What should I do if a piece of my denture falls off

Dental problems are a common phenomenon in our lives. In particular, tooth loss will seriously affect daily diet and image. Dentures are an effective way to repair teeth, but if dentures are not properly maintained, they are prone to falling off. Many people have also encountered the phenomenon of dentures falling off. Let's learn about what to do if a piece of denture falls off.

What should I do if a piece of my denture falls off?

Method 1: If a small amount of porcelain fragments fall off the edge of the back teeth and the edge is relatively smooth, it does not affect the appearance and does not need to be treated;

Method 2: If the tongue is pierced or the edge is sharp, go for plastic surgery and milling and polishing in time;

Method 3: If the entire tooth surface or a large piece of the front tooth falls off, remove the porcelain crown and make a new porcelain crown restoration;

Method 4: If the porcelain powder falls off in pieces, you can only discard it and repair it separately. However, imported light-cured porcelain dental restoration materials are prone to falling off. We found that removing all the porcelain powder from the broken porcelain crown and then making a single porcelain tooth for repair is more solid and stable with natural and beautiful color.

Method 5: A more serious situation is that the porcelain teeth become loose and fall off as a whole. Users tend not to take it seriously, thinking that as long as they are well preserved, they can always be used again. They do not know that after more than two weeks, the opposing teeth will elongate, and the abutment teeth that fell off the porcelain will also elongate and shift, resulting in scrapping. They have to grind the teeth again, take molds and try them on, which is not only painful but also costly. In addition, because the abutment teeth become shorter and shorter, the retention of the porcelain teeth is affected. Therefore, be sure to clean the fallen porcelain teeth and put them back in place in the mouth in time, and then go for plastic surgery or plastic surgery as soon as possible without any delay.

The above is an introduction to what to do if a piece of denture falls off. After understanding it, we know that there are many ways to deal with a fallen tooth. We must go to the hospital for treatment based on the actual situation, and we must pay attention to ensuring good oral hygiene in daily life.
