Full dentures are a reliable way for Drumheller, Alberta patients to replace missing teeth. Those looking for a “dentist for full dentures near me” can consult with our team at Riverside Dental Clinic to determine if they are appropriate candidates.
Full dentures, sometimes referred to by our dental team as “complete dentures,” are used to replace all the teeth in the dental arch. Patients who are missing one or more teeth in the arch, but not all, are better suited for solutions such as dental bridges, dental implants, or partial dentures. Full dentures rest along the gum line and may be held in place with dental implants or denture adhesives, depending on your unique situation, budget, and needs. Full dentures are the only way to replace these teeth and restore the function needed to eat and speak clearly. They also restore the smile’s appearance, allowing our patients to regain confidence and improve their self-esteem.
Full dentures begin with impressions, which Dr. Poznikoff will complete during one of your first visits. These are sent to a dental laboratory where a professional will create the denture to match the patient’s overall appearance and any existing teeth in the smile. This requires close attention to the teeth’ colour, shape, and size to ensure a natural finished product. Patients might choose to have dental implants placed along the arch to hold the dentures in place if they desire a more stable solution.
Restoring your smile after tooth loss with full dentures is one of the most effective ways to ensure you can enjoy all your favourite foods!
