Partial dentures can be used in minor cases where only a couple of teeth are missing as well as more extensive cases where there are multiple gaps throughout the mouth. The prosthetic is held in place with a metal clasp that is attached to the natural teeth.
A full denture replaces a whole row of teeth. If you have lost most of your teeth and don’t have enough worth salvaging, the remaining teeth can be extracted to make room for a prosthetic. Full dentures can be held in place with natural suction, but specialized adhesives are available if you feel you need them.
We can anchor your dentures to dental implants that have been inserted directly into your jawbone. There will be no need to rely on natural suction or separate metal clasps; the prosthetic will have “roots” to keep it stable at all times. Most implant dentures are designed so that they’re permanently anchored in place, but they can be made to be removable if you choose.
