Dentures
Regain your smile and improve your quality of life with comfortable, well-fitting dentures that provide a natural-looking and functional solution for missing teeth.
Dentures are a removable solution for missing teeth that offers some functionality and cosmetic improvement when you’ve lost your teeth.
Types of Dentures
Conventional complete dentures
Made for our patients who have lost all of their teeth on one or both jaws. Traditional dentures are removable and use the soft tissue of your oral cavity for support. They can oftentimes necessitate dental adhesive for added retention. These are the types of dentures people have been using for centuries. They are affordable and functional but since they rely solely on the soft tissue for retention, it can be a process for patients to learn how to effectively use them.
Partial dentures
Also removable and are used when you are missing one or more teeth. They are considered an alternative to dental bridges. They are supported by healthy teeth and soft tissue on either side of the gap.
Benefits of Dentures
Partial and conventional dentures come with many benefits. From restoring your smile and filling gaps in your mouth to improving biting and chewing functions. These products can be absolutely life changing for individuals that are struggling to get by with either severely damaged teeth or no teeth at all. These dental devices also help to avoid some of the adverse side effects of tooth loss.
Sagging of facial muscles is common in patients missing all of their teeth. This is due to the teeth not filling out the cheeks as well as the deterioration of the jaw bone that can occur. While dentures can fill in some of your facial structure when they are in—they do not help the integrity of your jawbone.
