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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
