Restorative & Prosthodontics for Stonewall Residents

Gums and jaw keep changing after teeth are lost, so a once-comfortable denture can start to shift. An assessment sorts out what it needs, and you can ask how to plan the trip into Winnipeg.

An older denture, a changing mouth

The denture may be fine. The fit around it has moved on.

Loosening, food getting trapped and new sore areas are all signs that tissue changes, wear or damage may have affected how an appliance sits. Stonewall is outside the City of Winnipeg, and residents who want this looked at by us come in to our clinic on McPhillips Street.

There are three common outcomes. A pressure area or bite issue may need an adjustment, a reline can refit the surface resting on your tissues, and a worn or damaged denture might call for replacement. Which of these applies depends on what the assessment finds. It’s also a chance to review your gums and any natural teeth still in place.

Adjustment

Sore spots and high contacts are handled at the clinic, where the appliance can be evaluated in your mouth.

Reline

When the tissues beneath have changed, a reline may be considered to refit a denture that is otherwise sound.

Replacement

Wear, damage or a significant change in your mouth may make a new denture the more sensible route after assessment.

Coming in about your fit

Make the fit check as informative as possible.

Your dentist will want to see how the denture behaves and hear how it has changed. A few simple preparations can help with both.

Request your visit
  1. 01

    Wear it in as usual

    Unless you are told otherwise, arrive with the denture in place so that its fit, your bite and any sore spots can be seen.

  2. 02

    Keep a short diary

    For a few days, note the foods it struggles with, when it lifts or drops and where it rubs, then bring those notes along.

  3. 03

    Ask how long it may be away

    Find out whether any work would mean leaving the denture with the clinic, so you can plan your trip and your days around that.

Your questions, answered.

Helpful details about restorative & prosthodontics in Stonewall.

Ask our team
Can adhesive solve a loose denture?

Looseness usually has a reason behind it, such as tissue change, wear or a shifted bite. Have that assessed, and ask what you may use on your particular appliance in the meantime.

Is a reline different from getting a new denture?

Yes. A reline refits an existing appliance to tissues that have changed, whereas replacement means making a new one. An assessment shows which is appropriate.

How would I know a denture has worn out?

You might notice poor chewing, damage, a changed bite or fit problems that keep returning. These are good reasons to book a review, and the dentist can tell you whether wear is the cause.

Is my lower denture supposed to move more than my upper?

They often behave differently because of anatomy and the motion of the tongue and lips. A marked change from how yours used to feel is still worth mentioning.

Could a loose lower denture be held by implants?

That may be possible, depending on your bone, health and the design of the denture. Implant attachments involve surgery and healing time, so ask about the steps and alternatives.

How should a Stonewall resident request a denture review?

Mention how old the denture is and what has changed, either by calling (204) 338-3003 or through the form here. The office will then reach out to you.

Has your fit changed?

Ask whether your denture needs a refit.

Describe how the appliance has been behaving and what you would like to improve. We will be in touch to arrange an assessment.
