I got dentures about three years ago. Since then I have changed jobs and did not get dental insurance since I have top and bottom dentures. I never really gave much thought about having to have the repaired. Now my top dentures should be relined and my bottom dentures do not seem to fit like they use too. Getting them repaired without dental insurance is costly to me. If I get dental insurance now will they pay for them to be relined and repaired. Or can I just get new dentures?

Need of dental work
Due to medical issues I have always had bad teeth. Over three years ago I was able to get bottom dentures since I had good insurance though my job. I no longer have that job since they closed down. Now I have no insurance and my top teeth are in very bad shape. They hurt and I know I need dentures for the top teeth. Also my bottoms dentures need to be adjusted.

Getting top and bottom dentures
The dentist says they will look just like regular teeth and that people will not be able to teeth unless I say something. I and very happy about that because my teeth well have been bad for many years. I was just wondering how do you keep them clean do you brush them like normal teeth? Or do you on use denture cleaner in a cup and keep them in that over night?

I just got top dentures about three weeks ago, and now they do not seem to me as if they fit right. Is this normal ? Will I have to have them ship out to be adjusted or can they fix it at the dentist office? I am hoping they can just fix them at the dental office because I would hate to have to go without teeth for who know how long. Anyone have this problem. This is all new to me.

Dentures are made of acrylic and cannot be reheated in any way to try to reshape them. If you try to do that you will ruin them. A dentist will be able to correct your dentures so please do not boil or cook them.

Will my dentist and I be able to choose the specialist?
Some plans limit referrals to specialists. Your dentist may be required to refer you to a limited selection of specialists who have contracted with the plan’s third party. You also may be required to get permission from the plan administrator before being referred to a specialist. If you choose a plan with these limitations, make sure qualified specialists are available in your area. Look for a plan with a broad selection of different types of specialists.
