Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Can you repair my dentures the same day they break?
For some denture repairs, Shumway Family Dentistry can provide same-day service depending on the type and extent of damage. Simple repairs like reattaching a broken tooth or fixing minor cracks can often be completed quickly. More complex repairs may require sending your dentures to a specialized lab, which typically takes a few days. Dr. Shumway has nearly a decade of clinical experience evaluating denture damage and determining the best repair approach. His patient-first philosophy means providing honest assessments about timing so Billings patients can plan accordingly. Through ongoing continuing education and AGD membership, Dr. Shumway stays current on denture repair techniques that restore function and comfort efficiently.
2. Should I try to fix my dentures at home or bring them to you?
You should bring your broken dentures directly to Shumway Family Dentistry rather than attempting home repairs. Store-bought repair kits and household adhesives often cause additional damage that makes professional repair more difficult or even impossible, ultimately costing more. With nearly a decade of clinical experience, Dr. Shumway can properly assess the damage and determine whether repair or replacement is needed. His patient-first approach ensures Billings patients receive appropriate treatment recommendations. Professional repair using proper materials and techniques restores your dentures safely and effectively, while DIY attempts frequently result in poor fit, discomfort, and further breakage.
