Do you have missing teeth? You could really benefit from replacing them—and not just because of the overall look of your smile. Your oral health can improve, too!
But which tooth replacement is best for you and your level of tooth loss? In many cases, dentures in Lincoln provide a great way to replace teeth—and you don’t have to be over the age of 65 to have them. Dentures provide a stable replacement for missing teeth for patients of all ages. Learn more about different types of dentures to choose from in this week’s blog post!
What Type of Dentures Are Right for You?
Dentures are restorative prosthetics that are personalized to fit your missing teeth. Dentures are crafted from high-quality materials that make a gum-colored base. Then the appropriate prosthetic teeth are attached to this base to fill the gaps in your smile. With this dental restoration, you’ll feel confident in showing off your teeth and gums again!
If you’re considering getting dentures, you have three different options to choose from that can address your specific problems with tooth loss.
Partial Dentures
If you have missing teeth in different parts of your smile, you might want to consider getting partial dentures in Lincoln. These dentures only address a mid-range level of tooth loss that will work to replace sporadic missing teeth in the smile. The prosthetic teeth are attached to the gum base in different areas so that when you wear it, it fits like the perfect puzzle piece to complete your smile.
Full Dentures
If you’re completely edentulous (missing all teeth), full dentures are great for you. A full denture replaces the whole arch of teeth. You can receive two of them to replace a full mouth of teeth.
Implant Supported Dentures
Implant supported dentures combine the use of dental implants and dentures to create the most stable tooth replacement on the market. Implants work to hold your denture (whether it’s a full or partial) in place by permanently anchoring it to your jawbone.
Get Started Today
Do dentures sound like they may be a viable option for you? They work for many patients! To get started, you’ll need to schedule a consultation with your dentist in Lincoln. This way, your dentist will be able to evaluate your level of tooth loss and discuss which denture may be best for you. Also, they can look at the strength of your jaw to see if you’re a good candidate for implant supported dentures as well.
