Partial and Full Dentures

Dentures provide affordable and straightforward solutions for tooth replacement, offering a viable option for restoring both function and aesthetics. They are especially beneficial for patients who have lost multiple teeth, as they help maintain the structure of the mouth and support proper chewing and speaking abilities. Whether you're missing a few teeth or an entire set, dentures can be custom-made to fit your mouth comfortably and securely, ensuring a natural look and feel.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are specifically designed for patients who are missing only a few teeth. These dentures consist of one or more artificial teeth attached to a gum-colored base, which is often connected to a metal framework that holds the denture in place. Partial dentures are a great option for filling gaps between natural teeth, preventing remaining teeth from shifting, and maintaining the alignment of the bite. They can be easily removed for cleaning and are typically less invasive and more affordable than other tooth replacement options like implants.

Full Dentures

Full dentures, on the other hand, are used for patients who need to replace all their teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, or both. These dentures consist of a full set of artificial teeth set in a gum-colored acrylic base that sits snugly on the gums. Full dentures restore the full arch of teeth, allowing patients to regain their ability to eat a wide range of foods and speak clearly. Like partial dentures, full dentures are custom-made to fit the unique contours of a patient's mouth, providing a secure fit that can be enhanced with dental adhesives if needed. It is important to consult with your dentist to determine the most suitable type of denture, considering factors such as oral health, lifestyle, and financial considerations.
