What Are Dentures?
Dentures are a removable appliance designed to replace missing teeth and restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile confidently. Dentures can be made to replace all teeth (full dentures) or a few missing teeth (partial dentures). Modern dentures are more comfortable and natural-looking than ever before, offering a reliable and affordable solution for tooth replacement.
Types of Dentures We Offer
At Dr. Jayne’s dental office, we offer a variety of denture solutions to meet the unique needs of our patients. Depending on the condition of your teeth and your oral health goals, Dr. Jayne will help you determine the best option for you. Here are the types of dentures we provide:
1. Full Dentures
Full dentures are used when all teeth in the upper or lower jaw need to be replaced. These dentures sit on top of the gums and are held in place with an adhesive. Dr. Jayne designs full dentures that are comfortable and natural-looking, allowing you to eat and speak with confidence.
2. Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. Traditional partials use metal clasps that attach to the surrounding teeth for support. Dr. Jayne creates custom partials that fit comfortably and securely, allowing you to restore your smile without the need for implants or bridges.
3. No-Metal Partials
For a more aesthetically pleasing option, we offer no-metal partial dentures. These flexible dentures use cosmetic clasps to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, making them virtually undetectable. This is an excellent option for patients who want a more discreet solution.
4. Immediate Dentures
Immediate dentures are placed immediately after tooth extraction so that you don’t have to leave the office without teeth. These temporary dentures allow you to maintain the appearance of your smile while your gums heal before your permanent dentures are placed.
5. Implant-Supported Dentures
For patients seeking more stability, implant-supported dentures provide a secure solution. These dentures snap onto dental implants, which are surgically placed into the jawbone.[Dental Implants](/services/restorative-dentistry/dental-implants) help keep the dentures in place, giving you greater chewing power and preventing slipping or discomfort.
Denture Stabilization with Dental Implants
One common issue with traditional dentures is the lack of stability. Over time, the bone supporting your dentures can shrink due to the lack of stimulation from natural teeth, causing the dentures to become loose. Dr. Jayne offers denture stabilization using dental implants to address this problem.
Implant-supported dentures provide several advantages, including:
- Increased Stability: Implant-supported dentures snap securely onto dental implants, preventing movement while eating or speaking.
- Improved Comfort: Since the dentures are anchored to the implants, they fit more comfortably without the need for adhesives.
- Restored Chewing Power: Traditional dentures provide only a fraction of the natural chewing power. Implant-supported dentures allow you to eat a wider variety of foods with ease.
- Bone Preservation: Dental implants help preserve the jawbone by providing the necessary stimulation, preventing bone loss, and maintaining the structure of your face.
Why Choose Dental Implants to Stabilize Dentures?
When teeth are missing, the jawbone begins to shrink due to a lack of stimulation. This not only affects the fit of your dentures but can also lead to changes in your facial appearance, making you look older. Dental implants provide the necessary stimulation to preserve the bone, preventing further shrinkage and giving your face a more youthful appearance.
Implant-supported dentures provide a more secure fit, eliminating the need for adhesives and allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods without worry. Dr. Jayne can even retrofit your existing dentures to snap onto dental implants, giving you no-slip, no-adhesive dentures.
Denture Maintenance and Repairs
To ensure the longevity of your dentures, it’s important to care for them properly. Dr. Jayne offers in-office denture relines to maintain a comfortable fit as your mouth changes over time. If your dentures become damaged or worn, we provide denture repairs through our trusted lab to restore them to like-new condition.
