BROKEN DENTURE
_____________________________________________________

Broken dentures are often seen in the dental office on an emergency basis. In most cases dentures that are broken in one place are easily repaired by a dentist. However, multiple fractures are sometimes difficult if not impossible to repair.

One of the most common mistakes made by people with broken dentures is to use glue to repair the denture. While the bond formed between cyanoacrylate (the substance used in many of the quick dry glues) and methyl methacrylate (the plastic used in most dentures) is strong, many people do not align the the pieces perfectly. This often leads to misfitted dentures. Indeed, if a denture is broken completely in many places it may be impossible to repair. Broken dentures should always be taken to a dental professional before any attempt at home repair is made.
