Dentures are a vital part of daily life for many people, so when they break, it can be stressful and inconvenient. At our dental laboratory, we specialise in fast, professional denture repairs—so you can get back to smiling with confidence.
Why Do Dentures Break?
Even well-made dentures can break for a variety of reasons:
- Accidental Damage: Dropping dentures on a hard surface is one of the most common causes of cracks or breaks.
- Everyday Wear and Tear: Over time, the materials naturally weaken from constant use, especially if the denture is several years old.
- Poor Fit: If dentures no longer fit snugly, they can flex during chewing, putting extra stress on the base and increasing the risk of breakage.
- Biting Hard Foods: Chewing hard items or using your dentures to open packaging (never recommended!) can lead to fractures.
- Drying Out: Dentures need moisture to stay in good condition. Letting them dry out can cause warping or brittleness.
