Have you lost your dentures? Do you need a replacement? Enjoy this brief video clip of the most amazing lost denture story we have ever seen.
Grandma Looses Dentures Skydiving
I have only one suggestion for Grandma - overdentures. Overdentures are implant fixed dentures that will not fall out when falling out of an airplane. Nor will they fall out when biting an apple or any other regular activity.
For those of you like grandma who have lost your dentures, need a denture repair, replacement dentures, or want to learn about implant-fixed overdentures, West Somerville Dental is the place for you. West Somerville Dental has an onside denture repair lab. Our denture technician and denture dentists do same day denture repairs on Tuesday and Thursday of each week.

Don't wait. Give us a call today at (617) 625-0543.

I am not one to be easily impressed by dental vendors, but last Friday I was blown away by the new Snap-On-Smile product offered by DenMat through Arcari Dental Labs, now available at West Somerville Dental.
As an alternative to complete or partial dentures, and dental flippers, these flexible removable fixtures look and feel just like natural teeth and fit like a dental veneer or a mouthguard. Finally, a non-invasive removable prosthetic that you can eat with and wear comfortably.
This product is relatively new, so don't expect your dentist to know about it yet. Give them a few months. In addition, your dentist might prefer traditional denture solutions, which is OK. We are going to test out a few cases ourselves, but when our #1 lab showed up with the demo on Friday, I was suitable impressed.
This sounds too good to be true. Well, that may be. The lifespan of these products is estimated at 5-10 years, so at some point you will need to replace them. And for some who would like a non-invasive new smile, that is good news.
It is true that the dental implant with a dental implant crown is the number one method to replace a missing tooth. And in many cases, good orthodonture can move teeth and eliminate unnecessary or undesirable spaces or create spaces for implants. But for those on a budget, the snap-on-smile concept is a very great alternative, and in some cases, the preferred smile makeover solution.
If you are interested in a smile makeover, give your Somerville Dentist a call at (617) 625-0543 and schedule a complimentry consultation with one of our cosmetic dental professionals. Schedule online and get 5% off your next dental appointment.
