Dentures

We believe that new dentures not only improve smiles, but more importantly, they improve lives. Not only will you be more confident in your appearance, but you will eat better, and that can have a very positive impact on your overall health. Our goal is to provide you with a denture, crafted to your personal treatment needs, at an affordable fee.

In providing dentures for you, our Patient Satisfaction Commitment simply means we want you to be completely satisfied with the services you receive at the practice. Our goal is to do the best we can to meet your expectations as we help you with your experience in wearing dentures. 

We provide Custom Dentures where the denture teeth are set in a wax base so you may try them in to see how the denture will look before it is completed. You may make changes to suit you, consistent with your dental needs. After you have approved the look of your Custom Dentures, the laboratory will custom finish your denture in the permanent acrylic base material. It's like designing your own smile!

We also provide Premium Dentures where the dentures are made with the best denture teeth available, which are highly resistant to wearing down and do not stain easily.  For patients who have a difficult time chewing certain foods such as meat and lettuce, we offer a real breakthrough denture that has a medical stainless steel blade imbedded in the back chewing teeth. These bladed teeth working against specially shaped opposing teeth act like a knife against a chopping block to increase the efficiency of chewing. For patients with a loose lower denture, the cutting ability of this denture is usually a major improvement over anything worn before.

A Removable Partial Denture replaces missing teeth and fills in spaces for patients who still have some of their own teeth. This appliance can be designed to replace 1 tooth or 14 teeth in either upper or lower arch. Our standard partial denture is made from a combination of cast chrome alloy and acrylic. It has metal clasps which attach to the patient's teeth.

We also offer a Cosmetic Partials which is metal free. It is made from a flexible tissue colored thermoplastic material called Valplast. With a durable Valplast partial, it is almost impossible to tell real from replacement teeth. The results are truly remarkable.

We now offer a New Denture Stablization System

Undoubtedly the lower denture presents the most difficulty for patients adjusting to dentures for the first time Ö or even for experienced denture wearers. It can be frustrating as you attempt to eat certain foods, or even to speak with confidence without fear that your lower denture will begin to float in your mouth.

Denture Stablization System is a mini dental implant system that in most cases can be placed and attached to your lower denture in the same visit. There is no need for any incision or stitches. Within one hour you can be on your way with a secure lower denture, and able to eat and speak much more comfortably. Most importantly, compared to traditional dental implants, which can cost over $5000 per arch, the Mini Implant System is much more affordable Ö as much as 60% -70% less expensive.

The Mini Implant System consists of a miniature titanium implant that acts like the root of your tooth and a retaining fixture that is incorporated into the base of your denture. The head of the implant is shaped like a ball, and the retaining fixture acts like a socket that contains a rubber O-ring. The O ring snaps over the ball when the denture is seated and holds the denture at a predetermined level of force. When seated, the denture gently rests on the gum tissue.

Placement of the implants is accomplished quickly and easily in a process performed in the dentist's office. The procedure generally takes 1-1 1/2 hours. Using a precise, controlled, minimally invasive surgical technique, Mini Implants are placed into the jawbone. The heads of the implants protrude from the gum tissue and provide a strong, solid foundation for securing dentures. It is a one step procedure that involves minimally invasive surgery, no sutures nor the typical months of healing.

Please give our office a call for a Complimentary Consultation to see if you are a candidate for Mini Implants.
