If you’re considering dentures, you’ve probably heard a few things that will make you you hesitate. At Christina Brinda DDS in North Canton, we’re here to set the record straight and clarify certain denture misconceptions you may have. As a dentist who specializes in dentures, Dr. Christina Brinda wants to address some of the most common myths about dentures.
Myth 1: You’re Too Young for Dentures
The idea that dentures are only for the elderly is simply not true. Tooth loss can happen at any age due to accidents, disease or genetic factors. If you’re a young adult with missing teeth, dentures are an excellent option to restore your confidence, prevent oral health problems, and improve your ability to eat and speak.
Myth #2: Dentures Look Fake
This is one of the biggest fears we hear from patients. Fortunately, modern dentures are nothing like the false teeth of the past. Using advanced technology and high quality materials, we can custom design dentures that look incredibly natural. We can match them to your facial features and even give you a new smile that looks even better than your natural one.
Myth #3: Dentures Will Fall Out or Slip
A properly fitted denture should not slip or move. The initial adjustment period might involve some minor shifting, but once your dentures are relined to fit the unique contours of your mouth, they should be stable. If you find your dentures are constantly slipping or feel loose, it’s a sign that they need a professional adjustment or a reline, not that all dentures are unstable.
Myth #4: Eating is Impossible with Dentures
While there is an initial learning curve, you can absolutely enjoy all your favorite foods with dentures. Your brain, tongue and jaw need time to adapt to a new way of chewing. We recommend starting with soft foods and gradually introducing more challenging ones. Once you get used to them, you can eat with confidence again.

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!

My oldest started at 1 1/2 - 2 years old and now is 16. All are very happy with Dr. Brinda as well as the staff. Very caring and always explain what is going on when performing dental work beyond basic cleanings. Great attention to detail.

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.
