Our Oshawa dentists recommend dentures as a reliable solution for replacing missing teeth. As with any dental solution, there are pros and cons to wearing dentures. Deciding if they will work for you will depend on your lifestyle and the goals that you have for your appearance, including the functionality of your smile. If only a few of your teeth are missing, partial dentures are a good solution for replacing them.

Partial dentures are held in place by a plastic base that is the same color as your gums. A metal framework is created in order to secure the base and prevent it from falling out. If you have natural teeth still in place, you cannot wear a full set, so a partial set of dentures is necessary. Partial dentures function differently that cosmetic dentistry solutions because dentures are removable and cosmetic dentistry is permanent.

When all your teeth are missing, complete dentures can replace them. Fortunately, our Oshawa dental office has the latest in denture technology, making dentures more comfortable and natural looking than ever. We can determine if this is the best way to replace your teeth or if an alternative solution will help you to achieve your goals. If you proceed with getting a complete set of dentures, your gums will be healed and ready in eight to 12 weeks after your teeth have been removed. After this time your dentures will fit securely.
