Dentures in St. Martins, MO

What are Dentures?

Dentures are a removable appliance that replaces missing teeth. They’re constructed from acrylic resin or metal and can be used to fill in gaps, restore your ability to chew and speak clearly, and provide aesthetic enhancement for the smile. Depending on your needs, our dentists can suggest either full or partial denture solutions.

Full Dentures

Full dentures are an option when all or most of the teeth in your upper or lower arch are missing. They consist of a full set of false teeth mounted on an acrylic base that is designed to fit snugly over your gums. Full dentures can be held in place with natural suction, dental adhesive, or implants for added stability.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are an option when only some of your teeth are missing. They’re made from a metal framework and acrylic resin to fit securely in the empty spaces between your natural teeth. Partial dentures can also be held in place with natural suction, dental adhesive, or implants for increased stability.

Types of Dentures

At High Street Dentistry, we offer both conventional and implant-supported dentures.

Conventional Dentures

Conventional dentures are the most common type of denture and are held in place using natural suction or dental adhesive. This type of denture is ideal for those who don’t want to commit to a more permanent solution, as they can be removed at any time.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-supported dentures are a more permanent option and are held in place with dental implants. These dentures provide greater stability and comfort than conventional dentures, as the implants help to keep them firmly in place. Implant-supported dentures also help to preserve the jawbone, which is lost over time when teeth are missing.

Benefits of Dentures

Dentures offer a variety of benefits, including:

• Improved appearance and smile
• Increased comfort when speaking and chewing
• Enhanced self-esteem
• Preventing the remaining teeth from shifting out of place
• Preserving your jawbone structure
