Typically, we recommend dentures for patients who:

  • Are missing several or all of their teeth along an arch
  • Have sustained bone loss that prevents them from getting dental implants
  • Are dedicated to maintaining good oral health
  • Have treated any lingering dental issues, like cavities and gum disease

Types of Dentures

The type of denture that your dentist in Arlington may suggest will depend on your unique tooth loss situation. Based on our findings during your initial consultation, we’ll walk you through our recommended restorative treatments and explain how they can help you achieve a complete smile again.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures typically contain a strategically-designed metal base that fits between your existing teeth. This base holds a gum-colored acrylic foundation that houses beautiful, lifelike replacement teeth. Once the partials are placed in your mouth, they’ll complete your smile and prevent your surrounding teeth from drifting out of place down the road.

Full Dentures

Full dentures are specially designed to harness the power of natural suction when placed over the gums, allowing them to stay firmly in place while you eat and speak. The base is made of a natural-looking, gum-colored acrylic that holds replacement teeth in place.

Implant Dentures

For patients who are looking for a longer-lasting, more natural-feeling solution for tooth loss, we also offer implant dentures that are secure to dental implant posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone. This allows them to not only restore the visible surface of teeth, but also the root structure, preventing jawbone erosion over time and preserving your natural facial structure.

The Benefits of Dentures
