At Evolve Dentistry, we are dedicated to helping our patients restore their smiles after experiencing tooth loss. Our team is proud to offer high-quality removable dentures tailored to meet the specific needs of each patient. Whether you’ve lost some or all of your teeth, our custom-crafted dentures provide both aesthetic and functional solutions to enhance your oral health and confidence.
The Denture Creation Process
Creating dentures involves a precise and personalized approach. First, we take a series of impressions of your jaw, teeth, and gums to ensure a perfect fit. These impressions, along with detailed measurements, allow us to craft a model that reflects your unique oral structure. This model is then tested and adjusted for color, shape, and fit before being sent to a dental lab for the fabrication of your permanent dentures. Once completed, we will make any necessary adjustments to ensure your new dentures are comfortable and secure.
Types of Dentures
There are two primary types of dentures we offer at Evolve Dentistry: Conventional Full Dentures and Partial Dentures.
- Conventional Full Dentures: These are ideal for patients who need to replace all of their upper and/or lower teeth. After any necessary extractions, we wait for the gums to heal completely before taking impressions. This process allows us to create a custom model that fits perfectly in your mouth. After adjustments, the denture is crafted and fitted to ensure comfort and functionality.
- Partial Dentures: Also known as dental bridges, these are designed for individuals who are missing one or more teeth. Partial dentures not only restore your smile but also help prevent neighboring teeth from shifting into the gaps left by missing teeth. The bridge typically consists of crowns placed on the adjacent teeth with replacement teeth attached, seamlessly blending with your natural smile.
Caring for Your Dentures
Proper care is essential for maintaining your dentures. We recommend following up with our team as needed for adjustments, as dentures may require fine-tuning over time for optimal comfort and fit. Cleaning your dentures regularly with a soft-bristle toothbrush and a non-abrasive cleaner is crucial to prevent plaque buildup and keep them in good condition. Generally, dentures should be evaluated every 5-10 years to determine if they need to be replaced or refit.
