Restore Your Smile

If you are missing one or more teeth in Mandeville, partial dentures may be the right replacement option for you. If you have an otherwise healthy mouth aside from your missing teeth, you are most likely a good candidate for partial dentures. Partial dentures are designed to replace your missing teeth and they are removable. They attach to several healthy teeth to hold a false tooth in place.

Full mouth dentures are usually only recommended by Dr. Schof for patients who have serious oral health issues, like advanced periodontal disease or tooth decay in most or all of their teeth. This is because a full mouth denture requires the extraction of all remaining teeth.

WHY CHOOSE DENTURES OVER DENTAL IMPLANTS?

Faster Results

Immediate dentures can be placed in your mouth as soon as your teeth are extracted, restoring your bite and smile immediately. In contrast, a dental implant can takes 3-6 to complete treatment.

Affordable

Partial and full dentures are the most affordable way to restore your smile, and they are usually covered by insurance. Dental implants, on the other hand, are typically not covered by dental insurance.

Non-Invasive

Partial dentures do not require any kind of invasive surgery, and full-mouth dentures only require the extraction of the remaining teeth. This makes the process less invasive compared to implants.

The Benefits of Dentures

Restore your facial appearance – Losing one or more teeth can change the way your face looks, and can even make you look older. Dentures can restore the natural shape and position of your jaw, allowing you to smile confidently again.
Protect remaining teeth from wear – If you are missing only a few teeth, excessive wear and strain may be placed on your remaining teeth when you bite or chew. Partial dentures help distribute the force of chewing and biting more evenly, which helps preserve your remaining teeth.
Enjoy your favorite foods again – If you are missing several teeth, you may not be able to enjoy your favorite foods. Eating things like apples, for example, is hard if you are missing your front teeth, and tough or fibrous foods like celery can be hard to chew without strong molars. With dentures, you can enjoy all of your favorite foods once again.
Stay within your budget – Dentures can often be a more economical dental solution depending on your case and your insurance.
Curb other oral and dental issues – Dentures can also prevent or treat issues such as: TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Disorder), problems with speech caused by missing teeth, trouble chewing food, and uneven bite.

Alternatives to dentures

If you’re unable to wear dentures or prefer a more permanent solution, you have options. Permanent solutions include dental implants, Hybridge, and dental bridges, which can be great solutions to missing teeth depending on your jaw bone health and the state of your existing teeth.
