At our family dentistry in Tucson, we offer dentures as a popular treatment option for patients who have missing teeth. These prosthetic devices are custom-made and removable, providing a reliable solution for replacing one, many, or all of the patient's missing teeth.
How are full dentures or partial dentures fitted?
Having dentures made for your smile begins with a consultation with our dentist, who will examine your mouth and determine whether they are the best tooth-replacement option for your smile.
Should dentures be deemed an option and you'd like to create one or more of these prosthetics, an impression of your mouth will be taken to create a mold. Laboratory professionals will create your denture(s), and once they are complete, we'll test their look and fit to determine if any adjustments are necessary. Once we've ensured that they look and feel great, we will provide instructions on caring for dentures, including how to clean them and when to remove them.
What are the advantages of dentures?
Dentures offer numerous advantages, including enhancing facial aesthetics, restoring the ability to speak and chew, and boosting one's confidence in smiling, speaking, and laughing. Additionally, dentures help slow down the rate of bone loss in the jaw.
Who is a good candidate for full and partial dentures?
People who have lost their teeth due to various factors such as decay, aging, disease, or injury are good candidates for dentures.
