What Are Dentures?

Dentures are restorations that recreate the surface area of missing or decaying teeth with prosthetics. Dentures consist of prosthetic teeth set in a soft, comfortable acrylic base that mimics the appearance of healthy gum tissue. We offer different types of dentures to fit your specific oral health and lifestyle needs. Our team is passionate about restoring your smile with dentures that look natural. That's why we carefully match the size, shape, and color of the prosthetic teeth to blend beautifully with your smile.

Types of Dentures

Protecting your oral health is our priority, so we offer different types of dentures to fit your specific needs and boost your dental health. Our team will carefully evaluate your dental structures, including the density of your jawbone, before recommending restoration options. Here are some of the dentures we offer:

  • Partial Dentures: Partial dentures are a great solution if you have a few healthy teeth remaining. We want you to keep your natural teeth for as long as possible, and partial dentures fit comfortably around your teeth and provide prosthetic teeth where they're needed.
  • Traditional Dentures: Traditional dentures, or conventional dentures, combine customized prosthetic teeth affixed in a comfortable acrylic base that looks like healthy gums. The dentures are held in place by suction or denture adhesive or paste.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures: Implant-supported dentures, also called permanent dentures, consist of prosthetic teeth, a soft acrylic base, and implant posts. The titanium posts are strategically placed to anchor the dentures securely so they don't fall out. The implant posts provide the same function as your natural tooth roots and stimulate your jawbone, preventing bone loss and preserving your facial structures.

Our Process for Complete and Partial Dentures

We take pride in creating custom dentures that renew the aesthetics of your smile and improve your oral health. Our team is committed to meeting your needs. That's why we take the time to get to know you and ask questions to ensure we understand your concerns and smile goals. We'll perform a thorough exam of your teeth, gums, and jaws, including taking digital impressions and panoramic x-rays to ensure we accurately address your oral health needs and craft a treatment plan tailored to you.

If you select conventional full or partial dentures, we'll use our in-house lab to create your custom dentures. Our team will demonstrate how to wear, remove, and clean your dental restorations. We'll provide helpful tips and insight to improve the longevity of your dentures.

Those who qualify for implant-supported or permanent dentures will visit a trusted specialist who places the implant post. You'll take time to heal and allow the post to fuse with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration. Once the healing is complete, our team will attach your custom dentures, resulting in a full, functional, and beautiful smile.

Dentures FAQs

Rejuvenating your smile can seem like a complicated process, and it's normal to have questions. That's why we encourage you to share your questions and concerns, and we are happy to provide the answers you need to make an informed decision regarding your treatment plan. Here are some of the most common questions we receive about traditional and permanent dentures in Gulf Breeze:

How long do dentures last?

Dentures are durable and can last a decade or longer. To improve the longevity of your dentures, follow the dentist's instructions to clean and maintain your dental restoration.

Yes. Dentures recreate your natural bite pattern, but the prosthetic teeth are vulnerable to damage if you chew on hard foods like ice, hard candies, and certain nuts.

Traditional dentures are removed once a day, typically in the evening, cleaned with denture toothpaste, and allowed to soak overnight in denture solution to keep the acrylic soft and comfortable. If you have implant-supported dentures, you'll brush and floss them twice daily, just like your natural teeth.
