What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding gum tissue. They can be full (replacing all teeth in the upper or lower jaw) or partial (replacing some missing teeth).
Dentures help restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently, support facial structure, and improve overall oral function.
Different Types of Dentures
Dentures come in several types to suit different needs. Understanding the options can help you choose the best solution for comfort, function, and appearance.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They are custom-made to fit your mouth and restore your smile, facial structure, and chewing ability.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures replace one or more missing teeth while preserving your remaining natural teeth. They are held in place with metal clasps or precision attachments and help prevent other teeth from shifting.
Immediate Dentures
Immediate dentures are placed right after tooth extraction, allowing you to have teeth while your gums heal. They are temporary and may need adjustments as your mouth changes during healing.
Overdentures
Overdentures fit over a small number of remaining natural teeth or dental implants. They provide extra stability and support compared to conventional dentures.
Implant-Supported Dentures
These dentures attach to dental implants for a secure, permanent fit. They offer improved chewing ability, comfort, and confidence while reducing movement compared to traditional dentures.
Emergency Denture Repair
A broken denture can make it hard to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. At Springfield Dental, we know how important it is to get it fixed quickly. That’s why we offer prompt emergency denture repair services, handling all types of repairs efficiently so you can get back to your day with your smile restored.
We Are Preferred Providers For:
Denture Fitting Process
Getting new dentures is a step-by-step process designed to ensure comfort, proper fit, and natural appearance. Our team guides you through each stage to make your experience smooth and stress-free.
Initial Consultation and Assessment
Your dentist will examine your mouth, discuss your needs, and take impressions of your gums and any remaining teeth to plan your custom dentures.
Creating a Model or Wax Try-In
A preliminary model or wax version of your dentures is made to check the fit, bite, and appearance. Adjustments can be made at this stage to ensure comfort and a natural look.
Denture Fabrication
Once the model is approved, the final dentures are crafted using durable materials, carefully shaped and coloured to match your mouth and smile.
Fitting and Adjustments
The dentures are fitted in your mouth, and your dentist makes any necessary adjustments for a secure, comfortable fit. You’ll be guided on how to wear and care for them properly.
Follow-Up and Maintenance
Follow-up appointments help monitor fit and function, and your dentist provides guidance for cleaning and long-term maintenance to keep your dentures comfortable and effective.
How to Tell If Your Dentures Require Repair
You may need to repair your dentures if you notice signs of damage or discomfort. Common indicators include cracks, chips, or broken pieces, loose or ill-fitting dentures, difficulty chewing or speaking, and irritation or soreness in your gums. Changes in the shape of your mouth over time can also affect the fit, making adjustments necessary. If you experience any of these issues, it’s important to see your dentist promptly, as timely repair can restore comfort, function, and confidence while preventing further damage.
