Experience Improved Quality of Life
Dentures provide a lot more than just aesthetics—they can impact your lifestyle and well-being, including your comfort level in social settings, work situations, and family life. Those who struggle with major dental issues may find themselves feeling restrained in social or professional settings, resulting in a decreased sense of self-confidence.
Patients who require dentures often suffer from missing teeth or decaying teeth that require extraction. While dentures are more common among older patients, sometimes younger patients have unexpected tooth loss and also need dentures.
Whatever your reason for choosing dentures, our experienced dental team can provide you with a personalized, lasting, and reliable treatment for stunning results.
Our dedicated team understands the emotional toll dental issues can cause and is committed to providing solutions that go beyond the surface to address the root cause of the problem.
Treatment Options Based on Your Needs
With the help of our advanced dental technology and customized treatment plans, our dentures can provide a solution to your dental issues that will enhance your overall quality of life. There are multiple treatment options, including different styles of dentures, available based on what your needs and goals are, but we will work with you to give you the smile you have always wanted.
Dentures can change your smile and enhance your overall quality of life by restoring functionality, comfort, and aesthetics.
What Are My Denture Options?
To accommodate a variety of patients’ needs, we offer several types of dentures. Each comes with different advantages catered to each level of tooth loss. If you’re only missing a few teeth, partial dentures may be the best choice. If you’ve had extensive loss we have permanent and removable full dentures.
PARTIAL DENTURES
Partial dentures are great for a smile that has a few missing teeth but does not need a full smile makeover. This option allows you to keep your natural teeth while enhancing your confidence and oral health by completing your smile. Partial dentures seamlessly blend with your existing teeth and provide a comfortable, natural-looking solution for those with missing teeth.
FULL ARCH REPLACEMENTS
If you want a full smile makeover, then full arch replacements might be right for you. These will be customized according to the size, shape, and color you need to achieve your desired results. This option is what most would consider traditional dentures because they provide a complete smile.
IMPLANT-SUPPORTED DENTURES
Similar to full arch replacements, implant-supported dentures entail a complete smile makeover; the difference being that implant dentures are a permanent treatment. Titanium implants will be bonded with your jawbone to provide a stable, root-like base for the dentures. These implants will strengthen your jaw, which reduces your chance of TMD and limits facial wrinkles.
With all the benefits that implant-supported dentures offer, you will look and feel youthful for years to come. This treatment replicates the look and feel of natural teeth, making it a durable and aesthetic option. Since these dentures are implant-supported, they are not removable like traditional dentures.
REMOVABLE DENTURES
Removable dentures can entail partial and full traditional dentures—both have removable options so that you can choose what is right for your smile needs.
Our dental team can help you determine which type of dentures will help you achieve a stunning smile that enhances your features and quality of life.

Patient’s Transformative Stories
Don’t just take our word for it—hear from our satisfied patients whose lives have been transformed by our denture solutions. Their stories reflect the tangible impact our commitment to excellence has.
The Denture Process: What to Expect
The process of getting dentures typically takes a couple of visits to our office, with each step involving precise planning and customization.
- Initial Consultation: The process begins with a consultation with our dentist, who will assess your oral health, take x-rays, and discuss your specific needs. We will help determine which kind of dentures are best for you.
- Impressions and Measurements: Next, we will take impressions of your mouth to create a custom mold for your dentures. We may also take measurements of your bite and the position of your remaining teeth to ensure a comfortable fit.
- Fitting and Adjustments: Once your dentures are ready, they will be placed in your mouth, and we will make necessary adjustments to ensure a secure and comfortable fit. It may take a few fittings before the dentures feel just right.
- Follow-Up Appointments: After you receive your dentures, you’ll likely have a few follow-up appointments to ensure that your dentures fit correctly and comfortably. Dentures may feel strange at first, but with time, your mouth will adjust.
Caring for Your Dentures
To keep your dentures in the best shape and extend their lifespan, proper care is essential. Here are some tips to maintain your dentures:
- Clean Regularly: Just like natural teeth, dentures need to be cleaned daily. Use a soft-bristled brush and a mild dish soap or denture cleaner to remove food particles and plaque. Avoid using toothpaste, as it can be too abrasive for dentures.
- Soak Overnight: Remove your dentures overnight to give your gums a rest. Place them in a denture-safe solution or warm water to prevent them from drying out and losing their shape.
- Handle With Care: Dentures can break or get scratched if dropped or mishandled. Always handle them over a soft surface like a towel or basin of water to prevent damage.
- Attend Regular Dental Checkups: Even if you wear dentures, it’s important to have regular dental checkups to monitor your oral health and ensure your dentures fit correctly. Our dental team can also check for signs of gum irritation or infection.

ARE DENTURES UNCOMFORTABLE?

If you are feeling pain, make sure to contact our dental team and we will adjust the dentures to achieve a more comfortable fit.
CAN I EASILY EAT WITH DENTURES?
With proper support, our dentures are designed to restore full functionality. This may involve the need for implants. Dentures should not stop you from eating your favorite foods. That is one of the benefits of dentures: they restore the joy of eating without pain or gaps.
WHAT MAINTENANCE IS NEEDED FOR MY DENTURES?
You need to maintain proper dental hygiene by brushing twice daily and scheduling regular dental checkups. If you have removable dentures, you will need to clean them and put them in a solution overnight to keep them from drying out. To help your dentures last longer you should:
- Clean them and your gums regularly
- Rinse them off after eating food
- Bring your dentures to dental appointments
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
To start on your denture journey, you will first need to schedule a consultation with our office so the dentist can assess your oral health and current smile situation. After discussing your dental goals, they will create a treatment plan. If you decide to move forward with the plan, they will design your dentures.
If you need teeth extracted or decide to get implant-supported dentures, our dentist will take those steps before placing your dentures. Then the dentist will place your dentures and make any necessary adjustments for a smooth and comfortable fit.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DENTURES?
Many benefits come with dentures, some of the most important ones are improved:
- Aesthetics
- Oral Health
- Overall Health
- Confidence
DO DENTURES FEEL NATURAL?
Dentures may feel unfamiliar at first, but over time, they typically become comfortable as you get used to them. Our dentist will make adjustments as needed to ensure the best fit.
HOW LONG DO DENTURES LAST?
Dentures can last anywhere from 5–10 years, but their fit may change over time as your gums and jawbone naturally shift. Regular checkups can help ensure a proper fit and prevent discomfort.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I VISIT THE DENTIST WITH DENTURES?
Even if you have dentures, it’s important to have regular dental checkups at least twice a year. We will help monitor your oral health, check the fit of your dentures, and ensure that your gums are healthy. Over time, adjustments may be needed to keep your dentures fitting well.
