They come in three varieties:

Thanks to advances in new materials, your dentures can fit comfortably while also improving the appearance of your smile. If you need to have multiple teeth extracted or want an alternative to dental implants, a removable denture may be just the thing!

Full Dentures

Sometimes called “plates,” a full denture replaces all your upper or lower teeth at one time, using a removable full-mouth prosthesis. Your new denture is made in such a way that mimics the appearance of natural tooth and gum structures.

Be sure to wear your denture all day and practice eating and speaking at home. Remove it each night to give your soft tissue a rest.

Partial Dentures

If you need to replace one or several teeth at one time, but still have many healthy teeth remaining, a partial denture is a choice. Metal cast partials use a smaller base than a full-coverage denture. This allows them to wrap around the mouth and replace missing teeth right where you need them.

In addition to cast metal designs, Dr. Kamangar also offers Valplast partials. These flexible prosthetics use flesh-colored acrylic materials instead of a metal base to replace your missing teeth. They are:

Partial dentures snap into place around your existing teeth. This prevents the need for any extractions or surgeries. They’re also a good alternative if you are not a candidate for dental implants or bridges.

Implant Supported Overdentures

Implant supported overdentures are a removable, yet secure prosthesis that stays in place when you need it most. Instead of relying on adhesives or pastes, your new denture snaps right over as few as two or four dental implants.
