Dentures are a reliable and effective solution for replacing missing teeth, restoring both function and aesthetics to your smile. Whether you have lost teeth due to decay, gum disease or injury, dentures can help you regain confidence in your appearance and improve your ability to eat and speak properly. Depending on your specific needs, our dentists may recommend complete or partial dentures to restore your smile.

Complete Dentures: A Full-Arch Solution

Complete dentures are designed to replace an entire arch of missing teeth. If you are missing all of your upper or lower teeth, complete dentures provide a comfortable and natural-looking restoration. These dentures rest directly on your gums and are custom-crafted to fit securely. In some cases, a denture adhesive may be used to improve stability and enhance comfort.

For patients who require additional support, implant-supported dentures may be an option. These dentures attach to dental implants placed in the jawbone, offering a secure fit and improved chewing efficiency compared to traditional dentures.

Partial Dentures: Filling the Gaps

If you are missing several teeth but still have some healthy natural teeth, a partial denture may be the ideal choice. Partial dentures are designed to fit around existing teeth and often include a lightweight framework with clasps or precision attachments for added stability. These dentures not only restore function but also prevent the remaining teeth from shifting out of place.

Partial dentures can be made from a variety of materials, including acrylic and metal, ensuring durability and a natural appearance. They are carefully customized to match the shape, size and color of your existing teeth, blending seamlessly with your smile.

The Benefits of Dentures

Dentures provide numerous benefits beyond simply replacing missing teeth. They enhance your ability to chew a wide range of foods, allowing you to maintain a balanced diet. They also restore facial volume, preventing the sunken appearance that often accompanies tooth loss. Additionally, dentures improve speech clarity, making it easier to communicate confidently in social and professional settings.

Caring For Your Dentures

Proper care is essential to maintaining the longevity and comfort of your dentures. They should be cleaned daily using a soft brush and denture cleanser to remove plaque and food debris. It is also important to keep your gums and any remaining natural teeth clean to prevent oral health issues. Dr. Krista Farr, Dr. Jessica Bains and Dr. Eric Mack recommend regular checkups to ensure a proper fit and make any necessary adjustments.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures

How long does it take to adjust to wearing dentures?

+
Adjusting to dentures can take a few weeks as your mouth adapts to the new appliance. You may experience minor soreness, increased saliva production or difficulty speaking at first. With time and practice, these issues typically improve. Our dentists can make adjustments to your prosthetic if needed for better comfort.

Can I sleep with my dentures in?

+
Dentists generally recommend removing dentures at night to allow your gums and jaw to rest. This helps prevent irritation and promotes healthy oral tissues. Soaking dentures in a denture-cleaning solution overnight keeps them clean and prevents them from drying out. Our dentists will provide specific care instructions based on your needs.

How often should I replace my dentures?

+
Dentures typically last five to 10 years, but their lifespan depends on wear, changes in your oral structures and maintenance. Over time, they may become loose or worn, requiring adjustments or replacement. Regular dental visits ensure that your dentures continue to fit properly and function as intended.

What should I do if my dentures feel loose?

+
Loose dentures can cause discomfort and difficulty eating or speaking. This may occur due to natural bone loss over time. Our dentists can assess whether a simple adjustment, a denture reline or a replacement is necessary. In some cases, implant-supported dentures provide a more secure and stable option.
