Explore Your Options for the Right Fit!
Each tooth in your mouth works perfectly together to create one complete masterpiece. If one tooth is missing, the masterpiece is no longer balanced. This imbalance may create embarrassment, low self esteem, discomfort, pain, and an increased risk of losing more teeth. A missing tooth can even cause your health to suffer due to impaired chewing.
Partials or dentures are for any adult missing teeth, not just older people, which is a common misconception. Due to advances in dentistry, we now have many options for you to choose from. You can go the traditional route with removable partials/dentures or you can choose a more permanent solution such as dental implants or implant supported partials/dentures.
Missing teeth may have serious consequences if left untreated.
Significant repercussions of missing teeth include nutritional changes, obesity, diabetes, coronary artery disease and even some forms of cancer!
Partials Are Often a Solution When Several Teeth Are Missing
Types of Partials/Dentures
Full Set
A full set denture(s) replaces an entire upper and/or lower set of teeth.
Partial Set
A partial set of dentures connects to your existing teeth and is removable. This is the best choice if a patient is missing several teeth.
Implant-Supported Denture
An implant-supported denture is used when the full set of teeth are missing but there is enough jaw bone to support implants. Implant-supported dentures are a great option for patients who want a longer-lasting, non-removable denture.
Removable Overdenture
A palateless snap-on denture must be snapped into 2-6 implants, depending on the size of your arch. These dentures are a particular favorite among our patients due to the higher comfort level.

You can always call our office to discuss dental creams or adhesives to determine which kind would work best for you. You do not, however, want to substitute adhesive for poorly-fitting dentures.
