Complete Dentures

Complete dentures are removable dental prosthetics designed to replace all missing teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, or both. Crafted from durable materials like acrylic resin or porcelain, complete dentures aim to restore both the aesthetic appearance and functional capabilities of natural teeth. Custom-made to fit the unique contours of the patient’s mouth, these prosthetics are supported by the underlying oral tissues, relying on suction and muscle control for stability. While modern advancements have introduced implant-supported alternatives, complete dentures remain a viable option for individuals seeking a non-invasive and cost-effective solution to total tooth loss.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth when a patient retains some of their natural teeth. Crafted from a combination of metal and acrylic materials, partial dentures consist of artificial teeth attached to a gum-colored base. These appliances are custom-made to fit snugly in the patient’s mouth and are held in place by clasps or precision attachments that anchor to existing natural teeth. Partial dentures not only restore a person’s ability to chew and speak effectively but also help maintain proper alignment of the remaining natural teeth.

Overdentures

Discover the comfort and stability of overdentures, a modern solution for restoring your smile and confidence. Overdentures are removable dental prosthetics that provide a secure fit by attaching to existing natural teeth or dental implants. This innovative approach combines the benefits of traditional dentures with the added support of dental implants, offering a more stable and natural feel. Overdentures are custom-designed to fit snugly over the remaining natural teeth or dental implants, creating a secure and comfortable foundation. This not only improves the overall fit and function of the denture but also enhances your ability to chew and speak with ease. The result is a more confident and natural-looking smile.
