What are Dentures?

Dentures are a removable set of artificial teeth. They are customized to fit in your unique mouth. Please note, dentures will not be as strong as your natural teeth. However, they will greatly improve your ability to bite, chew, and speak. We are happy to provide dentures near you to help you become confident in your smile.

There are two types of dentures, partial and complete. Partial dentures are recommended to patients who are missing multiple teeth but have many healthy teeth remaining. The dentures will look very natural and seamlessly blend with your teeth. These dentures are removable and will be secured in your mouth using tiny clasps that hook onto your surrounding teeth.

Complete dentures are a full set of artificial teeth. They are ideal for patients who lost a majority of or all of their teeth. Complete dentures can be either immediate or conventional. If you decide to receive immediate dentures, they will be placed directly after the extraction of your remaining teeth. Conventional dentures will be created after the removal.
