Denture Problems... North Pointe Dental Associates Can Help in the Tampa, Carrollwood Village and Lake Magdalene areas
 

Many denture wearers in the Tampa 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 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.

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.

If you have questions about your dentures, please call North Pointe Dental Associates at (813) 961-1727 for answers.

*Minimal sedation, also known as anxiolysis, is the use of oral and inhalation medications to relieve anxiety before and during
 dental procedures that minimally reduce consciousness in an effort to reduce fear and anxiety, while still maintaining
 normal breathing and the ability to respond appropriately to physical and verbal stimulation.
