You’ve already suffered from the effects of tooth loss. You know that living without teeth is a road that you don’t want to travel down forever, and thankfully your local office offers dentures to help you recover your oral health.
Patients who have experienced any level of tooth loss know that you need an effective, long-lasting solution that can help you complete your smile again. Even if you just have a few sporadic missing teeth, it’s still a top priority to replace them—and you can do just that with the help of restorative dentistry from our office.
If you’re in need of dentures in Falls City, this blog post is for you!
What Type of Dentures Are Right for You?
Dentures are restorative prosthetics that are personalized to match your level of tooth loss, replacing your specific missing teeth. They’re crafted from high-quality dental materials that make up a gum-colored base. Your replacement teeth are attached to this base and serve as an aesthetically pleasing tooth replacement. You have three different denture options to choose from depending on your level of tooth loss.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are best for patients that may have just a few missing teeth between their existing natural teeth. They could be sporadic around the smile. Your denture would fit your replacement teeth right between your remaining natural teeth to complete your smile once again.
Full Dentures
Full (complete) dentures are perfect for edentulous patients (people that have no existing natural teeth left). They are also perfect for someone who has a whole missing arch of teeth, even if it’s only one and not both arches. Full dentures will complete your smile once again by replacing a full arch(es) of teeth.
Implant Retained Dentures
Implant retained dentures combine dental implants and dentures to create a stable, permanent tooth replacement option. They hold your denture (whether it’s a full or partial) in place by anchoring your prosthetic down to your jaw.
The Benefits of Implant Retained Dentures
By providing stabilizing roots for your denture prosthetic, dental implants offer one of the best, long-lasting tooth replacement solution. The benefits of this method for securing a denture are numerous. They include:
- Better jaw bone stability for the rest of your smile.
- Never having to use a denture adhesive or experience slippage issues.
- Speaking with confidence, eliminating the difficulties that dentures can pose.
- Enjoying your favorite foods again because you can chew with no problem.
- A long-lasting replacement option that’s built to withstand normal wear and tear over the years.
