You Deserve A Smile That Reflects Your True Self
Dentures are removable dental appliances crafted to replace missing teeth and restore your smile’s appearance and function. They provide crucial support for facial muscles, helping maintain your facial structure and allowing you to eat and speak more efficiently.
Our dentures are designed with precision and care, ensuring a comfortable fit and natural appearance so you can enjoy your daily life without concern.
At Hayes Family Dentistry, we offer three types of dentures:
- Full Dentures: Designed for individuals who have lost all teeth in an arch, full dentures provide a complete restoration and are customized to fit the contours of your mouth for maximum comfort and stability.
- Partial Dentures: For those missing several teeth but still retaining some natural teeth, partial dentures fill gaps and prevent your remaining teeth from shifting.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: A more permanent solution, these dentures are anchored to dental implants, offering superior stability and function compared to traditional removable options.
Your Journey To A Functional, Beautiful Smile
The process begins with a comprehensive consultation to evaluate your oral health and discuss your needs and preferences. Impressions of your mouth are taken to craft your custom dentures. Fitting appointments ensure optimal comfort and performance. Dr. Kevin Hayes mentions, “We strive to ensure each patient’s denture experience is as seamless and comfortable as possible.”
Because Eating What You Want Matters
What Are Dentures, And What Types Are Available?
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore your smile’s appearance and function. We offer full dentures for complete tooth replacement, partial dentures for filling gaps when some natural teeth remain, and implant-supported dentures for enhanced stability and support.
How Long Does It Take To Get Used To Wearing Dentures?
While everyone adjusts at their own pace, it typically takes a few weeks to become accustomed to wearing dentures. During this time, you may experience minor soreness or changes in eating and speaking habits, but our team will provide guidance to help you adapt comfortably.
How Do I Care For My Dentures?
Proper care involves regular cleaning to prevent plaque buildup and staining. Remove and rinse your dentures after meals, brush them daily with a denture cleaner, and soak them overnight. Keeping your dentures clean will help maintain their appearance and prolong their lifespan.
Will Dentures Affect The Way I Eat?
Dentures may initially require adjustments in eating habits, but with practice, most people can enjoy a wide variety of foods. Start with soft foods and gradually reintroduce harder items, being mindful of chewing both sides evenly to maintain balance.
How Often Should I Have My Dentures Checked Or Replaced?
Regular dental check-ups are important to ensure your dentures remain a comfortable fit and function well. Over time, dentures may need adjustment or replacement due to normal wear or changes in your mouth structure. On average, dentures are replaced every 5-10 years.
