Complete Dentures
Complete dentures provide an economical way to replace all of your teeth. They are a great option for those who have little or no remaining natural teeth, as complete dentures can be made to look and function just like your own teeth. Read on to learn more about complete dentures and why you should choose Choice Dental for all your denture needs!
What are Complete Dentures?
Complete dentures, also known as full dentures, are prosthetic appliances used to replace a full set of missing teeth. They consist of a pink, plastic base that fits over the gums and is supported by the jawbone and facial muscles. The base holds false teeth which have been custom-made out of a resin material that mimics the appearance of natural teeth. At Choice Dental, our denture services are handled by our experienced denture prosthetist Yuri Park.
Getting Fitted for Dentures
Getting fitted for complete dentures is a multi-step process that begins with an initial consultation with your denture prosthetist. During this appointment, we will determine whether complete dentures are the right option for you.
Once it has been determined that full dentures are the best course of action, impressions of your mouth may be taken in order to create a customized set of dentures. Following this, a wax mold will be used to simulate the shape and size of the new dentures so that you can try them on and check for fit or make any necessary adjustments. The molds will then be used to manufacture a custom set of dentures.
Once the dentures have been created, they will be ready to be fitted in office. During this appointment, we will evaluate how the dentures fit and make any necessary adjustments so that they fit comfortably and securely within your mouth.
Dentures should be comfortable and secure; however, they may require some adjustment during the first few weeks of wear in order for them to fit properly and securely. It is important to take good care of your dentures so that they stay in proper condition and last as long as possible – this includes cleaning them daily with a special brush and soaking them in solutions that are approved for use with dentures.
