Dentures are essential for individuals who have lost multiple teeth due to age, injury, or dental disease, as they restore both function and appearance. Here at Dentistry With a Difference we offer custom affordable dentures to help maintain facial structure, improve chewing and speaking abilities, and boost confidence for those who are missing teeth. Dentures can also prevent remaining teeth from shifting and causing future problems in oral health and bone structure.

What are Custom Dentures?

Custom dentures are removable dental prosthetics used to replace lost upper or lower teeth. At Dentistry With a Difference, we create custom dentures to fit each patient’s mouth perfectly. Wearing custom dentures will enable you to talk more clearly, chew food more effectively, and smile more attractively. These restorations can endure many years if properly cared for.

Every one to two years or anytime you observe a change in the fit of your denture, you will need to have it relined at our dental office. Dr. Nordone or Dr. Oh will make some adjustments to make it snug and ensure it is comfortable to wear.

Types of Custom Dentures

There are several types of dentures to choose from based on your specific needs:

  • Full dentures – Also called complete dentures, full dentures can replace an entire missing tooth arch. They are made up of a gum-colored base and artificial teeth. They are removable and easy to clean.
  • Partial dentures – Made from the same material as full dentures, partial dentures can replace one or several missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They have unique hooks or clasps used to get support and stability from existing natural teeth.
  • Temporary dentures – These are used to temporarily replace your missing teeth while the permanent dentures are being crafted. Permanent dentures usually take one to two weeks to be created. Temporary dentures are worn to prevent your remaining natural teeth from moving into the spaces dedicated to the permanent dentures.
  • Implant-retained dentures – As the name implies, these dentures rest on dental implants and not directly on your gums. Like full or partial dentures, implant-retained dentures are removable, making cleaning and soaking them easier when not in use. Despite this, they are more stable compared to traditional dentures.
  • Implant-supported dentures – Similar to implant-retained dentures, this type of denture is supported by dental implants. However, it offers more strength and stability because it is non-removable.
