Dentures and Partial Dentures

Types of Dentures - Complete and Partial Prosthetics

There are several different denture options for patients who want to make this transition. Each device has its benefits, making it essential to work with a reliable dental team to find your perfect device. The most common denture options include:

• Complete Conventional

  Complete conventional dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace all missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They’re secured using adhesive to prevent slipping throughout the day. This device is custom-made to fit comfortably, restore oral function, and improve your smile.

• Implant-Supported Complete

  In situations where patients have enough jawbone to support implants, your dentist may recommend implant-supported dentures. These devices are more stable than conventional prosthetics, making them a more comfortable and secure option.

• Immediate

  This prosthetic is designed to be worn while you wait for your custom device to be designed. While they are not custom-fit to your mouth, this device ensures dental patients don’t have to go without teeth. This device also protects your gums as you recover from potential tooth extraction.

• Partial

  Partial dentures are a perfect choice for dental patients who are only missing a few teeth. This prosthetic fits similarly to a bridge, hooking onto the natural teeth on either side of the gap. In addition to restoring your oral function, these devices ensure your teeth don’t shift into improper places.
