Missing teeth can do more than make it difficult to eat and speak. The condition also affects many patients’ self-esteem. When you come to Ashland Dental Arts for denture services, our expert staff will help you find the right solution that fits your needs from a host of available tooth replacement options.
Dentures, or sets of false teeth, are both a convenient and affordable option for those missing extensive teeth. While traditionally they are removable and adhere to the gums with special fixatives, we offer treatments that may change the way you feel about dentures entirely!
Who’s a Candidate for Dentures?
Not everyone is a good candidate for dentures, even if you have suffered from lost or broken teeth. In order for a patient to get the most out of the treatment, they will need to have strong gums and uncompromised jawbone density. Dentures need a secure place to be affixed, and if the patient’s gums or jaw are compromised, dentures might actually do more harm than good.
In addition, patients may have additional teeth that require removal before further treatment can commence. This may mean additional waiting time as your jaw heals post-extraction. After an initial consultation, our team will better understand your needs, allowing us to customize a treatment plan to your lifestyle and budget.
Removable Dentures
Many patients already suffer from missing teeth, while others might face the possibility of multiple extractions. No matter the cause, removable dentures are an excellent choice that provides both comfort and durability while remaining a flexible and affordable part of your lifestyle.
Our team will help you determine if a full or partial set is necessary. Crafting high-quality dentures takes more than basic mouth measurements and dental impressions. We take into account your daily customs and habits to find a solution that makes you feel great about your smile every time you look in the mirror!
Implant-Retained Dentures
Dental implants are an effective permanent treatment for tooth loss. Instead of mounting a series of crowns to titanium roots, anchor points are situated in strategic points in the jaw. This lets our patients have the look of beautiful false teeth without the worry of them slipping at the most inopportune moments.
Ashland Dental Arts offers these systems:
- All-on-4® System
- Hybrid Dentures
- Implant-Retained Dentures
Not only do our patients get the benefits of dentures, but they also receive the increase in bone density that titanium implants provide.
