Who Is a Good Candidate for Dentures?
Dentures can be a great option for almost anyone who is struggling with the consequences of missing teeth or severely damaged teeth. For example, you may consider getting them if it is difficult for you to chew a wide variety of foods, you feel embarrassed because of the gaps in your smile, or you cannot clearly enunciate words due to your poor dental health.
During your consultation, our team will assess the health of your gums, the extent of your tooth loss, and other relevant factors in order to determine if dentures are a good fit for your unique situation.
Types of Dentures
There are multiple types of dentures, and the best one for you depends on how many teeth you are missing, your personal preferences, and more. When you visit us to talk about your tooth replacement journey, we may recommend that you get a partial denture, a full denture, or an implant denture.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures do not replace all the teeth throughout a dental arch. Rather, these prosthetics fit in around the remaining natural teeth — sort of like a puzzle piece. Small metal or acrylic clasps help partial dentures to stay secure in the mouth while you are eating and speaking.
Full Dentures
A full denture replaces all of the upper or lower teeth. Natural suction or a bit of adhesive helps full dentures to stay in place. These restorations usually have an acrylic base along with teeth that are made of acrylic or porcelain.
Implant Dentures
Implant dentures are anchored in the jawbone via small metal posts (dental implants). The implants act as prosthetic tooth roots, so they make the dentures very stable and strong. We often recommend implant dentures as the best option for qualified patients.
The Benefits of Dentures
Dentures offer some noteworthy benefits:
- Beautiful aesthetics: We carefully design dentures so they complement the natural features of each patient.
- Reliable function: After you adapt to your dentures, you should be able to eat a wide variety of nutritious foods.
- Secure fit: Dentures are custom-designed to fit the unique contours of your gums.
- Easy maintenance: Taking care of dentures does not require a lot of extra time or a complicated cleaning process.
