Who is a Good Candidate for Dentures?
Dentures can be an excellent tooth loss solution for most patients who are missing either several or all of their teeth along an arch. At your initial consultation, our team will take any necessary X-rays and conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and gums to help you determine whether dentures are right for you. Typically, we look for patients who have healthy gums, as they’ll be supporting the restoration, and good oral health.
Types of Dentures
Depending on the location of your missing teeth as well as your unique smile goals, our team will help you determine what type of dentures would best fit your needs:
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are designed to fit like a puzzle piece between your existing teeth, slotting replacement teeth exactly where they need to be in order to fill multiple gaps throughout your mouth. They feature a metal base that supports gum-colored acrylic and natural-looking replacement teeth.
Full Dentures
Full dentures don’t have a metal base, as they’re designed to fit comfortably and precisely over the gumline. As they sit atop the gums, they’ll be anchored in place by suction that naturally occurs within the mouth, which is why the fit of your dentures is so important. Once you pass the short adjustment period, you’ll find it much easier to eat and speak with your dentures in.
Implant Dentures
For patients looking for a more stable, strong, and lifelike solution to tooth loss, implant dentures in Arlington may be the best option. These restore the root structure of missing teeth in addition to their visible crowns. Because of this, patients are able to regain up to 90% of their original bite power as well as eliminate any concerns for slipping and shifting that can occur with traditional full dentures.
The Benefits of Dentures
Dentures have a lot to offer, which is why so many patients opt to invest in them! Some of the advantages that you can enjoy include:
- Long-lasting and easy to maintain
- Preservation of facial shape
- Preservation of dental alignment
- Ability to eat a greater variety of foods
- Improved speaking abilities
- Custom-crafted to look natural
