What Are Dentures? Understanding Your Options

Full Dentures and Partial Dentures Explained

Dentures are removable appliances used to replace missing teeth and restore function to your mouth. At Shore Lake Dental, we offer two types of dentures:

Full Dentures: Ideal for patients who are missing all of their teeth in the upper, lower, or both arches. These dentures rest directly on the gums and provide a full set of replacement teeth, restoring both appearance and function.
Partial Dentures: Designed for patients who are missing several teeth but still have some natural teeth remaining. Partial dentures attach to your existing teeth with metal clasps or precision attachments, filling the gaps left by missing teeth.

Both full and partial dentures are custom-made to ensure a comfortable, secure fit, allowing you to smile and speak with confidence.

Restore Function, Aesthetics, and Confidence

The Benefits of Dentures

Choosing dentures offers several benefits that go beyond just replacing missing teeth. Some of the key advantages include:

Improved Chewing and Speech: Dentures allow you to eat a wider variety of foods and improve your speech clarity, enhancing your quality of life.

Enhanced Appearance: Custom dentures are designed to look natural and restore the shape of your face, giving you a more youthful appearance.

Affordable Solution: Compared to other restorative options like dental implants or bridges, dentures are a cost-effective way to replace missing teeth.

Preventing Further Issues: Dentures help prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place, which can occur when gaps are left unfilled.

Caring for Your Dentures

To keep your dentures in great shape and ensure their longevity, proper care is essential. Some tips for maintaining your dentures include:

Cleaning Daily: Brush your dentures daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and denture cleaner to remove food particles and plaque.
Handle with Care: Dentures can be delicate, so it’s important to handle them carefully to avoid damage. When cleaning, do so over a sink filled with water or a soft surface to prevent them from breaking if dropped.
Regular Dental Checkups: Even with dentures, regular dental checkups are important. We will check the condition of your dentures and ensure your gums remain healthy.
Proper denture care not only ensures their longevity but also helps maintain your oral health and hygiene.
