At Real Life Dental, we specialize in providing customized dentures and partials to restore the smiles and confidence of our patients. Dentures and partials are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues, offering both aesthetic and functional benefits.
Understanding Dentures and Partials
Dentures: Full dentures are used when all teeth in an arch are missing, while partial dentures are recommended when some natural teeth remain.
Partials: Partials fill in gaps left by missing teeth and are secured in place using clasps attached to adjacent teeth.
How Dentures and Partials Help Dental Patients
Dentures and partials restore bite functionality, making it easier to chew and eat a variety of foods. They can also improve speech clarity by filling in missing teeth that may affect pronunciation.
Dentures and partials restore the appearance of the smile, enhancing facial features and boosting confidence. And by replacing missing teeth and tissues, dentures and partials provide support for facial muscles, preventing sagging.
Creation and Fitting Process
After an initial consultation about your goals for your smile, your dentist at Real Life Dental will take detailed impressions of your mouth to create custom dentures or partials. From this, a mock-up of the appliance will be made to ensure proper fit and aesthetics. Once adjustments are made, the final dentures or partials will be fitted and secured in place.
Dentures and partials require specific care and cleaning to keep them in tip-top shape.
- Daily Cleaning: Remove and clean dentures or partials daily with a soft-bristled brush and denture cleaner.
- Soaking: Store dentures or partials in water or denture solution overnight to keep them moist.
- Regular Check-Ups: Schedule routine dental visits for adjustments, repairs, and to ensure proper fit.
- Handle with Care: Handle dentures or partials carefully to avoid damage, especially when cleaning or removing them.
