With a denture, we make sure that you can smile broadly again. A denture is a prosthesis that replaces the natural teeth and molars when they are missing or have to be extracted. We make the denture completely to measure, so that it fits the shape of your jaw well. When you have a denture fitted by the dentists at Maliekwartier Tandartsen, you always benefit from the following advantages:<\/p>\n
Do you already have a denture that is due for replacement? At Maliekwartier Tandartsen we can of course help you with this. Schedule a consultation by calling 030 760 1267<\/a>; together we then look at the options for replacement.<\/p>\n Having a denture fitted is not done in a day. The treatment process consists of a number of phases. We are happy to explain these phases to you.<\/p>\n The treatment process starts with a preliminary examination. This means that we examine the current state of your teeth and draw up a tailor-made treatment plan.<\/p>\n After we complete the preliminary examination, we take an impression of your teeth. The dental laboratory then makes a plaster model and an impression tray from it. With these, they make the final denture.<\/p>\n As a final step, we place the final prosthesis. It is normal for the denture not to feel completely comfortable in the first few days. Your body has to get used to the prosthesis.<\/p>\n It is possible that your gums bleed a little. This is normal and nothing to worry about. After a few hours, this bleeding stops. We advise you not to rinse your mouth on the first day, however difficult that may be. Rinsing may reopen the small wounds, which slows down healing. If the bleeding does not stop after a few hours, please contact us on 030 760 1267<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Dutch Healthcare Authority reviews the costs of dental treatments each year. This means that the costs differ from year to year. View the current costs on our rates page<\/a>. You can find the costs under the letter P.<\/p>\n The reimbursements for a denture differ per insurance and insurance company. We therefore recommend contacting your insurer for questions about the reimbursement of the treatment.<\/p>\n We have already answered a number of the frequently asked questions for you below. It is of course possible that you have a different question. In that case, please contact us by phone.<\/p>\n How quickly you get used to the denture differs from person to person. In the beginning, the denture will feel uncomfortable, but after a few days to weeks the sensitivity will subside on its own. So you do get used to the denture.<\/p>\n Yes, with a denture you can eat as you did with your natural teeth. In the first few days, eating with your new denture will still feel a little unnatural. We therefore always advise starting with soft food, such as pur\u00e9e or soup. With sticky food, the denture may come out of place.<\/p>\n The denture should actually be cleaned after every meal with a separate toothbrush and washing-up liquid. This is because food remnants easily stay behind, which can cause gum inflammation. Do not put the denture in the dishwasher.<\/p>\n In the first week, we recommend wearing the denture at night as well. This way you get used to wearing your new prosthesis more quickly. After that first week, you should take your denture out at night and store it dry.<\/p>\n After about six weeks, you will notice that the denture becomes a little looser. This is because the small wounds have healed and the swelling has subsided. Do you notice that your denture is too loose? Then always contact us. We will adjust your denture by applying a new layer or lining.<\/p>\n Do you have questions about having a denture fitted?
