What Are Dentures?
Dentures are an oral appliance device to replace missing teeth. It is fit to a patient’s mouth, easily removable for everyday use, and can help people speak or chew their food properly. Not only can they improve oral health, but they can also help people with lost teeth regain their confident smiles.
Are Dentures Right for You?
Dentures are an option for almost everyone who has damaged or missing teeth. All you need is for your gums and the surrounding tissue to be healthy. Even if some of your teeth are still in good shape, dentures may be an option because you can get partial dentures if you only need to replace some teeth.
What’s the Purpose of Dentures?
The main purpose for many people with dentures is to replace missing teeth so that they can eat and speak properly. Missing teeth can
regain a full smile after losing a few teeth. Perhaps you’ve have damaged teeth that feel out, or an infection that caused you to lose your teeth. Dentures can fill that gap and help people have a healthy-looking smile, and even help people eat and speak without the disruption of missing teeth.
Denture Options
Types of Dentures We Offer
There are four main types of dentures: Immediate, Over, Partial, and Complete.
Immediate Dentures
Immediate dentures are placed in a patient’s mouth immediately after the removal of natural teeth. They are a temporary device, later to be replaced with complete dentures.
Over Dentures
Over dentures are made to sit on the gums and be removed nightly before bed. They are created for more stability in the mouth throughout the day and to be used long-term.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are affixed to any remaining natural teeth. They work to fill any needed gaps in the teeth to help dental patients have a complete smile.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are the premium, full-coverage devices that cover an entire arch of your teeth. They’re removable and replace all of the teeth while still remaining extremely durable for long-lasting use.
You’ll Forget They’re Dentures
Durable Dentures That Act as Natural Teeth
A changing smile shouldn’t change your entire lifestyle. We design dentures to be durable, allowing you to continue enjoying all the foods you are used to. Dentures are also able to preserve oral bone structure and prevent facial muscles from sagging which can occur due to loss of teeth.
How Dentures Are Placed
The process of getting dentures can take multiple visits. Here are the steps involved in creating and receiving your dentures.
STEP 1:
Consultation
The first step is to schedule an appointment for a consultation. In this appointment, we’ll discuss your options. Dentures can be great to replace missing teeth, but it isn’t the only option. We want to make sure that you’re getting the best possible treatment and discussing your goals and choices will help us do that.
STEP 2:
Preparation
During the first visit, the teeth are prepared for bite registration for your custom dentures.
STEP 3:
Step 3: Impressions
We’ll take impressions of your teeth and send those off to a lab that will create a customized denture set designed to fit your unique needs.
STEP 4:
Fitting the Dentures
During the second visit, the dentures are placed and secured. Several follow-up visits are scheduled so that the fit and function can be checked periodically.
STEP 5:
Maintaining Your Dentures
This step is up to you. You’ll need to brush and floss daily any remaining natural teeth you have in order to keep them in good condition.
STEP 6:
Replacing Your Dentures
Eventually, you may need denture replacement. We’ll start again with impressions to create new dentures for you.
