Sometimes it is necessary to move to a denture or replace a denture that you have. Our office can help you with that. We have expertise in doing dentures, and we’ve been doing dentures for many years. When you are losing your teeth and those teeth do need to be replaced, a denture is a great option for you. We can build that denture so that it looks natural and people won’t tell, be able to tell, that you’re wearing a denture. That’s the main thing. People don’t want to have the idea that they’re going to be known for wearing a denture, and creating the cosmetics in that denture and creating the right length of teeth and the look is important for patients.
The other thing with dentures is the new thing that we’re doing is retaining those dentures with implants. So when we look at doing dentures, sometimes it really makes sense to put a couple of implants in, and then those dentures are retained by those implants. They still come in and out, and you can keep them clean and you can treat them just like you would a normal denture, but you have better retention. So you’re eating things that are, that most denture wearers would have a little bit more difficulty eating, the tougher foods. So having implants in those sites where you can retain those dentures is important as well.
