If you have lost your natural teeth due to periodontal disease, injury and tooth decay, we can restore your smile by replacing your missing teeth with dentures.
There are two types of dentures: complete and partial. Complete dentures cover the patient’s entire jaw while partial dentures, with their metal framework, replace multiple missing teeth. Ask Dr. Saghatchi to see which type would be right for you.
Dentures restore normal eating and speaking abilities and prevent the sagging of facial muscles, which can make those with missing teeth appear older than they are.
Best of all, with improved technology and updated materials, Dr. Saghatchi can now make dentures appear more natural and more comfortable.
Each morning, prior to inserting your dentures, brush your gums, tongue and palate with a soft-bristled tooth brush. Brushing stimulates circulation in the gums and aids in ridding plaque.
It may take some time to adjust to your dentures. Speaking and eating may feel different at first, but these regular activities will resume normally once you are accustomed to your dentures.
Dr. Saghatchi will need to examine your mouth and dentures regularly to ensure a healthy and comfortable fit.
