Dentures that fit and look natural

A complete denture replaces all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw. We design dentures digitally and 3D-print many of them in our office, so they're accurate and easy to remake if one is ever lost or broken.

Is it right for you?

  • You're missing all of your upper or lower teeth
  • Your remaining teeth need to be removed
  • Your current denture is loose, worn or broken

What to expect

  1. Exam and planningWe check your gums and bone and talk about how you want your smile to look.
  2. RecordsDigital scans or impressions and bite records are taken.
  3. Try-inYou see and test the look and fit before the final denture is made.
  4. Delivery and adjustmentsYour denture is fitted, and follow-up visits fine-tune any sore spots.

Our dentists are general dentists who provide this treatment in our office. Treatment recommendations follow an exam.

Options

Immediate dentures

Made ahead of time and placed the same day teeth are removed, so you're never without teeth. They usually need a reline after healing.

Conventional dentures

Made after the gums have healed, for the most precise long-term fit.

Relines and repairs

Gums change over time. A reline refits your denture to your gums, and many repairs can be done in-office.

Common questions

How long does it take to get used to a denture?

Most people adjust in a few weeks. Speaking and eating feel more natural with practice, and adjustments relieve sore spots.

How long do dentures last?

Typically several years. Your mouth changes over time, so relines and eventual replacement are normal.

Can implants make my denture more secure?

Yes. Implant-supported dentures snap onto implants so they don't slip.
