Explore Your Denture Options
Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, dentures offer an effective solution to restore your smile and functionality. Here’s an overview of the most common types of dentures:
Removable Resin Partial Denture
A removable resin partial denture is an affordable and aesthetic option for patients missing one or more teeth. Made from an acrylic resin base that mimics natural gums, this denture replaces missing teeth while blending seamlessly with the rest of your smile. It is removable, which makes it easy to clean and maintain.
Complete Denture
Complete dentures, or full dentures, are used when all teeth in the upper or lower arch are missing. They restore both function and aesthetics, providing a natural-looking solution for patients who have lost all their teeth. Custom-made to fit snugly on your gums, these dentures help you smile, eat, and speak confidently.
Cast Partial Denture
A cast partial denture features a metal framework for added durability and stability. These dentures are ideal for patients who need to replace several missing teeth and want a longer-lasting, more stable solution compared to resin-based partials. The metal framework helps the denture fit more securely, making it a durable option.
Immediate Dentures and Denture Care
If you’ve had teeth extracted, immediate dentures can be a temporary solution while you heal. Learn more about how to care for your dentures and ensure they last for years to come.
Immediate Denture
Immediate dentures are placed immediately after teeth are extracted, allowing you to maintain your smile and function while your gums heal. This type of denture is a temporary solution, often replaced with a more permanent option once your gums have fully healed.
Removable vs. Fixed Dentures
While removable dentures offer convenience and ease of cleaning, some patients may prefer fixed solutions like dental implants. Removable dentures are cost-effective and non-invasive, but fixed options provide superior stability and function.
Caring for Your Dentures
Taking care of your dentures is essential for their longevity. Cleaning them daily, soaking them in water or a denture solution overnight, and visiting your dentist regularly for adjustments are all key to ensuring your dentures last.
Which Type of Denture Is Right for You?
- Removable Resin Partial Denture: A cost-effective solution for replacing a few teeth with a natural-looking appearance.
- Complete Denture: Ideal for those who are missing all teeth in one or both arches and want a full-arch solution.
- Cast Partial Denture: A more durable and stable option for patients who need a partial denture but want the added support of a metal framework.
- Immediate Denture: A great temporary solution while healing after extractions, with the option for a more permanent denture later.
Dentures vs. Dental Implants: Which is Best?
While dentures offer an affordable solution for missing teeth, dental implants provide a more permanent option. Discover the key differences and which option may be best for your oral health needs.
Dental Implants vs. Dentures
If you’re considering dentures but want to explore a more permanent solution, dental implants may be the answer. Implants provide superior stability and prevent bone loss, but they require surgery and are a larger investment.
Fixed Dentures for Better Stability
Fixed dentures, supported by implants, offer the most secure fit. They look and function like natural teeth but come at a higher cost. Fixed dentures can improve speech and chewing efficiency compared to removable options.
What You Need to Know About Denture Costs
Dentures are a cost-effective way to restore your smile, but it’s important to understand the different factors that impact the overall cost, including materials, type, and necessary adjustments over time.
Cost of Dentures
The cost of dentures varies depending on the type (resin, cast, complete, or immediate) and the materials used. Dentures are generally more affordable than implants but require periodic adjustments or replacements over time.
Removable Dentures vs. Fixed Dentures
Removable dentures are convenient and non-invasive, while fixed dentures offer greater stability. The best option depends on your budget, lifestyle, and oral health.
