Why Do I Need to Replace My Missing Teeth?
The more teeth you’ve lost, the more it impairs your oral and general health. When a tooth is gone, its root no longer stimulates your jawbone through biting and chewing. The jawbone then starts to deteriorate, resulting in the rest of your natural teeth losing support. Over time, they can loosen or even fall out.
It’s also hard to maintain a balanced diet when you’re missing teeth. Not being able to chew crunchy fruits and vegetables or tough meats can cause nutritional deficiencies that negatively impact your overall health. Your facial structures will also lose support, making you look older because of premature drooping and wrinkling of your skin.
Types of Dentures
Depending on how many teeth you’ve lost, your dentist in Allen may recommend one of the following:
Full Dentures
A full denture replaces an entire arch of missing teeth. An acrylic base holds a row of realistic ceramic teeth and snugly fits against your gums with natural suction.
Partial Dentures
If you still have some teeth left, we can complete your smile with a partial denture. We capture impressions of your mouth to craft replacement teeth that perfectly resemble your natural ones. The prosthetic teeth are attached to a metal framework that clasps into place behind your remaining teeth.
Implant-Retained Dentures
For a sturdier, longer-lasting solution, a full or partial denture can be secured with dental implants. Once these titanium posts have been placed in your jawbone, they prevent your denture from slipping at awkward times. They also stimulate the jawbone to prevent it from breaking down.
Benefits of Dentures
Dentures have a reputation of looking and feeling unnatural, but we use high-quality materials to create a personalized solution for each patient. Here are some of the additional benefits that dentures offer:
- You can once again enjoy a varied diet and speak with clarity.
- Traditional partials or dentures can be removed for easy cleaning.
- Dentures are a highly cost-effective way to replace missing teeth.
