Perhaps it's time to consider a new denture. You may not realize it, but the ridges of bone in your mouth that support your denture recede, causing the upper portion to move up and back and the lower denture to settle down. As a result, your chin will move closer to your nose by as much as 1/16th of an inch per year. And your bite may change with your upper teeth moving behind the lowers.
Even if your present dentures are still in great shape, changes in your mouth can date them. Replacing your dentures can give them renewed function and provide you with a more youthful appearance.
Please call our office to schedule an appointment to evaluate your dentures.
Sincerely,
Andrew S. Jackson DDS and Staff (707) 552-4110
