Full Dentures

Full dentures are a traditional form of dentures designed to replace all of a person’s teeth. Complete dentures are removable and rest on the gums. Full dentures are usually placed around 8 to 12 weeks after the patient’s teeth have been extracted.

Partial Dentures

When individuals can retain some of their natural teeth, partial dentures are an excellent option for replacing those missing or extracted. Partial dentures consist of a pink base that is affixed to a metallic piece. Together, both of these pieces assist in holding the denture in the mouth. Partial dentures are both convenient and removable, allowing you to remove them whenever you want. More significantly, partial dentures assist in the prevention of your remaining natural teeth from shifting into the gaps created by the missing teeth.

Implanted Dentures

Implant-supported dentures utilize dental implants for stability. And provide some advantages due to their stability. They will not slide around or irritate the gums. The implant provides an ideal foundation onto which the denture is attached. It will stay securely in place, look great, and be long-lasting.
