Dentures

Types of Dentures:

• Full Dentures: These are used when all the natural teeth in a dental arch (upper or lower) are missing. Full dentures are designed to fit snugly over the gums, providing a complete set of artificial teeth that look and function like natural teeth.

• Partial Dentures: Ideal for individuals who have lost some but not all of their teeth, partial dentures consist of a metal or acrylic framework with replacement teeth attached. They are designed to fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and are secured with clasps or precision attachments to the remaining natural teeth.

• Implant-Supported Dentures: For added stability and comfort, implant-supported dentures are anchored to dental implants placed in the jawbone. This type of denture provides a more secure fit and improved functionality compared to traditional dentures.

Benefits of Dentures:

• Restored Function: Dentures restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile confidently. They allow you to enjoy a variety of foods and engage in social activities without worrying about gaps in your smile.

• Enhanced Appearance: Dentures are custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, providing a natural-looking smile that enhances your facial aesthetics.

• Support for Facial Structure: By replacing missing teeth, dentures help support the shape of your face and prevent sagging of the cheeks and lips, which can occur with tooth loss.

• Customizable Options: Modern dentures are designed with comfort and aesthetics in mind. They can be tailored to fit your unique oral anatomy and personal preferences, ensuring a comfortable and natural-looking result.

The Denture Process:
Getting dentures typically involves several steps:

1. Initial Consultation: During your initial visit, we will assess your oral health, discuss your needs, and create a personalized treatment plan. This may include taking impressions of your mouth to design custom dentures.

2. Fitting and Adjustments: Once your dentures are ready, they will be carefully fitted to ensure proper alignment and comfort. Adjustments may be made to achieve the perfect fit and bite.

3. Follow-Up Visits: Regular follow-up visits will help ensure that your dentures continue to fit well and function properly. We will make any necessary adjustments and provide guidance on caring for your dentures.

Care and Maintenance:
Proper care and maintenance are essential for the longevity of your dentures. Daily cleaning with a denture brush and mild soap, along with regular dental check-ups, will help keep your dentures in good condition and your mouth healthy. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or hot water, as these can damage the dentures.
