• Restores Function: Customized dentures provide much-needed support for facial muscles to improve oral function.
• Speak Clearly: A balanced and comfortable restoration helps you pronounce words naturally

Versatility: Different denture kinds, such as full, partial, immediate, and conventional, are available, enabling customized solutions based on specific requirements.

What To Know About Each Denture Type

Candidate Checklist: Are Dentures Right for You?

Step-by-Step: Your Denture Journey

1. First Consultation: Our dentist will create a customized treatment plan to fulfill your needs and objectives following a comprehensive visual and digital assessment.
2. Impressions: For full or partial dentures, we start by taking detailed impressions of your mouth to build accurate models. Implant-supported dentures add a few extra stages.
3. Customized Design: Every pair of dentures is custom-made to fit your mouth, can help fill out your facial profile, fight drooping, and seem as much like your real teeth as possible. Immediate dentures are fabricated in advance before any necessary extractions occur. 
4. Application: Complete dentures are secured to the gums and mouth. Partial dentures, on the other hand, are designed to anchor to your other remaining teeth. Dental implants are placed in the jawbone for implant-supported dentures where they fuse with the bone over a period of months. Once the implants are fixed, removable dentures are fabricated that clip onto the implants.  
5. Delivery & Adjustments: We fine-tune pressure points, teach care routines, and schedule follow up. Precision attachment dentures might require crowns for the adjacent teeth and can be more expensive than clasp attachments
6. Long-Term Maintenance: Annual relines keep the fit snug as gums naturally change.

Caring For Dentures After Procedure

• Clean Every Day: Treat dentures like real teeth: brush them daily with a denture cleaner or mild soap, and rinse after meals to sweep away food bits, stains, and odor-causing bacteria. Rinse your dentures well after soaking or brushing with a cleaner before you pop them back in. And be sure to follow the directions on whatever cleaning product you use.
• Take Dentures Out at Bedtime: Let your gums breathe overnight. Soak the appliance in room-temperature water (plain water for any metal clasps) so it stays moist and keeps its proper shape.
• Report Any Damage: Notify us right away when or if you have any discomfort or if the device is damaged. To ensure that your gums and other oral tissues are healthy and that your denture is fitting correctly, schedule routine dental examinations.
  • Cuts, redness, or soreness in the mouth, as well as looseness in the denture itself, are indicators of poorly fitting dentures. It's crucial to schedule an appointment if you see any of these signs; do not attempt to alter the denture on your own.

Additional Guidelines For Denture Care

1. Dentures should never be placed in boiling water.
2. Dentures should always be kept submerged in water to prevent warping when not in use.
3. Only three or four pea-sized dollops of denture adhesive should be applied to each denture in order to give the prosthesis enough added stability and retention.
4. Plan on a quick denture checkup once a year. We will make sure the fit still feels right, look for any sore spots or bone changes, and give your overall oral health a thumbs-up.

How Much Do Dentures Cost?

The type of denture you require and the steps involved in your specific case will determine this. For instance, you might need to have your teeth extracted beforehand, and there may be additional lab costs, X-rays, etc. involved.
