Benefits of Dentures:
Improved Appearance
Dentures can restore the natural appearance of your smile, enhancing your overall facial aesthetics and boosting self-confidence.
Enhanced Chewing Ability
By replacing missing teeth, dentures restore proper chewing function, allowing you to enjoy a varied and nutritious diet.
Prevention of Shifting Teeth
Dentures help maintain the alignment of remaining natural teeth and prevent them from shifting out of place.
Types of Dentures
- Complete Dentures: Complete dentures are used when all teeth in the upper or lower jaw are missing. They consist of a flesh-coloured acrylic base that supports a set of artificial teeth.
- Partial Dentures: Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain in the upper or lower jaw. They are designed to fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: Implant-supported dentures are anchored in place by dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone. This provides increased stability and prevents dentures from slipping or moving during eating or speaking.
The Denture Process
- Initial Consultation: During your initial consultation, our dentist will assess your oral health and discuss your tooth replacement options, including dentures.
- Impressions: Detailed impressions of your mouth will be taken to ensure your dentures fit comfortably and securely.
- Design and Fabrication: Our skilled technicians will use the impressions to create custom-made dentures that are tailored to your unique oral anatomy and aesthetic preferences.
- Fitting and Adjustments: Once your dentures are ready, they will be fitted and adjusted as needed to ensure optimal comfort and functionality.
