functional replacement. Our clinic is equipped with advanced technologies, and our
team of skilled prosthodontists is committed to delivering personalized, precise, and
patient-centered care.
Understanding Complete Denture Treatment:
Complete dentures, often referred to as full dentures or simply “dentures,” are removable dental prosthetics designed to replace an entire set of missing teeth. They serve as an effective solution for individuals who have lost all their natural teeth due to factors such as age, decay, gum disease, or trauma. Complete dentures are custom-made to fit the unique oral anatomy of each patient, offering a comfortable and functional restoration of the entire dental arch.
The Complete Denture Process:
1. Initial Consultation:
• The complete denture treatment process begins with a thorough consultation with one of our experienced prosthodontists.
• During this consultation, the prosthodontist evaluates your oral health, discusses your dental history, and addresses any concerns or preferences you may have.
2. Comprehensive Examination:
• A comprehensive examination of your oral structures, including the gums, jawbone, and any remaining teeth, is conducted.
• Impressions, X-rays, and other diagnostic tools may be used to gather detailed information about your oral anatomy.
3. Treatment Planning:
• Based on the examination and diagnostic findings, a personalized treatment plan is developed.
• The treatment plan outlines the steps involved in creating and fitting your complete dentures.
4. Tooth Extraction (if needed):
• In cases where remaining natural teeth are present, they may need to be extracted to make way for the complete dentures.
• Tooth extraction is performed with careful consideration of patient comfort and optimal healing.
5. Impressions and Bite Registration:
• Precise impressions of your oral structures are taken to create molds for the denture base.
• Bite registration records are obtained to ensure proper alignment and occlusion of the dentures.
6. Trial Dentures (Wax Try-In):
• Before the final dentures are fabricated, trial dentures (wax try-ins) are created to assess the fit, appearance, and function.
• Adjustments can be made to the trial dentures to achieve the desired comfort and aesthetics.
7. Final Denture Fabrication:
• Once the trial dentures meet the patient’s approval, the final dentures are fabricated using high-quality materials.
• The denture teeth are selected to match the natural appearance of a healthy smile.
8. Denture Placement and Adjustment:
• The final dentures are placed in the patient’s mouth, and adjustments are made to ensure proper fit and function.
• Instructions on denture care, maintenance, and potential adjustments are provided.
9. Follow-Up Appointments:
• Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor the patient’s adaptation to the new dentures.
• Any necessary adjustments or refinements are made to enhance comfort and functionality.
Comprehensive Complete Denture Services:
At our clinic, we offer a range of complete denture services to meet the diverse needs of our patients. Our skilled prosthodontists employ advanced techniques and state-of-the-art technology to ensure that each set of complete dentures is crafted with precision and care. Some key complete denture services we provide include:
1. Conventional Complete Dentures:
• Conventional complete dentures are designed for individuals who have lost all of their natural teeth.
• They are crafted after the remaining teeth are extracted, and the gum tissues have healed.
2. Immediate Complete Dentures:
• Immediate complete dentures are fabricated in advance and can be placed immediately after tooth extraction.
• These dentures offer immediate restoration of the smile and oral function during the healing period.
3. Implant-Supported Complete Dentures:
• Implant-supported complete dentures are anchored to dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone.
• This option provides enhanced stability, preventing denture slippage and promoting better chewing efficiency.
4. Overdentures:
• Overdentures are complete dentures that are designed to fit over a few remaining natural teeth or dental implants.
• They offer additional support and stability, combining the benefits of both natural teeth and dentures.
5. Precision Attachments:
• Precision attachments may be incorporated into complete dentures for improved retention and stability.
• These attachments connect the denture to remaining natural teeth or dental implants.
State-of-the-Art Technology for Precision Dentures:
Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the use of state-of-the-art technology throughout the complete denture treatment process. Digital impressions, computeraided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM), and advanced materials contribute to the precision, comfort, and aesthetics of the final dentures.
Digital impressions provide accurate representations of the oral structures without the need for traditional molds. CAD/CAM technology ensures precise fabrication of the denture base and teeth, allowing for optimal fit and function. High-quality materials are selected to create durable and natural-looking complete dentures that mimic the appearance of natural teeth and gums.
Personalized Treatment Plans:
Surgical Expertise and Patient Comfort:
Our team of prosthodontists possesses extensive experience in both prosthodontics and oral surgery, ensuring a seamless and coordinated approach to complete denture treatment. In cases where tooth extractions or implant placement are needed, our clinicians prioritize patient comfort and utilize advanced sedation options.
Local anesthesia, nitrous oxide (laughing gas), or other sedation methods may be employed based on individual needs and preferences. Our clinic is designed to provide a comfortable and supportive environment, and our prosthodontic
professionals are attentive to patient needs throughout the complete denture treatment journey.
Post-Treatment Care and Adjustment:
Following the placement of complete dentures, a crucial phase of post-treatment care begins. Our team provides comprehensive post-treatment care instructions to guide patients through the adaptation period. Adjustments and refinements may be made during follow-up appointments to address any discomfort, enhance fit, or optimize function.
We encourage open communication with our patients to ensure that any concerns or questions are addressed promptly. Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor the stability and effectiveness of the complete dentures over time.
