Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace multiple missing teeth, restoring the health, function, and appearance of your smile. Whether you need to replace several teeth or an entire dental arch, our dentists may recommend full or partial dentures as an effective solution. Dentures offer numerous benefits, including:
- Restoring your smile’s natural appearance
- Enhancing your ability to chew, speak, and digest food comfortably
- Supporting facial tissues to maintain a youthful and balanced appearance
Difference Between Full and Partial Dentures
Full Dentures
Full, or complete, dentures are used to replace all the teeth in a dental arch and can be customized for the upper, lower, or both arches. These dentures are carefully crafted to provide a comfortable and natural fit. To enhance stability, our dentists may recommend using a denture adhesive.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are ideal for patients who have lost multiple teeth but still have healthy remaining natural teeth. These dentures include a lightweight framework or clasps that attach securely to your natural teeth, ensuring a stable and secure fit while filling in the gaps in your smile.
