Are you missing one or more of your teeth? If so, partial dentures may offer the solution to restore your smile. We, at River Ranch Family Dentistry, are proud to offer quality restorations that will leave you smiling confidently in no time!

Types of Dentures

Depending on the extent of your tooth loss, you may need complete or partial dentures. Complete dentures replace a full set of teeth, while partial dentures replace one or several missing teeth. Immediate dentures are placed immediately after tooth loss occurs, but will likely need adjusting after several months due to changes that occur in the bone and gums. Conventional dentures are placed after full healing occurs and will require fewer adjustments down the road.

What Are Partial Dentures?

A partial denture is a removable dental appliance that works to restore the form and function of the jaw by replacing one or several missing teeth, along with restoring one’s appearance and oral functions. We match your replacement teeth to the surrounding ones, leaving you with a natural-looking smile!

What Are the Benefits?

When a tooth falls out, the surrounding teeth may begin to move into the gap, which can lead to many different problems. You may start to experience bone loss and may notice an altered facial appearance. Your partial denture will prevent your teeth from shifting and will preserve the underlying structures of your mouth. You will enjoy improved oral health, a more youthful look, and a confident smile!

Your restoration will allow you to speak with clarity and to eat the food you love without having to worry about chewing. The cost of dentures is affordable as compared to other types of restorations, leaving you with a lot to smile about!

Denture Care

Make sure to practice good oral hygiene and to clean your mouth carefully before inserting your denture. Keep your restoration clean by using denture cleaner daily to remove food particles and debris, and to avoid staining. Follow the care directions we will give you to keep your artificial teeth working and fitting well.

You will not need dental adhesives for well-fitting partial dentures, but some people use them for an added sense of security. With time, your denture may not fit as well and may not be as comfortable. Contact us for an appointment so that we can make any necessary denture repair, or any adjustments required.
