Whether from disease, malnutrition or genetic disorders, sometimes it is necessary for us to remove all of a patient's teeth. While this can be devastating, dentures can provide a second chance at a beautiful smile. Having complete dentures help with chewing as well as support one's facial structure and improve speech. With immediate dentures, you can have a full set of teeth while you are waiting for your gums to heal and your bone to realign after having teeth removed. This can take up to six months, so immediate dentures are a great alternative during that time. Sometimes, complete dentures are not necessary. Partial dentures can replace a string of missing teeth, and are secured to your remaining teeth with clasps. Additionally, implant retained dentures allow people with a gag reflex issue or limited vertical bone for denture stabilization to maintain lower and upper dentures. Implant retained dentures are a more affordable alternative to a full mouth of individual implants. No matter which kind of dentures you choose, you can be assured to receive natural-looking dentures that match your facial structure and desired tooth color.
