Many patients are admitted into long-term care facilities with existing dentures and partials. In many instances, these oral appliances do not fit properly. Because of the related discomfort, dentures often spend more time stored away in containers than in their mouth. As a result, patients interact less with their friends and family, along with having to alter the foods they may eat.
Complete and Partial Denture Care
For patients in long-term care facilities, proper nutrition is critical. Without reliable teeth, patients cannot eat the combination of foods necessary to maintain strength and reduce the risk of disease. Lifetime offers a comprehensive array of removable prosthetics. We are happy to conduct soft tissue exams and clean dentures during routine visits.
In cases where natural teeth have to be removed or an existing denture does not fit properly, Lifetime is able to fabricate new full and partial dentures.
