Dentures
A brief digest about this topic
Dentures are false teeth made to replace teeth you have lost. Dentures can be complete or partial. Complete dentures cover your entire upper or lower jaw. Partials replace one or a few teeth.
Advances in dentistry have made many improvements in dentures. They are more natural looking and comfortable than they used to be. But they still may feel strange at first. In the beginning, your dentist may want to see you often to make sure the dentures fit. Over time, your mouth will change and your dentures may need to be adjusted or replaced. Be sure to let your dentist handle these adjustments.
Speaking and eating may feel different with dentures. Be careful when wearing dentures because they may make it harder for you to feel hot foods and liquids. Also, you may not notice things like bones in your mouth.

Irena Vaksman, DDS
There's no rushing at Dr. Irena Vaksman's office. The San Francisco-based dentists make a point on scheduling relatively few patients each day so that she can spend more time with each person.
A graduate of the prestigious Advanced Education in General Residency program at New York University’s School of Dentistry, Dr. Vaksman has years of experience in both cosmetic and clinical practices. Currently a restorative dentistry instructor at University of the Pacific School of Dentistry, Dr. Vaksman is devoted to providing patients with the best possible care and state-of-the-art technology.
Dr. Vaksman says the most important thing she teaches patients is the value of good oral hygiene at home and regular dental visits. Whether patients are in her office for a check-up, teeth whitening, or Porcelain Veneers, healthy teeth and gums are a prerequisite for a beautiful smile.
“A beautiful smile means a healthy smile,” the dentist says. “Red and swollen gums are not only unappealing, but also can affect your general health and well being.”
Dr. Vaksman is a Bay Area local with a love of skiing and hiking. She returned to San Francisco after 10 years in New York and Las Vegas, and now lives with her husband and their sons Charlie and Jack.
