Is Denture Repair Right for You?

You may benefit from denture repair if you are experiencing:

  • A cracked or broken denture
  • A loose or detached denture tooth
  • Difficulty chewing because of damage
  • Sharp or uncomfortable areas
  • Changes in denture fit
  • Damage after accidentally dropping your denture
  • Wear that affects comfort or function

Not every damaged denture needs to be replaced. In many cases, timely repairs can restore your appliance and help you avoid unnecessary replacement costs.

Why Choose a Prosthodontist?

Specialized Expertise You Can Trust

Dentures are more than removable appliances—they're carefully designed prosthetic restorations that affect your ability to eat, speak, smile, and maintain proper oral function.

As a prosthodontist, Dr. Anna Mcilwain has completed three additional years of specialty training dedicated to restoring and replacing teeth. Combined with the convenience of an in-house removable laboratory, Wilmington Prosthodontics is uniquely equipped to evaluate denture problems and provide efficient, high-quality repairs whenever possible.

In-House Removable Laboratory

Faster Repairs. Better Communication. Greater Convenience.

While we understand the urgency of denture repairs, every repair begins with a careful evaluation to ensure the restoration is appropriate and durable. Some appliances can be repaired quickly, while others may require more comprehensive treatment to restore proper function and long-term reliability.

Unlike many dental offices that send dentures to an outside laboratory, Wilmington Prosthodontics features an in-house removable laboratory. This allows Dr. Mcilwain and her lab team to work together throughout the repair process, helping streamline communication and complete many repairs the same day or by the next business day.

Whether your denture has a crack, a broken tooth, or needs an adjustment, having an on-site laboratory means fewer delays and a more efficient experience whenever possible.

Benefits of Our In-House Lab

  • Same-day repairs available for many cases
  • Direct collaboration between Dr. Mcilwain and the lab technician
  • No shipping to an outside laboratory
  • Faster turnaround and fewer delays
  • Convenient repairs and adjustments in one location

Denture Repairs | Frequently Asked Questions

Can my denture really be repaired the same day?

Many denture repairs can be completed the same day or by the next business day thanks to our in-house removable laboratory. The exact turnaround time depends on the type and extent of the damage.

What types of denture damage can be repaired?

Many common issues - including cracks, fractures, broken denture teeth, and minor damage - may be repairable. Dr. Anna Mcilwain will evaluate your denture and recommend the most appropriate solution.

Should I try to repair my denture at home?

No. Household glues and do-it-yourself repair kits can permanently damage your denture and make professional repairs more difficult. If your denture is damaged, it's best to contact Wilmington Prosthodontics as soon as possible.

Will my repaired denture fit the same?

In many cases, yes. Our goal is to restore both the fit and function of your denture whenever possible. If the damage is related to changes in your mouth or the denture itself, Dr. Mcilwain may recommend additional adjustments or discuss replacement options.

What if my denture can't be repaired?

Some dentures may be too damaged or worn for a lasting repair. If that's the case, we'll explain your options and recommend the treatment that's best for your long-term comfort and oral health.

Do I need an appointment for a denture repair?

We encourage patients to contact our office before arriving so we can assess your situation and schedule your evaluation as quickly as possible.

How can I help prevent future denture damage?

Handle your dentures carefully, clean them regularly, avoid dropping them on hard surfaces, and attend routine dental visits so we can monitor their condition and fit.

How do I get started?

If your denture has been damaged, contact Wilmington Prosthodontics as soon as possible. We'll schedule an evaluation and determine whether your appliance can be repaired the same day or by the next business day.
