Denture FAQs

What Are Dentures?

A denture is a removable prosthetic that will replace your teeth. Edentulous patients – or those missing all of their teeth – will benefit from complete dentures. Built on a pink high-quality acrylic base that supports white acrylic or porcelain teeth, it will rest over your top or bottom dental ridge, replacing a complete series of teeth. A complete denture relies on natural suction in your mouth for support.

If you suffer from multiple missing teeth to severe tooth loss, we may suggest a partial denture. Similar to the complete version, it includes a small amount of pink acrylic, replacement teeth, open spaces that rest around your remaining teeth, and metal clasps that rest securely over your remaining natural teeth for support.

Why Should I Choose Dentures?

Replacing your teeth is important – and something you can efficiently accomplish with budget-friendly dentures. You can expect the following benefits from this decision:

  • You will enjoy a complete smile for improved confidence
  • You will be able to chew comfortably again for improved nutrition and the ability to enjoy your meals
  • Replacing your teeth gives you the ability to speak clearly again
  • Restoring the interior framework of your mouth – your teeth – supports your lower face to prevent your teeth from sinking in or your facial muscles and features from sagging for a rejuvenated appearance
