Full or Partial Upper and Lower Dentures
Mouth/Sports Gaurds
A denture is a removeable plate for missing teeth and their surrounding tissues.
Full dentures are used when all teeth have been removed or are missing, where as, partial dentures are used when there are natural teeth still remaining.
*Acrylic and cast metal framework available
Mouth guards can be used for a variety of reasons including for people that grind their teeth at night or who play sports. Guards can help prevent chipping, breakage and even tooth loss.
Same Day Relines
A reline may be needed to help with the fit of a denture. At times the bone structure and tissues inside the mouth may shrink, therefore, creating the need for a new impression to be taken. At this time new material will be added to the base of your existing denture to create a better, more comfortable fit. The appearance of your denture will not change.
*After having teeth extracted the bone structure that held your teeth in place will begin to change and round off. Therefore, relines are common post immediate dentures (dentures placed right after teeth are extracted).
Same Day Repairs
A denture that is in need of repair should be looked at and repaired right away. This will help prevent any further damage.
Types of repairs include:
-
fixing a crack
-
fixing a break
-
replacement of teeth
-
adding a tooth
-
adding a clasp
-
laser welding
Denture Cleaning
After time it will be necessary to have your dentures cleaned to remove any build up of plaque and stains. Having your dentures cleaned professionally can have them looking new again in a very short time. Cleaning and/or polishing is typically needed once or twice a year.
