Types of Dentures Available at Sunrise Dental
Our practice offers several denture options to meet diverse patient needs. Traditional full dentures provide complete tooth replacement for patients missing all their teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. These custom-fitted appliances rest securely on the gums and create a natural-looking smile while supporting proper oral function.
For patients missing only some teeth, partial dentures offer an excellent solution. These removable appliances attach to your remaining natural teeth, filling gaps while maintaining proper spacing and alignment. Our partial dentures are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, creating a unified, attractive smile.
We also provide implant-supported dentures, which combine the benefits of traditional dentures with the stability of dental implants. This innovative solution anchors your denture securely to dental implants, eliminating concerns about slipping or shifting while providing enhanced chewing ability and confidence.
The Custom Denture Process
Creating your perfect dentures begins with a comprehensive consultation to understand your needs and goals. We carefully evaluate your oral health, jaw alignment, and facial structure to determine the most appropriate denture solution. Using advanced imaging technology, we can visualize how different denture designs will work with your unique oral anatomy.
The fabrication process involves taking precise impressions of your mouth to ensure optimal fit and comfort. We work closely with expert dental laboratories that use high-quality materials to craft your custom dentures. Multiple fitting appointments allow us to make necessary adjustments, ensuring your dentures feel comfortable and natural.
For patients transitioning to dentures, we provide immediate dentures that can be placed the same day as any remaining teeth are removed. This allows you to maintain your appearance and function while your final dentures are being crafted and your tissues heal.
Living with Dentures
Adapting to new dentures takes time, and our team provides comprehensive support throughout this adjustment period. We offer detailed guidance on speaking, eating, and caring for your dentures, helping you quickly adjust to your new smile. Regular follow-up appointments allow us to make any necessary adjustments and ensure your continued comfort.
Proper denture care is essential for maintaining their appearance and function. We provide thorough instructions on daily cleaning, proper storage, and maintenance routines that help extend the life of your dentures. Regular dental check-ups allow us to evaluate the fit of your dentures and assess the health of your supporting tissues.
