What’s the difference between full and partial dentures?
Whether a patient receives full or partial dentures depends on how many teeth are missing or need to be removed and replaced. Full dentures are suitable for patients who have lost all of their natural teeth in one or both arches, while partial dentures are designed for individuals who need several teeth replaced but not all of them. Full dentures replace an entire arch, providing support and functionality, while partial dentures clip onto nearby teeth, fill in gaps, and help prevent the adjacent teeth from shifting.
Should I get dentures, implants, or a dental bridge?
Choosing between dentures, implants, or a dental bridge depends on your unique needs and preferences. Dental implants are a permanent solution that mimics natural teeth, providing stability and durability, but not everyone is eligible to receive them. Bridges are fixed restorations that replace missing teeth by anchoring onto adjacent natural teeth, but patients do not always want to modify healthy teeth to have a bridge placed. Our team can help you determine if implants, bridges, or custom full or partial dentures will be the perfect option for you.
Do dentures look natural?
In the past, dentures have been known to be uncomfortable to wear and very fake in appearance. Thanks to advancements in dental technology, dentures are now crafted with high-quality materials and designed to closely resemble natural teeth and gums. Our skilled team takes meticulous care to match the color, shape, and size of the replacement teeth to your existing ones. With the right fit and proper adjustments, our custom dentures can provide a natural look that both boosts your confidence and restores your smile.
