Full Dentures
If all of your upper or lower teeth need to be removed, then a full denture will be crafted for you. After your gums are completely healed, the denture will be made so that the fit is comfortable and snug against the contour of your jaw. These are not the removable dentures of your grandma's day. Some new denture designs even come with warranties.
Partial Dentures
If some of your teeth are still healthy, then a partial denture might be a good solution. Removable partial dentures can be attached to your existing teeth. There are also implant supported options available for partial dentures. You may have a full denture on one palate and a partial denture on the other. The different possibilities are as varied as our patients!
How much do dentures cost?
Removable dentures are surprisingly affordable. Usually there's no need for surgery other than tooth extraction. Because there are so many options, a set price can't be determined until a plan is made based on each patient's unique situation. Implant supported dentures are more costly because of the implant surgery, but many patients feel the benefits of implants are worth the added cost and additional healing time.
After your denture consultation we'll be able to give you a cost so you'll know what to expect before your dentures are created. Our team will help you determine what share of the expense will be covered by your insurance. We can also introduce you to financing plans that will help ensure that the cost of your dentures is manageable.
How do I take care of my dentures?
Dentures need daily care to keep them in good shape and to prevent bacteria from turning into plaque and tartar. You'll want to brush your dentures daily and to rinse them after eating. Removable dentures should be taken out at night for cleaning and soaking. This also allows your gums to rest. Care should be taken when removing dentures so that they don't get dropped. Removing them over a soft towel or a sink full of water can prevent accidental breakage. Our team offers denture services to correct any problems that may occur over time with comfort or fit.
