Dentures – also known as false teeth – are one of the most common and popular ways to replace missing teeth. Made to sit over the gums, traditional dentures are designed to be removable and are usually made of acrylic or cobalt chrome.

Dentures represent a cost-effective option for many patients looking to replace their missing teeth. They are extremely durable and long-lasting if well taken care of, and can help improve a smile with missing teeth as well as return function to a mouth.

Receiving dentures usually takes four visits to the practice, but first, we’ll start with a consultation. During this time, we’ll go over your oral health history as well as all the options open to you when it comes to replacement. Once we’ve decided to move forward with dentures we’ll take all the photographs. These will be used to make a wax model which we’ll then use to make sure the fit and comfort of your future denture are right for you.

Your personal dentures will be made off-site at a professional dental laboratory. Once ready, you’ll come back into the practice where we’ll once again check the bite, comfort, and fit of your dentures and go over how to take care of them properly.
