Change your smile and life with our denture options
In a world where image holds the power to brighter lives, the importance of a beautiful smile can’t be overstated. So, if you have missing teeth, dentures present a worthwhile option to reclaim a winning smile. Dentures are dental prosthetics fabricated to replace missing teeth and are secured by the soft and hard tissues in the mouth.
Dentures come in many sizes and shapes to meet numerous needs. These are the denture types you can enjoy in our office.
- Complete dentures: Our dental team uses full dentures to restore your smile if you have lost all teeth in an arch. Complete dentures consist of life-like artificial teeth secured on a gum-colored base. Complete dentures are secured in place with suction or dental adhesives, although you can opt for implant dentures for added stability. Our full dentures are expertly made to provide optimum function, comfort, and aesthetics.
- Partial dentures: You don’t need a complete set of dentures when you have lost one or more teeth in a row. A partial denture rests on the space without teeth and is anchored with metalwork attached to the surrounding teeth. We offer removable partial dentures that give you the freedom to take them out for easier cleaning.
Frequently Asked Questions about Dentures and Partials
What denture option is right for me?
That depends on your oral health needs. Full dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth. Partial dentures fill gaps when some natural teeth remain. Implant-supported dentures provide extra stability and a more secure fit. Your dentist will evaluate your oral health and recommend the option that fits your needs, lifestyle, and budget.
Do dentures look natural?
Yes. Modern dentures look incredibly realistic. They are created from premium materials that mimic the appearance of your natural dentition. Once placed, your smile looks naturally refreshed, never unnatural. Modern partials and dentures are so natural-looking that they appeal to patients of all ages.
Will dentures change how I speak?
You may notice a slight difference at first, and this is completely normal. Your tongue and muscles need time to adjust to the new appliance. Some words may feel awkward during the first few days. However, many patients restore their natural speech after several days. Reading aloud and practicing speaking difficult words help you transition much more quickly.
Can I sleep while wearing my dentures?
You can, but we don’t recommend it. Remove your dentures when going to bed. This gives your gums and jaw tissues a chance to rest. It also reduces the risk of infection due to poor saliva circulation during sleep. When your dentures are out of your mouth, soak them in water or denture solution to help maintain their shape.
How long do dentures last?
Dentures are durable but not permanent. Most last 5-10 years with proper care. Over time, natural changes in the jawbone and gums may affect the fit and teeth may wear down due to function. Periodic adjustments help keep them comfortable and functional.
What is the best way to maintain dentures?
Denture maintenance helps keep your restoration healthy and strong. Here’s how to maintain your dentures:
- Rinse your dentures with cold or lukewarm water after meals.
- Clean your dentures daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive detergent.
- Avoid dropping your dentures to avoid breakage.
- Clean your gums and remaining teeth to maintain good oral health.
- Stay up to date with regular dental visits.
What should I do if my denture breaks?
Contact your dentist immediately. In the meantime, avoid trying to repair the denture with glue or household products. Improper repairs can lead to permanent damage. A professional repair by your dentist will help restore your denture’s fit and stability.
How much do dentures cost in Littleton, CO?
The exact cost varies depending on the type of denture and the materials used. Additional procedures, such as extractions or periodontal care, also affect treatment cost. Given the many variables, we’ll provide a cost breakdown during the consultation.
Does insurance cover the cost of dentures?
Many dental insurance plans cover part of the cost of dentures. However, coverage varies depending on the plan, deductibles, and annual maximums. Our team will help review your coverage and explain your benefits. We’ll also let you know of any out-of-pocket costs to avoid surprises down the line.
