Dentures

A denture or partial denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth. Dentures are usually fabricated from acrylic materials but may occasionally incorporate the use of other materials. There are also several types of dentures that can be fabricated to fit over implant fixtures. (See Implant Dentistry). A custom-made, properly fit denture or partial denture can be completely natural-looking, and should be comfortable for chewing, as well as allow for normal speech.

A denture is never an equal replacement for natural teeth. However, by using the latest technology and employing skilled dental laboratory professionals, dentures or partial dentures can strike the appropriate balance between function and aesthetics.

Dentures typically require a series of appointments depending on the patient's needs and type of dentures being fabricated.
