Dentures and Partials at Masci & HaleDentures are used to replace the teeth of an individual with none remaining. In the case of several missing teeth, partials may replace them. Dentures are a set of artificial teeth that are fused together to create a natural looking smile. A set of dentures can be removed from the patient’s mouth. Uses of DenturesDentures serve many oral functions:
Benefits to Wearing DenturesDentures help to restore the patient’s appearance after a traumatic injury or serious illness during which several teeth were lost. Dentures are made to fit comfortably in the mouth for easy conversation and socializing. Patients with dentures may eat normally, though some harder foods are not recommended. Dentures are to be removed at night. This allows the patient to maintain healthy gums by letting saliva wash over them each evening. It also allows the patient to keep dentures clean easily. There are many denture related products on the market today, so patients can easily find the solutions and grip that work best for their lifestyles. Denture Procedures at Masci & HalePatients looking to be fitted with dentures must first come for an in-office consultation. Once dentures or partials have been determined as the best course of treatment, our dentists will make an impression of your gums to ensure a proper fit. The artificial teeth are carefully chosen to match the shape and coloring of your natural teeth. In some cases, the dentures or partials may be anchored in the patient’s mouth, allowing for increased stability. It is crucial that gums be allowed to heal before placing dentures. Any patient who has experienced traumatic tooth loss can begin the fitting process, but it will be several months before dentures can be worn regularly. To schedule a consultation for partials or dentures, call our office today.
