Who is a Good Candidate for Dentures?
While dental bridges and implants are a great option for patients who are missing one tooth, dentures are ideal for patients who are struggling with more significant tooth loss. So, if you are missing several teeth in a row, you’re missing an entire arch, or you don’t have any of your natural teeth left, then there’s a good chance that you’re a candidate for dentures! To find out for certain, schedule a consultation with our dedicated dentist, Dr. Donohue.
Types of Dentures
At our Worcester dental office, we proudly offer partial, full, and implant dentures. Below, you’ll find a brief overview of each. At your appointment, we will share our recommendations after learning all about your dental history, needs, and goals.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are used when a patient has some, but not all of their natural teeth. In this case, prosthetic teeth are mounted on a gum-colored base. Then, the restoration is kept in place with a discreet, gum-colored base. Since only the high-quality materials are used and the entire denture is custom-made, it looks and feels just like the real thing!
Full Dentures
Full dentures, on the other hand, are ideal for patients who are missing an entire arch of teeth. Unlike partials, these restorations are held in place with denture adhesive, natural suction, or a mixture of the two. The size, shape, and shade of each replacement tooth will be crafted with your specific face shape and aesthetic goals in mind as well, so it won’t draw any unwanted attention to your smile either.
Implant Dentures
Implant dentures are also available to our patients in Worcester who are struggling with tooth loss. In this case, the restoration is secured in place with strategically placed dental implants. Although it requires a higher upfront investment, there are several benefits of this option. For example, dental implants can last for 30 years or more with proper care!
The Benefits of Dentures
Dentures continue to be so popular because:
- They are custom-made for each patient
- They can last for a decade or more with proper care
- They help patients speak clearly
- They restore bite strength
- They are cost-effective
