Dentures
Dr. Kisner may recommend dentures when patients have lost all or most of their teeth. Full and partial dentures restore stability inside your mouth, offering a design that looks natural and healthy. We have seen the transformation as patients regain control over their lives and confidently smile again. If you want dentures in Nashville, come to West Meade Dental.
What are Dentures?
In addition to restoring the ability to chew and speak correctly, dentures can also help improve the smile’s appearance. For many people, dentures offer a welcome solution to the problems caused by tooth loss.
Nashville Dentures
Depending on the number of lost teeth, you will need either a complete set or a partial denture. Full dentures substitute for your whole set of teeth on the upper jaw, the lower jaw, or the entire mouth. A partial prosthetic will replace a few teeth in either arch and fit around your remaining teeth. Both types are completely removable.
What are the Benefits of Dentures?
Dentures can offer the following benefits:
- Replacement of missing teeth and improved esthetics
- Improved speech and chewing capabilities
- Expanded dietary options
- Support for facial structures
- Renewed confidence
How to Care For Your Dentures
Implant-Supported Dentures
For increased comfort and stability, Dr. Kisner may recommend an implant-supported denture. With implant-supported prosthetics, titanium posts, or implants, are placed into your jawbone. Your denture then snaps onto the implants and is held securely in place. This treatment is often more stable and comfortable in the long run, but is more of a complicated process to put the implants in place.
Fabrication of a denture or partial can take 2-5 visits. Everything about your prosthetic, from tooth shape and shade to smile design, will be custom-fitted to your mouth.
