Understanding Dentures
Dentures are an excellent solution for those who have lost some or all of their teeth. They are removable replacements that can help you regain the functional aspects of your teeth and the confidence that comes with a bright, full smile. We offer customized denture solutions tailored to your lifestyle and preferences.
Full Dentures
Complete dentures are suitable for individuals who have lost all their natural teeth due to periodontal disease, tooth decay, or injury. We design our complete dentures to mimic the look and feel of natural teeth, offering both upper and lower sets that fit comfortably on your gums. We take great care in crafting dentures that not only function well but also enhance your appearance and facial structure.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are an ideal option for those missing just a few teeth. These dentures fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and prevent other teeth from shifting position, which can maintain your overall dental alignment. Our partial dentures are custom-made to fit seamlessly with your existing teeth, ensuring a natural and comfortable fit.
The Denture Process
We believe in making the denture process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Here’s what you can expect when you decide to get dentures with us:
- Consultation and Examination: The first step involves a thorough consultation, during which we discuss your dental history, take measurements, and determine which type of denture best suits your needs.
- Impression and Measurement: We’ll take detailed impressions or scans of your mouth to ensure your dentures fit perfectly. This step is crucial for crafting a comfortable and practical set of dentures.
- Selection of Teeth: You’ll have the opportunity to choose the shade and shape of the teeth in your dentures, tailoring them to look natural and aesthetically pleasing.
- Fitting: We’ll schedule a fitting appointment once your dentures are ready. This is essential to ensure that your dentures feel right and function as expected. Adjustments can be made as needed for optimal comfort.
Caring for Your Dentures
Just like natural teeth, dentures require regular care to maintain appearance and function. Keeping your dentures clean and handling them carefully can greatly extend their lifespan. Here are a few simple tips:
- Daily Cleaning: Use a gentle denture brush and non-abrasive cleanser to remove food particles and plaque.
- Soak Overnight: Keep your dentures in water or a mild denture-soaking solution when not in use to prevent them from drying out.
- Regular Check-ups: Schedule routine visits with us to ensure your dentures remain in good condition, align comfortably, and work effectively.
