Who Is a Good Candidate for Dentures?
Tooth loss can significantly change your life by making it difficult to chew properly, speak clearly, and smile confidently. While dentures can be an excellent solution for many people with missing teeth, a patient who isn’t missing all the teeth along a dental arch may benefit more from another restoration such as a bridge. You will need to have healthy gums before you receive dentures, but we’ll be happy to address soft tissue infections with gum disease treatments.
Types of Dentures
There are several types of dentures available, and the best one for you depends on how many teeth you are missing and where they were located. After we evaluate your mouth during your consultation, we may recommend:
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures can replace several or many teeth throughout the mouth. They consist of artificial teeth set in a gum-colored base, and they may also feature metal clips designed to fasten the appliance to the patient’s remaining natural pearly whites.
Full Dentures
A full denture is designed to replace all the teeth of a dental arch, and it holds itself in place within the mouth through natural suction. Each of these appliances is completely customized to ensure that it fits the patient’s gums comfortably.
Implant Dentures
If you’re looking for a permanent solution to your tooth loss, implant dentures may be for you. These appliances are much like traditional dentures except they are anchored securely in the mouth with dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone. Implant dentures can be a great option for those who are frustrated with their traditional restorations since they restore almost all the patient’s chewing power and can last much longer if they receive excellent care.
The Benefits of Dentures
Each set of dentures is completely customized based on precise measurements of the patient’s mouth and crafted using high-quality materials to ensure that they look and function like real teeth. Dentures can allow a patient to enjoy a diverse diet of healthy foods that helps them preserve their overall health, and they also offer a number of aesthetic benefits such as a complete smile and preventing the cheeks from looking hollow. These appliances can also be a cost-effective way for budget-conscious patients to restore their grins, and they only require a simple hygiene and maintenance regimen to stay in great shape for years.
