What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental prosthetics designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They are custom-made to fit comfortably and securely, restoring both the function and aesthetics of your smile. Dentures are available in two main types:
- Complete Dentures: Used when all teeth are missing in the upper or lower jaw. They are crafted to provide a natural-looking smile and improved chewing ability.
- Partial Dentures: Designed for patients who still have some natural teeth, partial dentures fill gaps and prevent shifting of the remaining teeth.
Benefits of Dentures
- Improved Appearance: Restores the fullness of your smile and supports facial muscles, preventing a sunken appearance.
- Enhanced Functionality: Allows you to chew and speak more effectively.
- Custom Fit: Designed for maximum comfort and a natural look.
- Affordable Solution: Provides a cost-effective option for replacing multiple missing teeth.
The Denture Process
The process begins with an evaluation of your oral health. Impressions of your gums and remaining teeth are taken to create a custom fit. Once your dentures are crafted, adjustments are made to ensure comfort and functionality. For added stability, we can discuss implant-supported denture options.
