The Right Age To Get Dentures

Tooth loss can happen to anyone. A doctor? A pilot? A businessman? A kid? No matter what your profession is or what age you are at, you can lose your pearly whites.

A study shows that the need is not dependent on your age, but on the condition of your teeth but it is fairly common among those over age 40. According to a 2009 survey by Fixodent, a denture adhesive, 19 percent of American women over age 40 wear dentures.

In 2005, a Guinness World Record for being the youngest person ever to wear a full set of dentures was taken by a 3-year-old Daniel Sanchez-Ruiz of the United Kingdom. Shocking, isn't it? But young Daniel had a condition called hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, which meant he had no teeth and will never have any at all.

That clearly proves that can happen at any age, but it doesn't have to mean living without an attractive smile.
