Do your dentures have a chip, crack, or a loose tooth? Don’t panic! To begin with At Christina Brinda DDS in North Canton, we help patients from Canton, Massillon, and surrounding areas restore their dentures with care and professionalism. The short answer is yes, broken dentures can be fixed, but ensure you have a professional like Dr. Christina Brinda, handle the repair. Never try to fix them yourself with store-bought kits or super glue.
Wit this blog we hope to help you understand the most important information regarding your denture repairs, from simple fixes to more complex solutions.
Common Denture Repairs We Can Do for You
Anything from dropping your denture to regular wear and tear can break it. Fortunately, your local dentist can repair most common issues, quickly and effectively. In addition, at Christina Brinda DDS, we can fix:
- Cracks and Chips: We use new acrylic to bond minor cracks and chips, restoring the denture’s shape and strength.
- Loose or Broken Teeth: If a tooth falls out or chips, we reattach it or replace it with a new one that matches perfectly.
- Loose Clasps: For partial dentures, we can re-adjust a loose metal clasp to restore a snug, comfortable fit for you.
Many of these repairs can be done in our local North Canton office, and we can often offer same-day service for urgent situations.
The Importance of a Reline
Sometimes, a denture that feels loose isn’t broken, it’s just a poor fit. Over time, your jawbone naturally changes shape, and this can cause your once perfect dentures to become loose and uncomfortable. This can also lead to pain and potential damage to the dentures themselves.
We perform a simple denture reline by adding new acrylic material to the base of your existing denture to refit it to the current contours of your gums. This gives you the comfortable and stable fit you need to eat and speak with confidence. A reline is a great option for a denture that is in good condition but just doesn’t fit right anymore.
Why You Should Call Your Dentist Immediately
A broken denture is more than just an inconvenience; it can be a health risk. An ill-fitting or damaged denture can cause for example:
Oral Irritation
Sharp edges from a chip or crack may cut your gums and create painful sores.
Infection
Open sores can easily become infected with bacteria.
Speech and Chewing Issues
As a result a broken denture can interfere with your ability to speak clearly and chew your food properly, which can affect your nutrition.
If your dentures are broken or if they just don’t feel right, don’t wait. Fixing them yourself often leads to permanent damage, making them impossible to repair.
At Christina Brinda DDS, we are committed to providing you with fast, reliable denture repair and reline services.

General Dentist Brinda is the best dentist I ever been to . If you’ve been holding off going to the dentist, whether for just cleaning or getting wisdom teeth out , go here . The staff is so welcoming and friendly and Dr. Brinda is so knowledgeable and walked me through every procedure from start to finish and all the expectations. She is a perfectionist that wants you to look your best and goes out of her way to do just that . I went in for a whitening treatment and cleaning and it was the best experience that I had at a dental practice! I definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to feel comfortable,well cared for and informed, while receiving best treatment for their smile.

Dr. Brinda is hands down the best dentist I’ve ever been to! My wife and I live in Michigan and we make the drive every year to go see her because she’s that good! Whether it’s going in for cleaning/whitening or taking care of a cavity, I always have a great experience going here. I’ve never really enjoyed going to the doctor for anything, but I can honestly say I enjoy coming here for my yearly checkups. Dr. Brinda is very knowledgeable and extremely professional, and she goes out of her way to make people feel welcome and cared for. Highly highly recommend!

Dr. Brinda and her amazing office team are lovely; down to earth and outstandingly competent. Their main focus, I have no doubt from all of my visits, is their patient’s oral health. This team is professional and efficient, but also what we all want in a medical team of any sort, very knowledgeable. I truly appreciate all of the care and concern this office has offered me. This is truly a top notch team and one you can thoroughly entrust with your dental health. Thank you to you all.

I personally was shadowing Dr. Brinda's office for my Dental Hygienist Program, and it was an amazing experience! Dr.Brinda and her wonderful team are constantly working to make sure things are sterilized, wiped down, and organized for your visit! There was nobody sitting around, but everyone was helping other people out! Staff at Dr. Brinda's office was respectful, sweet and supportive! Dr. Brinda personally took time with patients, and treated them like a person, not just a patient. She asked recurring patients about an update on their personal lives from the patients last visit, and it was amazing to see the patients smile when she remembered. Overall, from someone who saw behind the scenes of this office, I would gladly come there to visit just to see the amazing work they do. I highly recommend Dr. Brinda's Office!

I normally don’t make recommendations or write testimonials for services rendered. I expect and demand the highest patient care for my hard earned buck, period. I have been a patient for several years. Her team of professionals are exceeding my expectations regarding knowledge, kindness, skills, patient care, and my well being. Beginning from the initial phone call to schedule an appointment, through all of the facets of dental care provided, and processing the insurance payment, each employee earns a five star on my every visit.

The most friendly staff I have ever seen in a dentist office! Dr Brinda was super knowledgeable about some underlying health conditions and my pregnancy and was super through and cautious! Say bye bye to any anxiety from dentistry work at this office it’s feels welcoming and homey and very clean.
