Who is a Good Candidate for Dentures?

Although potentially anyone who has lost multiple or all of their teeth can benefit from dentures, that doesn’t mean it’s the best option for everyone’s unique circumstances. Before proceeding, you must consult with one of our dentists to ensure you’re a good candidate.

First, we’ll check your current condition to ensure you have sufficiently healthy gum tissues to support your new teeth. If you’re getting implant dentures, we’ll also verify that your jawbone is dense enough to support your restoration.

Types of Dentures

Once we’ve examined your mouth, we can suggest an appropriate prosthetic to meet your unique needs. There are several types of dentures to choose from, such as:

Full Dentures

These are the tried-and-true way to replace missing teeth because they return a great deal of your chewing power, allow you to enunciate more clearly, and improve your looks to boost your confidence. They consist of an acrylic, gum-colored base containing an entire arch of porcelain pontics (artificial teeth) customized to match the ones that were lost. These appliances are designed to create a firm suction bond with your connective tissues over the bony ridges in your mouth to remain in place.

Partial Dentures

These prosthetics are made to replace multiple missing teeth sporadically throughout your mouth rather than a complete row. They usually also have an acrylic gum-colored base containing ceramic teeth made to match the shade, shape, and size of your natural ones. Typically, they contain metallic clips that anchor them to healthy teeth in your mouth.

Implant Dentures

This is the only method that combines dental implants with dentures for a more permanent solution. For this treatment, we will surgically place anywhere from four to eight implants in your jawbone. Once you’ve recovered, we’ll provide specially created dentures that connect to the titanium rods and aren’t intended to be removed.

The Benefits of Dentures
