Dentures are removable tooth replacements. Full dentures are used to replace all missing natural teeth, while partial dentures fill up gaps and facilitate chewing.

Partial & Full Dentures

What Are Full Dentures?

Tooth decay and gum disease, for example, might become uncontrollable at times. Your remaining teeth on one or both arches may be removed due to this. Full dentures are cost-effective and efficient in restoring your smile and function.

A full denture comprises a thin acrylic base that lies on the gum tissue and is gum-colored. Replacement teeth made of porcelain or acrylic that are incorporated into the base have the appearance of natural teeth. Edgerly Dentistry and our dentists in Bridge City, TX have the expertise to assist you in choosing the teeth that will appear the most natural. This also allows you to personalize your appearance, whether you want a “new” grin or wish to redo your hair.

What Are Partial Dentures?

Whether you’ve lost one or many teeth, the gaps in your mouth might make chewing and smiling more difficult. Partial dentures offer a cost-effective way to replace lost teeth, fill in gaps, improve chewing abilities, and regain your smiling confidence. A partial denture will also prevent your natural teeth from shifting, reducing the chance of future tooth loss.

A thin metal framework with tiny metal clasps wraps around the gum line of existing teeth is used in most partial dentures. This results in a smooth, non-bulky appearance. The framework is supported by your natural teeth, making it safe, secure, and simple to use and remove the device.

Remember that your mouth and needs are unique, and Edgerly Dentistry collaborates with expert technicians to design a practical, pleasant, and attractive solution.

FAQ's

What are partial dentures and how do they work?

What are full dentures and when are they needed?

Full dentures replace all of the upper or lower teeth when natural teeth are missing or must be extracted. The base rests comfortably on your gums and gives you back the ability to speak and eat with confidence. Talk to our team at Edgerly Dentistry about full denture options.

How long does it take to get dentures made?

Will dentures feel natural right away?

New dentures may feel unusual at first as your mouth adjusts, but most people adapt within a few weeks. We will guide you through tips to help with comfort, speaking, and eating during the transition. Reach out for support through your denture adaptation journey.

Can I eat normally with dentures?
