Denture Options for Replacing Missing Teeth
Welcome to Troy Dental - your trusted provider of high-quality dental services in Troy. If you are missing teeth and searching for effective solutions, you've come to the right place. Dr. Marvin Blumentritt, an experienced dentist specializing in restorative dentistry, offers a range of denture options to help restore your smile and improve both function and aesthetics.
The Importance of Replacing Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can have a significant impact on your overall oral health and well-being. When you lose one or more teeth, the remaining teeth may shift, causing misalignment and biting problems. Additionally, the loss of teeth can affect your ability to chew properly, leading to digestion issues. From a cosmetic perspective, missing teeth can significantly impact your self-confidence and appearance.
At Troy Dental, we understand the importance of providing effective tooth replacement options. We offer a range of denture solutions tailored to meet your specific needs.
Full Dentures
If you are missing all of your teeth in the upper or lower jaw, full dentures may be the ideal solution for you. Full dentures consist of a complete set of teeth attached to a gum-colored base. They are removable and can be easily taken out for cleaning. Dr. Blumentritt will ensure that your full dentures are custom-made to fit securely and comfortably in your mouth, allowing you to regain the ability to speak and chew confidently.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are an excellent option if you are missing several teeth but still have some healthy natural teeth remaining. These dentures consist of replacement teeth attached to a metal or acrylic base. Partial dentures are designed to fit seamlessly with your existing teeth, filling in the gaps for a complete and natural-looking smile.
Implant-Supported Dentures
If you desire a more permanent tooth replacement solution, implant-supported dentures may be the right choice for you. These dentures are secured in place with the help of dental implants, which are surgically inserted into the jawbone. Implant-supported dentures offer enhanced stability and function, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about denture movement. Dr. Blumentritt will assess your oral health and determine if you are a suitable candidate for this advanced tooth replacement option.
Caring for Your Dentures
Proper denture care is essential for maintaining their longevity and functionality. Here are a few tips to help you care for your dentures:
- Remove and rinse your dentures daily to remove food particles and plaque.
- Brush your dentures with a soft toothbrush and non-abrasive denture cleaner to remove stains and bacteria.
- Soak your dentures in a denture cleaning solution overnight to keep them clean and fresh.
- Visit Dr. Blumentritt regularly for denture adjustments and check-ups to ensure a proper fit and optimal oral health.
