Dentures

If you've lost your natural teeth dentures can replace your missing teeth and return your smile.

Replacing missing teeth benefits your smile and health. Without support from the teeth, facial muscles sag, making a person look older. Teeth allow you to be able to eat and speak comfortably - things that people often take for granted until their natural teeth are lost.

Full Dentures

There are various types of full dentures. A conventional full denture is made and placed in the patient's mouth after the remaining teeth are removed and tissues have healed which may take several months.

If you have multiple broken down teeth that require removal and then a denture placed, immediate dentures may be for you.This type of denture is inserted as soon as the remaining teeth are removed, so you are never without teeth.

Implant dentures are those stabilized by implants screwed into your jaw bone – Imagine having your own teeth back!

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures replace one or more missing teeth and are designed to be held in place by clipping onto your remaining natural teeth. The base of the partial denture can either be made from acrylic (plastic) or metal (see examples below). The metal dentures often last longer and fit more securely.
