In an ideal world, our teeth would last an entire lifetime without failing. But that isn’t always the case for everyone. Everyday stress, tooth decay, or accidents can all cause your teeth to fail.
For over 100 years, dentures have been the go-to solution for replacing missing teeth. Patients had to put up with ill-fitting dentures, often fearing they would be embarrassed if they unexpectedly loosened.
At The Dental Roots, we use modern technology to deliver effective denture treatments for missing teeth. We offer a variety of denture options created with top-of-the-line materials to perfectly fit your mouth and restore your ability to chew, speak, and live your life.
Modern dentures have come a long way from treatments available even just a few years ago. When we recommend dentures, we’re recommending an attractive, non-invasive, long-lasting, and custom solution.
Custom-made Dentures @ The Dental Roots
We custom-make dentures in our laboratory, based on impressions and measurements taken of your mouth. This approach guarantees you a set of dentures that fit comfortably, give you a proper bite, and look like your natural teeth did.
Dentures are more comfortable and natural looking than ever before and, unless you tell someone that you’re wearing dentures, they probably won’t even know. Once made and fitted, these custom-made replacements are easily put in and taken out of your mouth by you, giving you the flexibility to wear them at times that suit you.
During your consultation, we will discuss with you all of the aspects that characterize teeth replacement systems, such as:
- Aesthetics
- Function
- Comfort
- Longevity
Replacing missing teeth is important. Your oral health and your confidence in your smile are just two of the reasons you should replace missing teeth. Dentures, dental implants, and dental bridges maintain the alignment of your bite and prevent other teeth from tilting and shifting into the missing tooth gap. And the way you feel about your smile can influence many aspects of your life, including your social and professional interactions. You deserve to feel great about your smile and to have long-lasting, effective dentistry options.
Types of Dentures
Full Dentures
Full dentures are used when no healthy teeth remain in either your upper or lower jaw. In some cases, we may remove a damaged or decayed tooth to make room for a full denture. Dentures will provide support to the lips and face so you can eat, drink, and smile with confidence.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are a great option when you still have some healthy natural teeth in either your upper or lower jaw. A partial denture uses healthy teeth as attachment points for support and stability.
Implant-supported Dentures
Our most highly recommended denture solution! While traditional dentures are a good choice for some, implant-supported dentures are the clear winner when it comes to health, comfort, and long-term happiness.
With this type of denture, as few as 2-4 dental implants are first placed in your mouth. From there, your denture will be permanently secured to your implants.
The biggest advantages of using implants for your dentures include:
- Prevents bone loss in the jaw and preserves your facial structure
- Offers more stability and prevents slipping and sliding
- Easier to maintain and live with day-to-day
Best rated dentures
Looking after the best-rated dentures is straightforward. The key things to do are to always handle them with care, to clean them daily, and to leave them to soak when not in use. They can be worn all day and night if required, however, taking them out at night is advisable.
