If you have lost multiple teeth, Dr. Pasquale Malpeso may recommend dentures to replace them and restore your smile. Dentures are often an effective solution for those looking to restore their smile and oral functionality. Our prosthodontist offers two main types of dentures: complete dentures and partial dentures.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are used when all teeth are missing in an upper or lower dental arch. If you have lost your teeth due to injury, decay or gum disease, a complete denture can restore your ability to eat and speak more effectively, and bring back the natural shape of your face. Our prosthodontist may recommend a denture adhesive to improve the stability and comfort of your complete dentures.
Partial Dentures
For those who still retain some of their natural teeth, partial dentures may be the recommended solution. These are ideal for filling the gaps in your smile and preventing other teeth from shifting. Partial dentures are typically constructed with a metal framework that connects to your natural teeth, creating a secure and comfortable fit.
Benefits of dentures include:
- Enhanced Smile and Appearance: Dentures are crafted to closely resemble natural teeth, significantly improving your smile and facial aesthetics.
- Improved Speech and Eating Abilities: Dentures help in restoring the ability to chew various foods and speak more clearly, which are often compromised when teeth are missing.
- Support Facial Structure: Dentures support the structure of the face, preventing the facial muscles from sagging and giving an older appearance.
Your denture is custom-made to fit the unique contours of your mouth, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit. Our team takes great care to ensure that your dentures not only fit well but also look natural. We understand the importance of how your smile affects your daily life and confidence, and we are dedicated to helping you achieve the best possible results.
