Dentures are removable and are made to replace missing teeth to restore your smile to its former glory.  If all your natural teeth are gone (no matter the cause) replacing missing teeth will not only benefit your appearance but also your health.  Teeth can be lost due to gum disease, tooth decay or injury.  Dentures will make it easier to eat and speak, something that you could not do easily if you had no teeth.  This is something people often take for granted.  Dentures Queen Creek AZ

When all your teeth have been lost, the facial muscles can begin to sag.  This will make you look older, which no one wants!  Having dentures will help fill out he appearance of your face and profile.  Dentures are made to resemble your natural teeth, not wavering much from you are used to.  Dentures can even improve the look of your smile! #smilewithconfidence

There are several types of dentures:

• Conventional:  Full and removable and placed in the mouth after the remaining teeth are removed and any disturbed tissue has had a chance to heal.  This can take several months.  #martindental
• Immediate:  This is a removable denture but is inserted the same day that remaining teeth are removed.  Your dentist will take measurements and also make models of your jaw during a preliminary visit.  This makes it so you don’t have to be without teeth during the healing period, but you may have to have the denture relined or remade after your jaw has had a chance to heal.  Dentures Queen Creek AZ
• Overdenture:  Often some teeth can be saved to help preserve the jaw bone and also provide stability and support for the new denture.  An overdenture will fit over the small remaining natural teeth only after they have been prepared by your dentist.  This type of denture or implants can serve the same function.
