Taking Care of Your Dentures
Wearing dentures, whether partial or full, is a popular tooth replacement option here in our Springfield dental practice. Dentures are ideal if you have lost your permanent teeth as a result of injury, gum disease, or severe dental cavities.
Apart from huge cosmetic improvements, dentures also make it easier for you chew and speak. In addition, wearing dentures also help avoid your face from sagging, making you look older than you really are. Despite the lack of teeth, it still pays to practice good oral hygiene habits when wearing dentures. Below is quick guide to taking care of them!
- Before brushing the rest of your mouth and teeth, rinse your dentures to remove food particles stuck in between.
- Use soft-bristled toothbrush and a non-abrasive cleaner when cleaning your dentures to reduce the chances of getting them scratched.
- When not wearing your dentures, soak them in a covered jar filled with water to avoid them from losing their shape.
- Don’t forget to thoroughly clean your mouth and teeth too particularly hard-to-reach areas such as your gums, your tongue, and the roof of your mouth.

A Reminder to Thoroughly Clean Your Teeth with Invisalign Aligners
Here at our Springfield Invisalign practice, we make it a point that plaque and cavities are absent once your braces come off, giving way to an absolutely awesome smile in the future!
We always remind our clients with Invisalign to carefully clean their teeth and braces to avoid the occurrence of plaque. When plaque accumulates in the gum, problems such as infection and bleeding may arise. In addition, teeth underneath the braces could be discolored complemented with chronic bad breath. You do not want to have such oral health status when your braces are removed, right?
Cleaning Your Invisalign Braces Is Very Easy!
One of the advantages of Invisalign is how cleaning your aligners is very easy. All you need to do is brush and rinse them in lukewarm water. You can also opt to use the Invisalign cleaning kit.

3 Ways Dr. Price Can Help You Achieve the Naturally Perfect Smile
Dr. Stephen A. Price is a Virginia Invisalign specialist who has helped countless individuals achieve the naturally perfect smile they’ve always wanted. This outcome is attributed to the advanced cosmetic dentistry techniques in Dr. Price’s practice, combined with his skills and artistic eye.
Here are 3 possible ways that our Virginia dental practice could help you achieve a dramatic difference in your career and social life through significant improvements in your smile!
1. Invisalign – This is an innovative straightening system without wires and brackets. Highly customized braces will be created and will be snugly fitted into your teeth. One of Invisalign’s cool features is that it’s virtually invisible!
2. Veneers – They are ideal for closing gaps in between teeth or improving the appearance of teeth that don’t respond to whitening. Veneers are also good alternative to crowns and provide a much more conservative approach in masking tooth imperfections.
3. Dentures – Having full dentures comes close to having your natural teeth back! You can choose to have either full or partial dentures.
