At Anderson Family Dentistry, we recognize the impact that missing teeth can have on your quality of life, from affecting your confidence to hindering your ability to eat and speak comfortably. That is why we offer dentures and partials in Midlothian, Virginia, as effective solutions for restoring not only the functionality of your mouth but also the appearance of your smile.
Dentures are removable appliances that can replace missing teeth and help restore your smile. If you have lost all of your natural teeth, whether from gum disease, tooth decay or injury, replacing missing teeth will benefit your appearance and your health. That is because dentures make it easier to eat and speak better than you could without teeth — things that people often take for granted.
Complete dentures are used when all the teeth are missing, while partial dentures are employed when some natural teeth remain. A partial denture not only fills in the spaces created by missing teeth, it prevents other teeth from shifting. Each denture or partial is custom-made to fit comfortably in your mouth and match your existing teeth, ensuring a natural look and feel.
The process for receiving dentures or partials begins with a detailed consultation to determine the best type of appliance for your needs. Impressions of your mouth will be taken to create a denture or partial that fits perfectly, providing comfort and restoring function. You may require several appointments to adjust and fine-tune the fit, ensuring that your new teeth feel as natural and comfortable as possible.
Benefits of dentures and partials include:
- Improved ability to chew and speak
- Enhanced appearance and smile
- Support for facial muscles, improving facial structure
- A cost-effective solution for replacing missing teeth
- Increased confidence in social and professional settings
