Dentures are removable restorative dental appliances used to replace missing teeth
Dentures are made to boost the appearance your smile and improve function.
There are a two main types of dentures near you- partial and complete. Partial dentures are recommended when you still have a fair amount of your natural teeth, partial dentures fill the spaces caused by missing teeth and prevent misalignment due to shifting teeth. Complete dentures are recommended when all of your teeth are missing.
Complete dentures can either be “immediate” or “conventional”. Immediate dentures are manufactured prior to your tooth extractions and placed in your mouth immediately after your teeth are removed, preventing you from having to go without teeth while healing. Once your tissue has healed, adjustments and relines will have to be made. Conventional dentures are manufactured after teeth have been extracted and your gum tissue has healed, usually taking about 4 to 6 weeks.
