Tooth loss can develop due to several causes, including age, advanced gum disease, and tooth decay. When extensive tooth loss has started to affect your daily activities, it may be time to consider getting dentures in Peoria.

What Occurs When Getting Dentures?

Receiving a new set of affordable quality dentures usually involves several phases. First, your dentist will examine your teeth and determine which type of denture is best for you. Impressions and measurements may be taken to create a template for your new device. Some patients will require tooth extractions and implant placement, depending on the variety of denture selected. These procedures will be administered before your final denture is fitted. Once your mouth has thoroughly healed, you’ll receive your brand-new appliance.

What Types and Styles of Dentures Are Available?

We offer an array of affordable quality dentures to meet our patients’ needs. When you book an appointment with our office, one of our dentists will help you determine which type will best restore your smile.

Full or Partial Denture

A full denture acts as a replacement for a complete row of teeth in the upper or lower jaw. Full dentures can be placed using a bonding agent, but they can also be permanently attached using dental implants. They are typically made using natural-looking acrylic, porcelain, and metal.

Partial dentures are usually recommended when you still have many healthy teeth remaining. They function much like a dental bridge, replacing a smaller area of teeth. Metal clasps on each side of the partial allow you to remove it easily for cleaning.

Flexible Partials

Flexible partials are created using soft, pliable materials and do not have a rigid base or metal clasps. Instead, these appliances use gum-colored clasps, which are unnoticeable when worn. This solution is best for those who want a comfortable, discreet way to replace their teeth.

Implant-Supported Denture

Implant-supported appliances offer a secure fit without the use of sticky denture adhesives. They’re attached to your jaw with two or four dental implants, which are placed before your new appliance is received. The added stability of an implant-supported denture makes it an effective appliance for the lower jaw.

What Is the Cost of Dentures?

The price of new dentures usually depends on several factors, such as the type of appliance selected, the procedures needed beforehand, and the materials used to construct the denture. During your denture consultation appointment, one of our dentists will explain your options and offer you an estimate of the total dentures cost.

What Are Dentures?

An effective treatment for tooth loss, a denture is a personalized dental device consisting of a removable metal frame or secured dental implants attached to a row of pontic teeth. Complete and partial dentures are available, depending on the severity of your tooth loss.

What Is a Soft Denture Reline and Will It Make My Denture More Comfortable?

Wearing dentures in Peoria can sometimes lead to discomfort or sore spots. When this happens, a soft reline can make your device more comfortable. A reline involves the dentist resurfacing your dentures with a soft, pliable material. Afterward, your appliance should remain comfortable for about two years.

How Do All-on-Four Dentures Work?

All-on-Four dentures offer increased biting power, the convenience of a fixed appliance, and a stable, firm hold. During this innovative procedure, a dentist affixes a row of pontic teeth and tissue to four dental implants in the lower jaw. Give us a call today to learn more about this treatment option.
