Dentures can be used for patients experiencing more advanced forms of tooth loss. This option may be helpful for patients who have lost teeth throughout their smile, or have an entire arch of missing teeth. The goal of this option is to recreate a natural look and improve functions like chewing, speaking, and smiling. You can have a partial or complete set made, and it will be custom-created to fit your smile comfortably.
Custom Dentures Fit Your Smile
The primary goal with dentures is to have a false set of teeth that look lifelike and securely fit your mouth. Many patients worry that this prosthesis will slide around or not fit comfortably. By taking digital impressions of your smile, we can create a precise-fitting new set of teeth. Your dentist can show you how to properly care for your gums and clean your dentures to maintain them.
Partial Vs. Complete Dentures
A partial set of dentures can be used to fill the gaps throughout your smile. Unlike a dental bridge, this option can address missing teeth in different areas. Spaces are left for your existing teeth, and the false teeth are created to blend in. A full set of dentures can replace either the entire upper or lower ridge of your smile. This may be suggested if several of your teeth have been lost or cannot be restored.
