The Natural Looking Denture

Dentures are replacements for missing teeth that can be taken out and put back into your mouth. While dentures take some getting used to, and will never feel exactly the same as one’s natural teeth, today’s dentures are natural looking and more comfortable than ever.

What are dentures?

Dentures are a type of prosthetic tooth replacement that can be removed and replaced at any time. Since they are, in fact, fake teeth, they will never look or feel the same as natural teeth. However, modern dentures have seen many improvements over older models. This means they are more comfortable and attractive than ever before.

There are two main types of dentures. Depending on your individual needs, Dr. Goldberg will help you decide if you are more suited for full or partial dentures:

Full dentures – Full dentures are usually used to replace entire arches of teeth after they have been removed because of decay or injury. Although it usually takes about 12 weeks after tooth removal before permanent dentures can be placed, Dr. Goldberg will give you a temporary denture to wear in the meantime.

Partial dentures – Partial dentures are used when one or more natural teeth remain and do not need extraction. This type of denture fits around the remaining teeth and can easily be removed at any time. Partials are attached to adjacent teeth for support.

What are the benefits?

Removable dentures have some advantages over other types of fake teeth. They are especially beneficial for those who are not candidates for or unable to undergo dental implant surgery. Some benefits include:

  • No need for surgery
  • Easy to maintain and clean
  • Easily removable before sleep or meal time
  • Restored chewing function
  • Prevention of facial collapse
