All About Dentures

How do you make dentures look natural?

Our team will advise you on all the elements available in your new teeth selection. Color, texture, shape, and gum material are just some of the facets of what determine what looks natural or not.

What options are there? Tooth shape and color? Gum line? Gum materials? Mold sizes?

There are many options that go into crafting your new smile. These depend on whether or not the dentures are removable or not and how many teeth are affected.

Single tooth replacement Conventional bridges or implant retained crowns are used to replace single teeth.

Conventional bridges require that the surrounding teeth, upon which the bridge rests, be drilled down. This increases the wear and pressure placed on those teeth. If the supporting teeth develop cavities or periodontal disease, the conventional bridge may need to be replaced by an implant retained crown.

Implant retained crowns are a surgical intervention. A crown is attached to an implanted post. This implant then replaces the support of the lost tooth.

Multiple teeth replacements or dentures

There are several options for replacing multiple teeth:

  • checkMultiple single tooth implant with fixed partial dentures (also known as implant bridges)
  • checkRemovable partial dentures
  • checkConventional Fixed Partial Dentures

Implant bridges are an expansion on implant retained crowns. A single post implant supports a bridge of replaced teeth. Again, this is a surgical intervention that require posts to be implanted into the jaw bone.

Removable partial dentures involve denture teeth, acryclic gum replacement, and a metal framework. This approach doesn’t require any adjacent teeth be drilled. It uses the metal arms and framework to hold the denture teeth in place.

Conventional fixed partial dentures are similar to bridges in that they require adjacent teeth to be drilled down to support the partial. While this option lacks the appearance of metal in the mouth, it does increase the stress placed on the supporting teeth.
