Dentures
Restore your smile with full or partial dentures.
Missing teeth can impact more than just how you look—they can affect the way you eat, speak, and feel every day.
Dentures offer a reliable, affordable way to restore your smile and improve your quality of life, whether you’re missing a few teeth or all of them.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are custom-made dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore both function and appearance. They’re made to look and feel as natural as possible, giving you the freedom to smile, chew, and speak with confidence again.
There are two main types of dentures:
- Complete Dentures – Used when all teeth are missing in either the upper or lower arch.
- Partial Dentures – Ideal when some natural teeth remain and help keep the denture stable.
Types of Dentures We Offer
We provide different denture options depending on your specific needs and preferences:
Conventional Full Dentures
Made after your gums have healed from extractions, these provide a secure, comfortable fit once healing is complete.
Immediate Dentures
Placed the same day as extractions, these allow you to leave with teeth, though adjustments may be needed as healing occurs.
Partial Dentures
Designed to fit around natural teeth, these fill gaps using clasps or attachments and help prevent shifting over time.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Secured to dental implants for added stability, these stay in place without adhesive and offer long-term function and comfort.
What to Expect During the Denture Process
Creating your new smile involves a few steps over several visits to ensure everything fits and functions just right:
1. Consultation & Impressions
We’ll take precise impressions and measurements of your mouth, discuss your goals, and help you choose the best type of denture for your needs.
2. Custom Fitting
Your dentures will be crafted at a dental lab to match your mouth’s unique shape, color, and bite.
3. “Try-In” Appointments
You’ll test the fit, bite, and appearance of the denture before it’s finalized—ensuring a comfortable and natural look.
4. Final Placement & Adjustments
Once everything is perfect, your dentures are fitted and adjusted. Additional tweaks may be made over time to ensure long-term comfort.
Adjusting to Life with Dentures
It’s normal to experience some minor adjustments as your mouth gets used to your new appliance. You may notice:
- Slight soreness or pressure points
- Increased saliva production
- Temporary changes in speech or chewing
These issues typically resolve as your mouth adapts. We’ll be here to support you through the transition and make any needed adjustments to your dentures.
Caring for Your Dentures
With proper care, your dentures can last many years. Here’s how to keep them in top shape:
- Remove and rinse after eating
- Brush daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive cleanser
- Soak overnight in denture solution to keep them moist
- Handle with care to avoid bending or breaking
- Visit us regularly to ensure a proper fit and check your oral health
Keep in mind that over time, dentures may need to be relined, rebased, or remade due to normal wear or changes in your mouth.
