How to Choose the Right Dentures for Your Needs
With so many denture options available — complete, partial, implant-supported, flexible, digital — how do you choose? Comfy Denture & Hearing Clinic guides you through the decision.
Choosing the right type of denture is an important decision that depends on several factors: how many teeth you're missing, the condition of your remaining teeth and jawbone, your lifestyle and dietary needs, your aesthetic preferences, and your budget. At Comfy Denture & Hearing Clinic, we guide every patient through this decision with patience and expertise.
Complete dentures are the right choice when all teeth in an arch are missing or need to be removed. They rest on the gum tissue and are held in place by suction and the natural contours of your mouth. Modern complete dentures are more comfortable and natural-looking than ever before.
Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. They fill in the gaps and are supported by both the gum tissue and the remaining teeth. Cast metal partials are the most durable option; flexible partials are more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing; acrylic partials are the most economical choice.
Implant-supported dentures are the most stable option and are recommended for patients who want the closest thing to natural teeth. They require a surgical procedure to place the implants, but the result is a denture that doesn't move, doesn't require adhesive, and helps preserve the jawbone.
Digital dentures offer the advantages of CAD/CAM precision and a stored digital file for easy replacement. They're an excellent choice for patients who want the best in modern denture technology. Contact Comfy Denture & Hearing Clinic at any of our three locations to schedule a consultation and discuss which type of denture is right for you.
