Dentures are custom-made dental appliances (sometimes called prosthetics) designed to replace all of your missing teeth at one time. They are carefully crafted to fit comfortably in your mouth, creating a secure fit that allows you to chew and speak more easily. Dentures come in both full and partial designs, depending on how many healthy teeth you still have.
If you're missing various teeth throughout your mouth, partial dentures are an excellent option. Partials consist of replacement teeth attached to a metal or pink acrylic base. They are secured in your mouth by small clasps or precision attachments, fitting in place between your remaining natural teeth.
For patients missing all of their teeth in the upper, lower, or both jaws, traditional dentures offer a straightforward smile solution. They feature a full set of artificial teeth set into an acrylic base, shaded to resemble your gum tissues. The entire prosthesis restores all of the upper or lower teeth at one time, resting directly on top of your gums.
When you trust Impact Dentistry for dentures in Arlington or Mansfield, you can expect compassionate care from Dr. Daniel Lim and our team. The process of getting dentures typically involves several steps to ensure a comfortable fit and a natural-looking smile:
Dr. Lim will conduct a thorough examination of your oral health, including X-rays and/or 3D digital impressions. This step allows us to assess the condition of oral anatomy and determine the best type of dentures for your unique needs.
Once we have gathered all the necessary information, our skilled dental technicians will custom design your dentures to our specifications. We take great care to ensure that the size, shape, and color of the prosthesis meet your aesthetic goals and complement your facial characteristics.
When your dentures are ready, we will schedule a try-in appointment. Dr. Lim will ensure that your new dentures fit comfortably and make any necessary adjustments.
Proper care and maintenance of your dentures are vital for their longevity and your oral health. We will provide you with detailed instructions on cleaning and storing your dentures, as well as scheduling regular check-ups to ensure they continue to fit well and function properly.
Dentures may take some getting used to, but with practice, you will adjust to eating and speaking comfortably.
With proper care, dentures can last anywhere from 5 to 10 years or even longer. Over time, your mouth's shape may change, and dentures might require adjustments, relines, or replacements to ensure an optimal fit.
Please do not sleep in your denture or partial. This can lead to oral infections as well as accelerated bone changes in your jaw(s).
