Dentures Near You
Dentures are worn by patients missing one or more teeth. They are custom-designed to mimic the appearance of natural teeth but can be removed at any time. This removable appliance can enhance the smiles of those faced with tooth loss.
Complete Denture
A complete denture is worn, when a patient is missing all of their permanent teeth. It can either be conventional or immediate. If you have a conventional denture, that means it is designed once your teeth have already been extracted and your gum tissue has finished healing¬, which usually takes four to six weeks. You will be toothless at this point in the process. An immediate denture, is pre-made and is placed in your mouth immediately following a tooth extraction, this prevents you from having to live without teeth until your mouth has healed. Adjustments will take place once your tissues have shrunk and healed.
Partial Dentures
A partial denture, on the other hand, is worn when only some of your natural, permanent teeth are missing. Not only does it fill in the empty spaces formed by absent teeth, but it also prevents your other adjacent teeth from drifting out of place.
