PARTIAL AND FULL DENTURES
Are you missing most or all of your natural teeth? One of the best ways to restore your smile in these cases is to get dentures or partials. They will restore your smile, your facial structure and also your oral functionalities. These dental appliances can go a long way in improving your overall oral health. At Dr. Stella Gonzalez, we offer high quality dentures fully customized to the shape of your mouth. They are durable with high wearability and are very comfortable to wear.
What are Dentures?
Dentures are artificial teeth and gums that your dentist customizes to the shape of your mouth. They help replace and restore missing teeth. Depending on how many teeth you are missing, you can get a full or partial denture. They would replace all of your upper and lower jaw teeth or the few that are missing. Regardless of the type of dentures you get, they will be customized to fit your mouth properly. In the case of partials, they would be made to match your remaining natural teeth.
Definition of Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are often used when the remaining teeth are not strong enough to support other restorative procedures, such as dental bridges. They can be used efficiently when more than one tooth is missing. Partial dentures sit at the gum line where teeth are missing, and also attach to neighboring natural teeth, giving them stability.
Benefits of Dentures and Partials
There are several benefits of getting dentures and partials:
- They help address complex tooth loss problems.
- They will restore your facial aesthetics and oral functions even if you have no teeth.
- With proper care, these dental appliances can last for years.
- They fit comfortably inside your mouth.
Who is an Ideal Candidate for Dentures and Partials?
Patients who have witnessed significant tooth loss but have healthy gums and jaws are ideal for dentures and partials. However, if a person is missing only one tooth, a dental bridge may be a better option. When you come to our dental office, our professional will thoroughly examine your teeth and mouth before deciding which restorative procedure would work best for you.
