Dentures
A DENTURE is a removable replacement for missing teeth.
Teeth can be lost due to a variety of reasons like decay, gum disease, injury, neglect and certain medical conditions.
The face gets a sunken and collapsed appearance as the cheeks and lips have no support from inside. This results in an “old and aging ” appearance and is often accompanied by loss of self-esteem.
Replacement of teeth with Dentures can help reverse these conditions. Dentures enable a person to eat better, look better and thus restore the quality of their life. They fill out the appearance of your face and profile and can be made to closely resemble your natural teeth. In some cases, Dentures may even improve the look of your smile!
A denture can be a PARTIAL Denture, made to restore a single tooth or several teeth. Or it can be a COMPLETE denture where in all the teeth are replaced. Our complete dentures are made of an acrylic material, custom molded to adapt to your gums and support the teeth.

Type of dentures
Dentures can be of the following types.
Immediate dentures are inserted immediately after the removal of the teeth. The advantage of this is that you do not have to be without teeth during the healing period. To make this possible, we take impressions of your jaws before all your teeth are extracted. However, bones and gums shrink in the first six months following the removal of teeth which makes the immediate dentures loose and they then need to be changed.
Conventional dentures are made after all the teeth have been removed and the tissues have healed. The healing may take several months during which time you will have your immediate dentures.
Overdentures In some cases we may decide to save some of your teeth. These teeth are prepared and your dentures are made to fit over them. Saving some of the teeth within the jaw bone helps us in preserving your jawbone and slow down its’ recession. This results in greater support to the denture and makes it more stable.
Implant Supported Dentures As the name suggests, these dentures are supported and attached to implants. For all those who don’t know, a regular denture rests on the gums, and is not supported by implants. Dental implants are small titanium posts securely anchored into the jawbone. A denture which is supported by an implant or attached to an implant is very firm, does not move and is far more comfortable than a conventional denture. With implant supported dentures you need not worry about your denture slipping or shifting. Your teeth look and function just like beautiful, straight, natural teeth allowing you to eat with greater satisfaction, speak with greater clarity and smile with greater confidence.
