Partial Dentures

Partial dentures can replace several missing teeth but not a complete arch. Partials rely upon remaining natural teeth for support and a secure fit, and they reduce the risk of tooth migration and additional tooth loss. 

  • Valplast Denture – Valplast dentures are made from thermoplastic nylon resin. These dentures are thinner, longer-lasting, and more flexible than acrylic and metal dentures.
  • Acrylic Denture – Acrylic dentures are fabricated from 100 per cent acrylic and contain no metal substructure. Acrylic partials can be a temporary or permanent solution to tooth loss. 
  • Chrome Denture – A chrome denture consists of a metal framework that supports prosthetic teeth. 

Full Dentures 

Full dentures, also called complete dentures, replace an entire upper or lower arch with custom-made prosthetic teeth. Full dentures sit atop the gums and require adhesives to remain in place. 

Implant-Supported Dentures

As the name implies, implant-supported dentures rely on the structural support of dental implants to hold prosthetic teeth in place. This type of denture provides a solid foundation for a patient’s newly restored smile, and adhesives are unnecessary. Patients don’t have to worry about dentures potentially slipping or sliding out of position with implant-supported dentures.

Exploring the Benefits of Dentures

There are many reasons why dentures are a popular treatment option for patients in Alstonville and the surrounding area. Our long-standing staff has very little turnover, and we’re committed to providing quality care to you and your family. Let’s explore what dentures could do for you:
Restored Chewing
Once you replace your missing teeth, you’ll be able to enjoy your favourite foods again. You won’t have to limit yourself to soft foods anymore.
Enhanced Speech
Dentures can make it possible to speak more clearly and naturally articulate what you want to say. When you’re missing teeth, you can’t do that.
Reduced Sagging
Without teeth to fill out your cheeks, your facial muscles can sag and create a sunken appearance. This can make you look older and less vital.

3 Types of Dentures at Daley Street Dental

Dentures have come a long way in recent years. They are no longer bulky and cumbersome. Rather, they are custom-fitted to look natural and restore function. 

We offer three distinct types of dentures:

  • Complete Dentures: Complete dentures are used when all teeth are lost in an arch. The teeth are custom coloured and sit on a gum-coloured base. The prosthetic fits over the upper and/or lower jaw and uses suction and bone ridges for support. 
  • Partial Dentures: Partial dentures are similar to complete dentures, but the custom prosthetics only fill in where teeth are missing. They use clips and healthy remaining teeth for stability. 
  • Implant Dentures: Implant dentures rely on four or more implant posts per arch to secure the denture to the jaw. Implants mean the prosthetic will never shift or slip. It will not require relines or adhesives.

Customised Dentures in Alstonville

Using state-of-the-art technology, we design custom dentures that are indistinguishable from natural teeth. Our dentists ensure your prosthetics are functional, comfortable and complementary to your appearance. 

Our highly skilled and experienced dentists customise each denture for optimal results. We take digital impressions and fabricate a durable, lifelike and attractive set of teeth. Not only can dentures enhance a patient’s appearance, but they can also drastically improve one’s oral health and general wellness. 

Caring for Your Dentures 

A denture can last for many years without blemishes or breaks if one practices excellent oral health habits and hygiene. Our dentists recommend brushing your dentures daily with a denture toothbrush and cleaner to remove food particles and bacteria. Some materials are too abrasive for dentures, so please avoid using toothpaste or a hard-bristled toothbrush. 

It’s also important to rinse your dentures daily and avoid eating hard or sticky foods that can damage your dentures. Dentures must remain moist to prevent cracking or losing their shape. When a patient isn’t wearing their dentures, they can store them in denture solution or water. 

Regular dental exams and cleans help maintain your oral health and the condition of your dentures.
