Full Dentures (conventional and implant-supported)
Dentures provide a cost-effective solution for replacing missing teeth, with a proven track record of success. They remain a reliable option for restoring your smile. Dentures come in full or partial options, replacing all or just a few missing teeth, respectively, to improve chewing and fill any gaps. We provide personalized denture treatment at our comprehensive dental clinic, tailoring it to each patient’s specific needs. Trust us to help you determine which approach is best for your situation.
In some cases, dental issues may become difficult to manage and may result in the decision to remove all remaining teeth on one or both jaws. Full dentures provide an economical and efficient solution to restore function and smile.
A complete denture comprises a thin acrylic base that rests on the gum tissue and is the same color as your gums. It is fitted with porcelain or acrylic replacement teeth that resemble natural teeth emerging from the gums. Our dental specialist, Dr. Sarah Behmanesh, has the expertise to assist you in selecting teeth that appear most natural and harmonious in your smile to give you the option of customizing your look, while dentures have a long history of use, modern technology provides better options to improve their fit and appearance. In many cases, dental implants can be used to secure dentures more firmly to the jaw, enhancing retention and creating a more natural look. Dr. Sarah Behmanesh can explain these options and help you understand how they can improve your denture-wearing experience. Signs your dentures need adjustment or repair include discomfort, difficulty speaking or eating, and visible cracks or damage. Let us help you maintain the best fit for your smile!
Partial Dentures
Whether you have lost one or multiple teeth, it can be difficult to chew and smile with the gaps left behind. Fortunately, partial dentures provide an economical solution to replace missing teeth and fill in the spaces, improving chewing ability and confidence in smiling. In addition to these benefits, a partial denture can also prevent natural teeth from shifting, reducing the risk of tooth loss in the future.
Typically, partial dentures contain a thin metal framework that rests near your gums to provide a smooth, comfortable fit. This framework is supported by your natural teeth and features natural-looking replacement teeth, while gum-colored acrylic ensures that the appliance blends seamlessly with your mouth. As your needs are unique, we work with skilled technicians to create a personalized solution that is both comfortable and esthetic.
With advances in technology, implants can also support removable partial dentures, leading to a more secure fit and a reduction in appliance size. Although dentures may pose some initial challenges for new wearers, our goal is to minimize everyday frustrations to improve your quality of life.
We look forward to discussing your tooth replacement options and helping you achieve a full, confident smile.
