We will work closely with you and our dental lab to deliver the results you want with as little inconvenience as possible.
What Makes Modern Dentures Different?
Have you noticed that your older dentures don’t fit comfortably any more? This has probably caused you a lot of discomfort as well as embarrassment when the dentures slip at the most inconvenient times.
Older dentures made many years ago were fabricated using a very stiff, inflexible material. Your dentures probably fit fine at the time they were made because they were created to fit the shape of your jaw at that time. As you age, the shape and density of your jaw changes, which is why you may experience the sensation that you’re now wearing someone else’s dentures.
Advances in dental materials and technology allow us to create dentures that are much softer and create a snug fit that closely conforms to the shape of your gums and jaw. This results in significantly less irritation and problems with slipping.
Implant-Retained Dentures
If you’re looking for a solution that will make your dentures virtually slip-proof, we can use dental implants that actually enable us to attach the denture to your jaw. Since the implant actually becomes part of your jawbone, it holds the denture firmly in place. We can use dental implants to retain partial or full dentures.
