Dentures
Dentures and partial dentures are prosthetic devices designed to help patients with missing teeth perform daily activities that would otherwise be difficult. For those who have experienced tooth decay or infection to the point of needing tooth extraction, dentures may be one way to restore the look and feel of the natural teeth. While dentures are a replacement for the natural teeth, many patients feel that they function and feel similar to their natural smile. For patients who have not lost all of their teeth, partial dentures are available as well. At Concerned Dental, we take the time to evaluate each case individually and help you restore your best smile using the treatment option that best suits your needs.
When are dentures needed?
One of our skilled dentists may recommend dentures if you:
- Have lost most or all of your natural teeth due to infection, injury, or decay
- Have had tooth extractions for all natural teeth
- No longer have any gum diseases
- Seek natural-looking teeth and regular function
- Do not want permanent dental implants
