Dentures (Full and Partial)

Dentures

We understand that losing teeth can significantly impact your daily life, affecting your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence. Our dentures service is designed to restore not only the functionality and aesthetics of your teeth but also your quality of life.

Dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They are made from a combination of metal and acrylic, which allows them to be strong yet lightweight. In addition, they can help fill out the appearance of your face and profile, which can be affected by the loss of teeth. There are two main types: full and partial. Full dentures are used when all natural teeth are missing, while partials are used when some natural teeth remain.

Benefits of Dentures

  • Improved Oral Functionality: They help with chewing and speaking more clearly, which can be compromised when you lose teeth.
  • Aesthetic Improvement: They restore the appearance of your smile and help maintain the shape of your face, preventing the facial muscles from sagging.
  • Customizable: They are custom-made in a dental lab from impressions taken of your mouth, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.
  • Cost-Effective: Compared to other dental restoration methods, dentures are generally more affordable and are a cost-effective solution for tooth replacement.
  • Enhanced Self-Esteem: Restoring your smile with dentures can significantly boost your confidence and improve your overall quality of life.

The Process of Getting Dentures

Initial Consultation: Your journey to a new smile begins with a consultation. Our dentist will examine your gums and the supporting bone structure to determine the appropriate treatment plan.

Impressions: If dentures are deemed suitable, impressions of your gums will be taken to create a precise model of your mouth. This model is used to craft your custom dentures.

Fitting and Adjustments: Once your dentures are prepared, you will have a fitting session to make any necessary adjustments. It’s essential that they fit comfortably and function effectively, so several appointments may be necessary to achieve the perfect fit.

Follow-Up Care: Adjusting to new dentures can take some time. We provide comprehensive care and guidance to ensure a smooth transition. Regular follow-up appointments are recommended to adjust the fit as needed and to monitor your oral health.
