My daughter had many conversations with me about dentures and the problems I would have. I thought it would be easier to have my loose teeth extracted and just get dentures. Almost every night since I got the dentures I have cried. They are a nightmare. I can’t eat with them. On almost every bite, the bottom denture lifts. I spend more time trying to settle it back in place than I do eating. Is this what I have to deal with the rest of my life? Thank you. Janet

Janet – It is not uncommon for people to have issues with the bottom denture. This can occur because if improperly fitted dentures or jawbone shrinkage.

If you have already had your dentures refit or relined, you can consider getting a second opinion. Another dentist who is skilled with dentures may be able to provide you with a better fit. He or she will also let you know if you are experiencing jawbone shrinkage. Jawbone shrinkage occurs when your teeth are missing, and it makes it difficult to keep a denture in place.

Dental implants are surgically implanted in your jawbone. They can be used to stabilize dentures, and they prevent further jawbone shrinkage. Although your dentures may need to be replaced over the years, dental implants will help you enjoy eating again and improve your experience with dentures.

My teeth were whitened with Zoom 3 weeks ago and they are still too white. I don’t like the way they look and it is too noticeable. I know it may sound strange but I am sick of people asking me if I got my teeth whitened. I don’t want to go back to the original color of my teeth before I got Zoom but I do want to reverse it about 3 shades. Is this something that can be done? The dentist who did the Zoom told me no. Thanks. Nani

Nani – Teeth bleaching is not reversible. The bleaching gel penetrates your teeth and dissolves the stain in them. The stains that contributed to the color of your teeth cannot be revived.

Sometimes patients think they want their teeth to have a certain level of brightness, but when it is achieved, they are uncomfortable with it. As time passes, your teeth will pick up stains from food and drink. Instead of doing periodic touch-ups at home with whitening gel, you can skip those treatments and the color of your teeth will darken.

When your teeth are the shade of white you want, you can start using whitening gel to maintain them.
