Can you use denture cream to hold a tooth in place?
Denture cream is not designed for holding a natural tooth in place and should not be used for that purpose. It is formulated for securing dentures to the gums and may not provide the necessary support or safety for a tooth. If you have a loose tooth, it's important to consult a dental professional for appropriate treatment. Using denture cream on a tooth could lead to complications or further dental issues.

What is denture cloning?
Denture clone is a duplicate denture or spare denture. Some dentures are still made with porcelain denture teeth, and with this known fact, a clone denture cannot be made with porcelain denture teeth. Cloned dentures are made for temporary uses such as an emergency backup denture. If you are searching for new dentures, a cloned denture should not be of choice because it is a copy of your original denture. That is if the denture teeth are worn down, so will the cloned denture teeth be worn down. If some of your denture teeth are chipped, so will the cloned denture teeth be chipped as nothing on the denture will change, meaning its structure. If your dentures are loose, then your best solution may be to take your denture to a dentist where it can be relined so that it fits snug. If you are still in the market after you get your denture lined again, your temporary backup denture solution would then be a cloned denture or duplicate denture. 1. It will be an EXACT duplicate of your existing denture made with new, high impact, break- resistant, denture base material (pink gum material). 2. The teeth will be EXACTLY the same shape and size of your original denture. The shade of the teeth can be made lighter or darker upon request. 3. The best candidates are new dentures immediately after they have been fitted and all adjustments have been made because there is no tooth wear, but any denture, new or old, can be cloned. 4. Denture cloning is only suggested for well-fitting, comfortable dentures - the only reason being the duplicate is an exact copy of the original denture. 5. Any necessary repairs to your existing denture, including breakage, missing teeth, holes, thin areas, can and must be repaired before the clone mold is made. 6. Clones are an excellent alternative for elderly, home-bound patients who may have difficulty getting to a dental office. 7. A clone denture eliminates the "breaking in" phase of a new denture. 8. An ideal time for a clone to be made is when your denture needs repair due to a loose tooth or fracture. Your denture will need to go to a dental lab for repair. A clone mold can easily be made at this time.
What is the cost of having one tooth added to denture?
The cost of adding one tooth to a denture typically ranges from $100 to $300, depending on factors such as the type of denture, the complexity of the procedure, and the dentist's fees. Additional costs may arise from necessary adjustments or fittings. It's best to consult with a dentist for an accurate estimate tailored to individual circumstances.
How do you make denture adjustments?
To correctly replace a missing tooth in a denture or reattach an existing tooth that has popped out you first remove a small amount of the pink denture base that forms the socket, usually by grinding with a carbide bur. Next you size the replacement denture tooth to the correct contours or freshen the existing tooth while leaving a small amount of space between the tooth and the ground out socket. Then you mix new acrylic and place it in the space behind the tooth you have secured in place by sticky wax or will place by hand in the uncured acrylic. Most acrylics need to cure submerged in 120-130 degree hot water inside a pressure curing unit at 2-3 bars of pressure for 30 minutes. Then you grind to smoothness, reform the gingiva simulation and remove any acrylic that has flashed or is out of contour before you polish with pumice before high shining. Next, you disinfect the finished restoration. Using any material to resecure the tooth without providing space for that material will have the tooth out of place or contour since the material resecuring or gluing the tooth to the existing denture base will take up space and not let the tooth seat fully where it was. Acrylics and epoxies are fairly permanent, but most glues let go after a while in saliva. If you use any substance yourself you almost always make it impossible to go back and do it correctly without much more labor and expenses. Hope this helps. My advise is to go to a professional before you make it worse. Denturist in San Francisco

Will your gum grow back after you have a tooth extracted and can you replace that empty space with a denture?
The gums will close up and there won't be a hole. And the hole can be "filled" up with an implant, a bridge, a partial denture or something called a flipper. It depends on which tooth is missing a other factors. Talk to your dentist to see what the best option for you is.
