What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable or implant-supported appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore the appearance and function of your smile. Today’s dentures are more comfortable and natural-looking than ever before, offering reliable solutions for patients at any stage of life.
Dentures help:
- Improve oral function and quality of life
- Restore your ability to chew and speak comfortably
- Support facial structure and prevent a “sunken” appearance
- Boost confidence with a complete, natural-looking smile
- Replace several or all missing teeth
Types of Dentures We Offer
Full Dentures
Full dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth on the upper or lower jaw. They are custom-made for comfort, stability, and a natural appearance.
Ideal for patients who have lost most or all teeth.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures fill gaps when some natural teeth remain. Using discreet clasps or precision attachments, they help prevent shifting and restore seamless function.
These are a cost-effective and reliable solution when only certain teeth need replacement.
Implant-Supported Dentures
For superior stability and comfort, implant-supported dentures attach securely to dental implants placed in the jaw. These dentures won’t slip or shift, allowing you to speak, eat, and smile with confidence.
