The Basics about Dentures
Do you have several missing teeth or broken dentures in need of an upgrade? An incomplete smile can make you feel uncomfortable and anxious in social situations, and eating certain foods can be problematic.
High-quality dentures can help you restore your smile and enjoy life to its fullest.
Dentures are dental prosthetics worn over the gums and serve as a replacement for lost teeth. Modern dentures look as natural as real teeth, using an acrylic base and custom-crafted porcelain crowns. They’re also custom-fit to stay in place comfortably, restoring your function and peace of mind.
In addition to providing new restorations, we also offer denture repair, cleaning, and other maintenance services for North Bend and Coos Bay, OR .
Type of Dentures
Above Dental offers three options for your smile.There are various types of dentures depending on the preferred material and number of teeth to be replaced. Our modern dentures in North Bend include:
Full Dentures
For people who have no teeth left, full dentures are the best restoration because they come in a whole dental arch with teeth. This may include a set of upper, lower, or both upper and lower teeth, with the acrylic base covering the entire gum.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are designed for people who still have many healthy teeth left. Instead of extracting all of your teeth, partial dentures can be worn around healthy teeth. They’re attached to metal clasps that hold onto the remaining teeth, staying securely in place.
Valplast Partials
For patients who have allergies to metals or don’t like the feel of metal in their mouth, flexible dentures are a great alternative. Instead of metal clasps, flexible dentures use a thermoplastic (vinyl-like) material. They wrap around your teeth without any chrome or bulky metal.
