Denture options in our office
Dentures present an invaluable step to restore your smile and oral health. Dentures come in many shapes and sizes to accommodate numerous needs. Dr. Nhu Le offers the denture options below.
- Complete dentures: Are you missing teeth in an entire arch or both? While it’s hard to imagine, it’s possible to lose all your teeth to accident, gum disease, or widespread tooth decay. Dentures can make a world of difference when you have extensive tooth loss. Full dentures comprise a set of prosthetic teeth secured on a gum-colored base. Complete dentures seamlessly integrate into your smile to restore aesthetics and oral function.
- Partials: Partial dentures restore your smile when some natural teeth remain in the mouth. Partials are secured on the remaining teeth with detachable metal clasps that can be removed for easier cleaning and maintenance.
Conventional dentures are secured in the mouth with adhesives and suction and can lose their grip over time. Implant dentures present a more solid alternative to traditional dentures. These dentures are secured in the mouth with dental implants strategically placed. Implant-supported dentures don’t shift, fall out, or produce embarrassing sounds when using your teeth.
What to expect from denture treatment
Restoring your smile with dentures takes a few easy visits to our office. The first step is a consultation to examine your teeth (if any), gums, and oral health to determine your suitability for dentures. If you are eligible, the dentist takes impressions of your bite to fabricate your dentures.
Our dental lab will use your impressions to custom-make your dentures. Once we receive your dentures, you’ll come to our office to pick them up. You’ll try your restorations, and we’ll make the necessary adjustments to achieve optimal fit and alignment.
It will take a few days for your mouth to get used to your restoration. First-time denture users experience changes in speech, increased saliva production, and feeling as if the mouth is full. Don’t worry! These discomforts are expected but only last a few days before you get used to your dentures. After the adjustment period, you’ll eat, speak, and smile confidently without the inconvenience of missing teeth.
