Who Is a Good Candidate for Dentures?

Dentures are a viable solution for many people. They might be right for you whether you have lost a few teeth, several teeth, or even all of your teeth. During your consultation, we will examine your mouth, learn about your oral health, and ask about your goals for treatment before we determine if you are a good candidate for dentures. If they are not currently right for you, you might become eligible for them after some preliminary treatments, or we may suggest an alternative form of tooth replacement.

Types of Dentures

There are a few different types of dentures. During your consultation, we will recommend the one that is best for you based on the extent of your tooth loss, the health of your jawbone, and other factors. We might determine that you should receive partial dentures, full dentures, or implant dentures.

Partial Dentures

As their name suggests, partial dentures do not replace a full row of lost teeth. Rather, they fit in around the remaining natural teeth. Small metal or acrylic clips help them to stay in place. They are a good fit for patients whose remaining teeth are still healthy and strong.

Full Dentures

A full denture replaces either all of the upper or lower teeth. Natural suction or a bit of adhesive helps full dentures to stay in place during eating and speaking. We carefully customize these prosthetics so they fit well and are as comfortable as possible.

Implant Dentures

Instead of relying on clips, adhesive, or suction to remain in place, implant dentures are secured in the mouth via prosthetic tooth roots, which get surgically placed into the jawbone. They offer outstanding stability, longevity, and bone health benefits. Due to their many advantages, we often recommend them as the ideal solution for patients who qualify for them.

The Benefits of Dentures

  • Improved oral function. Dentures can increase your bite force and make it easier to eat a wide variety of tasty and nutritious foods.
  • Beautiful appearance. Dentures are customized to complement each patient’s unique facial features. They can look very natural! Plus, they can prevent your cheeks from taking on a hollow appearance.
  • Cost-effective. Dentures are one of the most budget-friendly ways to replace lost teeth.
