Full Dentures for Complete Tooth Loss
Full dentures are a time-tested solution for patients who have lost all or most of the teeth in an arch. These removable prosthetics are custom-fitted to your gums and jaw for a comfortable, natural-looking result. They restore your ability to chew and speak clearly while giving you a full smile again.
Dr. Immel takes the time to get the fit right. Because we're a small practice, you'll work directly with him throughout the process, not a rotating cast of providers you've never met.
Partial Dentures When You Still Have Natural Teeth
If you're missing some teeth but still have healthy ones remaining, a partial denture may be the ideal solution. Partials clip onto your existing teeth using small clasps, filling in the gaps without affecting the teeth around them. They're removable, easy to clean, and a cost-effective alternative to implants or bridgework.
Partial dentures can also help prevent your remaining teeth from shifting into the open spaces left by missing teeth, which protects your bite long-term.
What to Expect During the Denture Process
Getting dentures is a multi-step process, and knowing what to expect helps patients feel more at ease:
- Initial consultation: Dr. Immel evaluates your oral health, discusses your goals, and recommends the best restorative option.
- Impressions and measurements: Precise molds are taken so your dentures fit comfortably and look natural.
- Fitting appointments: You'll come in for adjustments to fine-tune the fit before your final dentures are delivered.
- Follow-up care: Dr. Immel monitors your comfort and makes any needed refinements after you've worn them.
Because we know our patients personally, adjustments are easy to schedule and handled promptly.
