Who is a Good Candidate for Dentures?
If you are missing one or more teeth, there is a good chance that you will qualify for full or partial dentures. The type of denture you receive will ultimately be determined based on the number of teeth you are missing. But before we can begin to discuss the proposed treatment plan, we will need to conduct a thorough examination of your oral anatomy to make sure you are not suffering from gum disease or additional decay. If so, we will recommend the necessary treatment before helping you move forward with receiving your dentures.
Types of Dentures
As part of your initial consultation, Dr. Hamad will discuss the different types of dentures that we offer. These include:
Partial Dentures
If your missing teeth are scattered along the upper or lower arch, we can supply you with a partial denture. Designed to mimic the look of natural gum tissue, these prosthetics support artificial teeth and fit like puzzle pieces. They also consist of a metal framework that attaches to healthy abutment teeth for easy removal.
Full Dentures
Full dentures are made to fit the shape of your mouth and use natural suction to remain in place. Used to replace an entire row of teeth, these prosthetics are made of the same gum-colored acrylic as partials and allow for improved eating, speaking and smiling.
Implant Dentures
Different from removable prosthetics, dentures held in place by dental implants offer maximum stability. Implants are placed within the jawbone and fuse over time to adequately support a full denture that looks, feels and acts just like regular teeth. With proper maintenance, they can last decades or even a lifetime.
