Question:
I live in Canada and have suffered for 3 years with dentures. I am allergic to the dye, acrylic and have tried non allergenic materials.
My question is what is in the Northern Denture so I can be tested for that. I have no idea where to find a lab that makes them up here. I am near London Ontario. ...Visitor from Canada
Answer:
I have been making dentures for 20 years and have never heard of the Northern Denture. However, dental allergies are uncommon but can be troublesome. Allergies related to dentures include cadmium and monomer in the acrylic.
A yeast infection in the denture can cause red and sore gums. Your dentist can prescribe medication for this. Finally, dental implants can replace dentures with crowns and bridges made from porcelain and gold. These are some of the most biocompatible materials available.
