Why Dentures for Replacing Teeth?
A denture generally consists of a plate and one or more artificial teeth that are used to replace missing or broken teeth. Dentures are available in an array of types and are designed to fill in gaps and to provide added support for biting and chewing while presenting the most attractive appearance for you or your family members.
What Varieties of Dentures Are Available?
At our dental practice, we offer a selection of denture types ideally suited to your needs and your budget. We will work with you to determine the most practical solutions for your missing teeth needs. Here are some of the most common styles of dentures available from Forever Family Dental of New Lenox.
Full Denture
If you are missing numerous teeth or have damaged or decayed teeth on the upper or lower portion of your jaw, a full denture offers the ability to replace an entire row of teeth at one time. Your full or complete denture will typically require the removal of teeth on the appropriate row before these dental appliances can be fitted to your gums and fabricated to suit your needs.
Partial Denture
A partial denture works in much the same way as a full or complete denture. Instead of replacing an entire row of teeth, these dental appliances replace just a few teeth in a specific part of the mouth. A partial denture that attaches permanently to the surrounding teeth is usually referred to as a bridge. Removable partials are available in a variety of different materials and configurations to suit your personal needs.
Flexible Partial Denture
Fabricated from lightweight and easily bendable materials, a flexible partial denture is easy to apply and to remove. These denture options are designed to blend in with gums and to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, which makes them a popular choice for those looking for the most attractive denture options.
Implant-supported Dentures
Dental implants are an excellent choice for maintaining the most secure attachment between your dentures and your jaw. Implants are placed into the bone of the jaw and allowed to heal in place. These posts are then used as the anchorage points for a denture, artificial bridge or other appliance. At Forever Family Dental of New Lenox, we work with you to determine the right solutions for your dental implants and affordable quality dentures.
Why Select All-on-4® Dentures?
If you are considering All-on-4®treatment, Forever Family Dental of New Lenox can provide you with detailed information and practical support for determining whether All-on-4 dentures are right for you. This innovative treatment option costs significantly less than individual implants for each tooth. By placing four implants on the upper and four implants on the lower jaw, All-on-4 can provide full support for two sets of replacement teeth. It’s also possible to do just the top or the bottom. The great part about these implant-supported dentures is the unique way in which the implants are situated, creating greater biting power and a solid base for your denture.
What’s Included in the Denture Process?
Most denture applications involve a few different steps. Not all of these may be applicable to your situation.
- First, your dentist will evaluate the condition of your mouth, your teeth and your gums. If extractions are required, we will schedule a time for these procedures and will provide you with detailed information on the cost of this process and the expected results.
- Dental implants may also be required to support your dentures. We will work with you to create a schedule and a payment option that works for your needs.
- Once the preparatory work has been completed, your dentist will take impressions of your gums to make sure that your denture will fit properly.
- The final step is to attach your denture to your implants or to perform the final adjustments and fittings for removable denture applications.
How Much Do Dentures Cost?
The cost of your denture application will vary depending on whether you require implants, extractions or specialty services and on the materials used to construct your dentures. We will work with you to make your treatment plan as affordable as possible.
Why Select a Soft Reline for Dentures?
A soft denture reline consists of a pliable layer of cushioning material. This material is applied to the surface of a denture, providing greater comfort for the denture wearer. It will also protect the gums and the roof of the mouth from the hard surfaces on the upper or lower denture.
