Complete & Parital Dentures

Dentures are replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissue that can be taken in and out of your mouth. They take some getting used to, and will never feel exactly the same as your natural teeth. However, today’s dentures are natural looking and very comfortable. There are two types of dentures:

• Full (Complete)- when all of the teeth are missing. We use the AvaDent Digital Dentures procedure, which enables precise fittings.
• Partial - when some natural teeth remain. They fill the missing space and prevent other teeth from shifting.

There are two types of full denture:

• Conventional - are made after any remaining teeth are removed and tissue has healed. It takes usually 4-6 weeks and during that time the patient goes without teeth.
• Immediate - are made in advance and are inserted immediately after the remaining teeth are removed having the benefit of never being without teeth. Once the tissue shrinks and heals, some improvement must be done.
