by ALEX TRENTON DENTURIST Creating confident smiles since 1982. Alexander Trenton, DD, F.C.A.D. (A) Denturist Georgetown Denture Clinic, 18 Church Street, Georgetown, Ontario (905) 877-2359 (Across from the Library and Cultural Centre) Tooth Chatter CHANGES WITH PROLONGED DENTURE WEAR The denture is the most abused prosthetic aid to our wellbeing, They are mixed up with old sets, worn ill matched, broken and stuck together incorrectly, worn in two or three pieces, flushed down toilets, lost at sea, thrown at immovable objects, eaten by dogs, stamped on, and used for whittling by retirees! The emergence on the scene in the recent years of the Denturist has meant a closer and a more individual concept of patient - professional relationship. With this individual attention, fewer dentures will finish up in the bottom drawer! Your mouth is constantly changing as you grow older, whereas your dentures are hard and unyielding. Visits to your Denture Clinic at least once every year are recommended. PROPER FIT At the first sign of ill-fitting dentures you should have them checked. If your denture is loose and falls down it could be a number of things. Your gums may have shrunk or, your bite may have changed. A denture that doesnt touch or come together correctly when biting may become dislodged. (Filling your dentures with gels or quick set plastic to secure them is a temporary solution that could give you a permanent problem). In addition, dentures are an artificial appliance and therefore have limited life expectancy. However, with todays materials, counselling and proper denture care, a patient should experience years of denture health and comfort.The musculature of the mouth is very intense and tightly knit in combination with an extremely demanding daily routine of chewing and speaking from morning until evening combine to wear down even the most durable of denture materials. As long as you are aware of the changes that take place and do something about what is happening you can ensure that your mouth will remain in a healthy state. If your dentures are not fitting or not looking as good as they should, give our office a call for a no-charge consultation. www.georgetowndentureclinic.com CONCEPT FORD G E O R G E T O W N 361 Guelph St. (Hwy. 7) www.conceptford.com 905.873.1626 Independent & Free Press, Wednesday, April 9, 2008 15 Attention all fibre enthusiasts!
