It doesn't feel very encouraging to visit your favorite local eatery and not be able to order whatever you like! Tooth loss impacts your daily life in many significant ways, and it can feel daunting and discouraging to think about restoring your smile.
The good news is that there are excellent solutions for tooth replacement, whether it's for a few or all of your teeth. Dentures will allow you to eat the foods you love and confidently smile again!
Today, we'll focus on dentures, the different types we offer, and how they benefit your smile.
Partial Dentures Fill in the Gaps
A partial denture is ideal for patients who have lost multiple teeth but still retain many of their healthy teeth.
The appliance is removable and has strategically placed artificial teeth attached to it that fill in the gaps and restore function and aesthetics to your smile.
Complete Dentures Replace an Entire Arch of Teeth
A full denture is designed to replace an entire lower or upper arch of teeth. Traditional dentures are acrylic and removable, thoughtfully designed to complement your facial structure and skin tone, and rely on suction to your jawbone to stay in place.
Traditional dentures can take some time to get used to when it comes to eating and chewing, but most patients appreciate immediately having their smile restored.
Implant-Retained Dentures
We can use two to six strategically placed dental implants to hold a denture securely in place. Our dentist will design your denture to snap into the implants, keeping it secure and from moving while talking or eating.
Implant dentures also protect your jawbone from the deterioration that occurs with tooth loss and denture wear, which means better longevity for your denture.
