Who Is a Good Candidate for Dentures?
The first thing that matters is if you feel comfortable in your smile. Missing teeth don't just affect the way your smile functions—they also impact how you feel every time you look in a mirror. If you're unhappy with your smile but otherwise have good oral health and a willingness to adhere to treatment, you could be a great candidate for dentures.
The first step is to schedule a consultation with our experienced dental team. During this visit, we’ll evaluate your mouth, discuss your goals, and confirm your candidacy.
Types of Dentures
Because every smile is different, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to dentures. Each type is designed to solve different problems and meet specific needs. We’ll discuss all your options and find the prosthetic that will be the most comfortable and effective for you.
Partial Dentures
If you're missing several teeth spread across an arch but still have many healthy teeth, a partial denture may be the perfect fit. These removable prosthetics use a metal framework to anchor to your existing teeth, filling in the gaps with lifelike replacements. This option requires little to no tooth preparation and can restore both aesthetics and function.
Full Dentures
When an entire arch of teeth is missing or beyond saving, a full denture can give you a complete, natural-looking smile. Full dentures rest on top of your gums and rely on natural suction and muscle control to stay in place. Our team crafts each set to complement your facial features and deliver a comfortable, confident fit.
Implant Dentures
For patients who want the stability of a fixed restoration and less maintenance overall, implant dentures offer the best of both worlds. A small number of dental implant posts are placed into your jawbone and used to anchor your denture, maintain your jawbone health, and restore over 70% of your biting force. That means there’s no slipping, no need for adhesives, and no reason to avoid the foods you love.
The Benefits of Dentures
Modern dentures are more comfortable and lifelike than ever, and the benefits go well beyond just filling a gap:
- Natural Appearance: Each set of dentures is made to look and feel just like natural teeth and gums.
- Eat the Foods You Love: Your prosthetics restore your bite strength, allowing you to enjoy a full, varied diet without discomfort.
- Support Your Facial Structure: Dentures fill out your cheeks and lips, preventing the sunken appearance that missing teeth can cause over time.
- Highly Affordable: Compared to other tooth replacement options, dentures are one of the most budget-friendly solutions available.
- Easy Maintenance: A simple daily routine is all it takes to keep your prosthetics fresh, clean, and long-lasting.
