The reason behind needing dentures isn’t always considered good news. Dentures are meant to replace an entire ridge of teeth with highly lifelike replacements, so needing one means that you’ve lost a significant amount of your healthy, natural teeth. There is good news, however, in the fact that today’s lifelike dental prostheses can be designed to closely mimic the healthy, natural structures of your teeth. Using advanced techniques and materials, we can custom-design a denture that not only replaces your lost teeth, but does so in a way that optimizes your bite’s function and restores your smile’s healthy, youthful appearance.
Today’s prostheses are more lifelike than ever
Some of the biggest advancements of today’s tooth replacement options involves the technology used to design them and the materials used to craft them. Your denture can be designed using highly precise measurements and molds of your teeth and dental ridges, allowing for the lifelike creation of your replacement teeth. Using materials such as porcelain, we can craft dentures that are virtually indistinguishable from your unique healthy teeth, making your denture extremely lifelike in appearance. Dental porcelain is also highly durable, and you can bite and chew a wide range of foods with confidence.
You can get a partial to preserve remaining teeth
Another significant advancement is the ability to create partial dentures that can rebuild your dental ridge without having to extract the healthy teeth that remain. Partial dentures are designed to span your dental ridge and replace the teeth you’ve lost while fitting comfortably around the teeth that still remain. Partial dentures can also be crafted from porcelain to make the replacement teeth blend in almost seamlessly with the healthy, natural teeth around them. By preserving your natural teeth, your partial denture can also help you improve the long-term state of your oral health after rebuilding your smile.
Your denture can even come with prosthetic roots
For patients who qualify, today’s dentures are often supported by a series of highly lifelike dental implant posts, which are designed to mimic the roots of the teeth you’ve lost. Dental implants are inserted into your jawbone and used to support a denture or other custom restoration. Because they mimic the form and function of your teeth roots, they can support your replacement teeth without the need for clasps or adhesives that traditional partial and full dentures rely on.
