Dentures Designed to Fit Your Life and Your Smile

Modern dentures are one of the most reliable methods of tooth replacement. Don’t be swayed by any preconceived notions about your grandparents’ fake teeth. Customized denture appliances are a viable solution that looks natural, feels great, and delivers a beautiful, functional, healthy smile. Dr. Charmaine Johnson and her dental care team at Premier Smile Center in Fort Lauderdale are ready to help you determine if dentures or another type of restoration is right for you.

Benefits of Customized Modern Dentures

Missing teeth are a big problem for any smile, and they can only be replaced with restorative dentistry. Some people opt for dental implants, others get a dental bridge, but many say yes to personalized dentures because they want benefits like:
  • Convenience
  • Comfort
  • Affordability
  • Custom fit
  • Reliability
  • Ease of use
  • Natural appearance
Millions of Americans are missing teeth, whether from age, accident, or infection. When you have holes in your smile – front teeth, molars, or otherwise – you know your confidence takes a hit. You want to feel good about yourself on the job, with friends, on the screen, and at play. Dentures make it all possible.

Types of Dentures

When most people think of dentures, they imagine television’s version of someone losing their teeth or struggling with adhesive. Sure, these circumstances can happen, but not if you have personalized appliances that fit you properly. These oral appliances are made in different forms to accommodate the number of missing teeth and where they are in your mouth. Some of the most common options include:

1. Implant dentures

2. Partial dentures

3. Full dentures

Implant dentures

 It’s hard to improve the combination of dental implants and modern dentures. The implants are surgically placed in the jawbone and dentures are permanently attached to the posts. That means nothing covering the roof of your mouth and no removable appliances, plus teeth that function flawlessly.

2

Partial dentures

If you’re missing several teeth in the same area of your mouth, this small appliance may be just the right restoration. Its base is tinted to blend in with the color of your gums and the metal framework easily snaps in and fills the gaps in your smile with natural-looking prosthetic teeth.

Full dentures

When people think about dentures, most of them visualize the appliance that fits on the roof of the mouth and replaces an entire arch of missing teeth. This restoration requires adhesive to stay put, does cover the palate, and must be removed and cleaned daily – minor inconveniences when it comes to finally replacing missing teeth.

Are You a Good Candidate for Dentures?

Everyone is different, and you may not be concerned about the logistics of this type of appliance as much as you’re concerned about budget. If your goal is to complete your smile and replace missing teeth affordably and quickly, these usually fit the bill. The great thing is, with today’s restorative dentistry innovations, you’re getting an excellent product:
  • Eat with confidence
  • Smile happily
  • Look better
  • Speak articulately
  • Feel better
