Does Insurance Cover Dentures?
It is likely that your insurance provider will cover at least some of the costs associated with obtaining dentures — if not all of it. However, every dental plan is different. When you reach out to Centerburg Dental Care to schedule a dentures consultation, we will contact your carrier to determine what, if any, cost you might be responsible for during the treatment.
Will it be Difficult to Adjust to Dentures?
There will be a period of adjustment for you to become accustomed to your new dentures. How long — and how difficult — that period might be depending on the type of dentures that you have, as well as your personal habits.
It’s important to remember that you can always contact us to discuss the fit and comfort of your dentures. If your dentures are too uncomfortable — or even if you just have a question — we’re here for you.
Is it Necessary to Use Dental Adhesives?
There are several different types of dental adhesives that some people use to secure their dentures in place, including pastes, powders, and strips.
Not everyone needs to use dental adhesives for a secure and comfortable fit for their dentures, but there are some benefits to consider when deciding what might work best for you. Adhesives can make the fit of your dentures more stable and secure, including when you are biting and speaking. If you have a dry mouth that makes it hard for your dentures to fit securely, adhesives can offer assistance.
Likewise, if you speak in public or in front of colleagues while on the job frequently enough to require superior stability, adhesives can give you the confidence to focus on the content and delivery of your presentation — rather than the possibility that your dentures might slip and slide during it.
If you are unsure of whether dental adhesives are right for you, ask us about it. Sometimes, your dentures might need to be adjusted so that they fit more naturally in your mouth — without the use of dental adhesives.
