Dentures are removable prosthetic teeth that are usually recommended to patients who have lost a large number of teeth. A denture comprises an acrylic base and ceramic tooth-like structures that are held by it. Together, they mimic the appearance of gums and teeth as a whole. There are mainly two types of dentures that can be categorized based on the number of teeth they restore; complete dentures and partial dentures.

What are complete and partial dentures?

Complete dentures restore every single tooth in your mouth. They can further be categorized into conventional and immediate dentures. Conventional dentures are the ones that dentists provide after they remove all your teeth, and the wounds heal. On the other hand, immediate dentures are provided right after the teeth are extracted. You can start using the dentures, and the wounds will heal under them.

Partial dentures, as the name suggests, are used by patients who still have a significant number of teeth remaining. The denture can be fabricated in such a way that the prosthetic teeth sit adjacent to the natural ones, thereby giving you a perfect smile. A metal framework is usually used with partial dentures as it helps to hold the teeth in place.

What is the procedure involved?

When you visit our practice for a consultation, the dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth and determine your candidacy for dentures. If you wish to have your teeth extracted before getting dentures, the dentist will have them removed. A highly precise mold of your jaw will be created. The denture will be fabricated in a dental laboratory. This may take a few days, after which we will notify you. The dentist will place the dentures in your mouth and check for fit and comfort. If any changes need to be made, we will tend to them and ensure they fit you perfectly.

Implant Overdenture

Implant overdentures are an innovative method of permanent tooth replacement that offers several unique benefits. Our dentists work with a team of specialists that help to ensure denture stability by placing implants underneath the denture. The denture is then custom fit to snap into the implants to provide stability while talking and eating. You simply snap the dentures out to clean them at the end of the day! 

All-on-4 Fixed Denture

All-on-4 Fixed Dentures are the cutting-edge denture treatment that most closely replicates your natural teeth. Both the implants and dentures are customized to fit perfectly in the mouth for a secure, comfortable fit, and beautiful smile. Unlike traditional dentures, you don't have to worry about them falling out while eating or taking them out over and over to keep them clean and tidy; instead, you can take care of your All-on-4 denture just like you do for your natural teeth! Keep in mind to brush your teeth twice daily and floss at least once daily.
