Dentures are removable oral appliances used to replace multiple missing teeth. If you are missing several teeth or all your teeth, dentures might be just what you need to restore the function, beauty, and health of your smile. There are two types of dentures: complete dentures and partial dentures.

• A complete denture is used to replace all the teeth in a full dental arch. We may suggest a complete denture to replace all the teeth in both arches or just one, depending on your individual needs. Dr. Allen may suggest using a denture adhesive for improved stability.
• A partial denture is used if you are missing multiple teeth but have remaining natural teeth. A partial denture often includes a thin framework or clasps that attach to the natural teeth for a secure fit.

If you are missing multiple teeth Dr. Allen may recommend complete or partial dentures to restore your smile.  Dentures can improve your ability to properly speak and eat, restore your natural facial volume, and enhance the overall beauty of your smile. Your dentures will be custom made to fit your smile comfortably, aesthetically, and securely. Call our office today to learn more about how dentures can improve your smile. 804 236-2000
