Who is a Good Candidate for Dentures?

Dentures are typically recommended for those who are missing multiple teeth or a full arch of teeth. Our team can help you determine whether this tooth replacement option is right for you by carefully examining your smile and considering the specifics of your situation. Note that you might require treatment for gum disease and other oral health issues before you can move forward with the process of getting dentures. 

Types of Dentures

Two full dentures and two partial dentures

There are three main types of dentures available at our practice: traditional partial dentures, traditional full dentures, and implant dentures. Each of these tooth replacement options has its own advantages that make it worth considering. You can count on our team to help you figure out which kind of denture is right for you based on your needs.

Partial Dentures

A partial denture is designed to replace teeth in different parts of a single arch. It fits into the gaps in your smile like a puzzle piece and relies on metal clasps to stay in place. You can take a partial denture out of your mouth in order to thoroughly clean it or the area under it.

Full Dentures

Full dentures make it possible to replace an entire arch of teeth with a single prosthesis. This type of denture sits on the gums and stays in place thanks to natural suction. Like partial dentures, you can remove full dentures at any time for cleaning purposes. 

Implant Dentures

An implant denture is a partial or full denture that has been anchored to a number of dental implant posts that have been surgically placed in the jaw. The implant posts act as artificial tooth roots, giving your replacement teeth improved stability and chewing power. While implant dentures can be removable, they are often designed to stay in the mouth 24/7, which allows you to brush them as if they were natural teeth.

The Benefits of Dentures

  • Improving your ability to eat a wider variety of foods.
  • Enhancing your speech.
  • Being easy to take care of.
  • Preserving the overall shape of your face.
  • Having a lifespan of 10 years or longer with the right maintenance.
