Dentures and Partials
Dentures are a replacement for missing teeth. A full denture replaces an entire row of teeth, either on the upper gumline or on the lower gumline. Partial dentures replace only missing teeth and can be configured in many ways. We help patients with both full and partial dentures on a regular basis.
In addition to needing braces, if you have issues related to TMJ, we can apply our training in neuroumuscular dentistry to the design of your dentures to give you a fit that places your jaw into the best position to ease your jaw disorder.
Dentures replace both the missing teeth and tissues nearby that held the teeth in place. Sometimes extractions are necessary depending on your diagnosis. One advantage of dentures is that they are removable, making for easy cleaning and adjustment. Made of resin and porcelain, complete dentures are used to replace all the teeth.
In addition to restoring function and esthetics to the area where teeth are missing, partial dentures keep nearby healthy teeth from moving and creating further problems.
Both full and partial dentures improve chewing ability and speech. Restoring the teeth supports facial muscles, as well, so you do not begin to get a hollowed-out appearance due to the loss of teeth.
