Dentures: A Patient-Friendly Guide
Welcome to our denture service page! If you’re missing several teeth, dentures can be a comfortable and affordable way to restore your smile and make everyday activities—like eating and speaking—much easier.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth. They are custom-made to fit your mouth and restore the look and function of your smile. Depending on your needs, dentures can replace all of your teeth (full dentures) or just a few missing ones (partial dentures).
What to Expect After Getting Dentures
At first, dentures can feel a little different—it’s normal to need some time to adjust. Your mouth muscles, tongue, and gums will gradually get used to them. With practice, eating and speaking become natural again, and your confidence returns with your new smile.
