What Are Dentures

Dentures are removable replacements for some or all of your missing teeth, custom fitted to your mouth. Full dentures replace an entire arch of teeth, while partial dentures fill in gaps where some natural teeth remain. Both are designed to restore your ability to chew and speak comfortably while supporting the natural shape of your face.

Signs You May Need Dentures

  • One or more missing teeth affecting your bite or speech
  • Difficulty chewing certain foods comfortably
  • A current denture that no longer fits well or feels loose
  • Noticeable changes in facial appearance due to missing teeth
  • Your dentist has recommended dentures as part of your treatment plan

What Is Included

  • An exam and consultation to discuss your denture options
  • Impressions or scans to create a custom fit
  • Fitting of your denture with adjustments as needed
  • Guidance on caring for and cleaning your denture
  • Follow up visits to fine tune fit and comfort over time
