Who Needs Dentures?

Anyone missing teeth or who needs to have teeth extracted is a candidate for dentures. Dentures are most commonly used to replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw. We can also use them to replace just a few missing teeth. We offer the best high quality dentures in Clinton!

 

What are the Benefits of Dentures?

There are many benefits to wearing dentures, including:

-Improved appearance

-Improved ability to speak

-Improved ability to eat

-Improved self-esteem

Dentures can also help support the lips and cheeks, which can become sunken when teeth are missing. So dentures can help give you that vibrant, youthful appearance you desire. 

 

How do I Know if Dentures are Right for Me?

The first step in getting dentures is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Henry or Dr. Greer. We will examine your mouth during the consultation and talk to you about your treatment options and the different dentures types which might suit your needs.

 

What are the Different Types of Dentures?

There are two main types of dentures: full and partial.

We use complete dentures to replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw. The gums and natural mouth contours support them. 

We can use partial dentures to replace just a few missing teeth. They are supported by the gums and the natural mouth contours, as well as by natural teeth.

Dentures can be either fixed or removable. Fixed dentures are attached to the teeth with specialized dental technology or bonding material, and they are not meant to be removed. Removable dentures are held in place by suction or clasps and can be removed for cleaning and sleeping.

 

How are Dentures Made?

Dentures are usually made of acrylic, and we carefully sculpt them using digital-modeling technology and the latest innovations in dentistry. 

The process of getting dentures usually takes a few weeks. First, Dr. Henry or Greer will take impressions of your teeth and gums. We will use these impressions to create a model of your mouth. Then, the dentist will use the model to design your dentures.

Once the dentures are ready, you will come in for a fitting. The dentist will make sure that the dentures fit comfortably and look natural. We will take the time to carefully adjust them as necessary, ensuring they are comfortable and that you like the way they look. 

 

How Long Do Dentures Last?

Dentures are made to last for many years. However, they may need to be replaced or relined over time. Taking good care of your dentures will help them last longer. Be sure to brush them daily and soak them in a denture cleanser. Avoid using harsh toothpaste or cleaners, as these can damage the dentures.

 

How Much Do Dentures Cost?

The cost of dentures varies depending on the type of denture and the materials used. Complete dentures usually cost more than partial dentures. Fixed dentures tend to be more expensive than removable dentures.
