DENTURES
Dentures
Also known as false teeth or plates are custom made replacements for missing teeth. We offer many kinds of dentures including complete (full) and partial. The material used to fabricate your custom denture will be decided between you and your dentist and based on your individual need. Both complete and partial dentures can be implant supported for extra retention.
- With full dentures, the upper denture covers the palate, and the lower denture makes space for your tongue and covers your lower gum and teeth.
- Full dentures are usually required when a person has lost all their teeth or has had them removed.
- Partial dentures are used to replace several missing teeth in a row; they temporarily attach to your natural teeth. Partial dentures are like dental bridges, they are removable and are a great alternative if most of your teeth and gums are in healthy condition.
Your dentist will determine which type of denture is best for you, based on your individual needs.
Bridges
A bridge is a fixed (non-removable) solution to replace one or more missing teeth. The replacement tooth is anchored to crowns placed over the adjacent teeth to give you a proper bite, function and added aesthetics to your smile.
