Many options for tooth replacement are available today, and we’ll discuss these, along with your goals and lifestyle needs, to find the solution that is right for you. For many people, dentures are the most appropriate solution. Dentures are used when you are missing all or most of your teeth, and partials are used to “fill in the gaps” when you have multiple missing teeth.

Today’s dentures look much more natural and lifelike than dentures in the past. Your new teeth will be created with care to complement your facial features and your skin tone. If you are getting partials, the new teeth will be carefully matched to your existing teeth so that your dentistry blends well for an even, attractive smile.

One of the concerns that many patients have about dentures is whether or not they will be secure. We understand this. Who wants their dentures to slip and slide at precisely the wrong moment?

We can actually place a few dental implants in a strategic location that can hold your dentures securely in place. Once your dentures are locked into your implants, you won’t have to worry about unfortunate slips. You’ll also feel more confident about biting into your favorite foods!

Implant dentures represent the best of both worlds. You get the security and health benefits of implants without the cost of replacing each tooth with an individual implant.
