Denture repair in Gwynn Oak, MD

Yes. When repaired by a dental professional, dentures are often as strong as the original, and with proper reinforcement, they can be even stronger. The final strength depends on the extent of the damage, the age of the denture base, and bite alignment. We use clinical‑grade materials, heat/pressure curing, and metal or fiber reinforcement when needed, then check fit and bite to ensure long‑lasting durability and comfort. If your denture has multiple fractures or significant wear, a rebase or replacement may be the better long‑term solution. Need it fast? We offer same-day denture repair and emergency denture repair for most cases. Contact us to schedule, and we’ll complete your broken denture repair quickly without compromising strength or fit.

Dentures usually fall out because their fit has changed. Common causes include natural bone and gum shrinkage, worn or warped denture bases, broken clasps, changes in bite, dry mouth, weight changes, or overreliance on adhesive. These issues often lead to loose dentures. Schedule an in-person evaluation at our dental laboratory. An experienced technician will assess stability, pressure points, and your bite, then recommend the right solution, such as denture relining, rebasing, bite adjustment, or denture repair, often completed quickly. Avoid DIY fixes and superglue, which can damage the denture and your tissues. If you're considering dentures, check out Maryland Department of Health.

Denture repair restores a denture that’s cracked, broken, or missing a tooth; the goal is to fix the appliance so it looks and functions properly again. Denture relining reshapes the inner surface to improve fit and comfort when your gums and jawbone change over time due to natural resorption. In short: visible damage needs repair; a loose, rubbing, or unstable denture needs a reline. Many prosthodontists and denture clinics offer same-day or emergency denture repair.

Yes, well-made dentures can look just like natural teeth. Today’s natural-looking dentures are custom designed by an experienced dentist or prosthodontist to match your facial features, gum line, and bite; precise shade matching, lifelike tooth shapes, and a secure fit (often using digital impressions) create a convincing, comfortable result. High-quality materials and expert adjustments are essential, so choose a provider skilled in cosmetic dentistry for the most realistic outcome.

You may need new dentures if they feel loose or uncomfortable, cause sore spots, or make speaking and chewing difficult: classic signs of ill-fitting dentures. Visible damage like stains, cracks, chips, or warped acrylic is another red flag. Because your gums and jaw change over time, even well-made dentures can stop fitting. Schedule an exam with a dentist or prosthodontist to determine whether a reline or full denture replacement is best and to protect your oral health.
