Partial & Full Dentures
Types of Dentures
- Full Dentures: Are custom-made for your mouth after all your teeth have been removed and the tissues have healed. They cover the entire upper or lower jaw in a single arch. They can be removable or be secured to your jaw by dental implants.
- Partial Dentures: This is a great option when you have teeth that can be saved – because they preserve your jawbone and provide stability and support for the denture. The denture will fit around your natural teeth. You may also want to consider implants, which serve the same function See our Implants page.
Personalization Options
With our dentures, you’ll be able to choose from a range of tooth shapes, colors and translucencies. With some dentures you can also select:
- Gum shades – including custom options.
- Gum texture – ridges, carved bumps and vein-like details provide a natural gum line appearance.
- Ridging – details on the upper denture resemble the feel of the roof of your mouth. These help the tongue when speaking as well as the rotation of food around your palate when you eat.
Everyday Usage
We want your investment in dentures to serve you well. In the beginning, your dentist may want to see you often to make sure the dentures fit comfortably and don’t have irregular wear.
Dentures typically last less than 10 years. During that time you’ll likely need repairs or adjustments. Common items include:
- Reline – resurfacing of the side that’s in contact with the soft tissues of your mouth to maintain a secure fit.
- Rebase – the pink acrylic base that holds your teeth is completely replaced.
- Sore spot adjustment – your dentist can adjust the denture so that it doesn’t rub against your gums or soft tissues.
We can do these fine-tunings, minor adjustments and repairs in our office labs.
Replacement
You should plan to replace your denture every 5-7 years. As you age, your mouth and jaws change shape – bones and gums naturally shrink and recede. This affects the denture’s fit – which can cause infections or sores. Your Sage Dental dentist will advise you when you need a replacement to avoid these complications.
Comfort
Advances in dentistry have made many improvements in dentures. They are now much more natural looking and comfortable than they used to be, but they still may feel strange at first.
