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

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

Our prosthodontist, Dr. Archacki, may recommend complete or partial dentures with or without dental implants 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. We invite you to call or visit us soon to learn more about how dentures can improve your smile!
