What denture types are available with Spring area dentists?

 In Dentures

Dr. Robert Dernick’s dental practice in the Spring area provides patients with preventative, general, and cosmetic dentistry services. Using some of the most advanced technologies and best materials available, he offers his patients many solutions to their dental problems and oral health needs including dentures.

Dentures have come a long way since those fabricated in past generations. Full cosmetic dentures are made of high quality acrylics to create false teeth and false gum tissue for optimum results. Partial dentures, the other type of denture, are made to replace one or more teeth within the dental arch. These are fabricated from metal and acrylic and are made to snap into place. Both types of dentures are removable, which makes adjustments and cleanings easy.

Full dentures and partial dentures are the two primary types of dentures. Full dentures can be used in conjunction with dental implants, which are surgically placed into the jawbone and they can help stabilize the dentures to provide a wonderful alternative to dental adhesives for stability. Partial dentures are stand-alone restorations that require existing teeth to hold them in place. Using a partial denture is much more economical than placing single dental implants to repair the smile or deal with several bridges on the top or bottom arch.

Dr. Robert Dernick can assist patients in determining which types of dentures are right for them. During an initial evaluation and consultation appointment, x-rays may be taken to check bone health and find out if dental implants are viable options. Additionally, patients may be asked questions about their lifestyle, preferences, and about what they would like to achieve within their smile to understand whether dentures are the best method of repair.
