gum.
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is broken denture an emergency?
How do you temporarily fix dentures?
How can I fix my dentures at home if they break in half?
If your dentures break in half, you may try attaching them together with a bonding material found in a denture repair kit. Note that you should never use other adhesives or glue products, as they are not designed for dental appliances and contain toxic substances.
Even if you manage to attach the broken pieces together, keep in mind that the fixed denture won’t last: you should still visit Dentures Direct to get your denture permanently repaired as soon as possible.
