Bring Back Your Brilliant Smile with Partial Dentures for Front Teeth

If you’re searching the internet for terms such as “partial dentures near me,” there’s a good chance you or someone you know require tooth restoration. Missing teeth can dramatically impact your oral health, not to mention the appearance of your smile. That’s why Dr. Sanjay Dhir and his team offer effective restorative treatments such as partial and complete removable dentures here at Dhir Dentistry, San Diego, California.

The Benefits of Dentures

Dentures are designed to replace multiple teeth up to possibly both dental arches. There are many misconceptions about dentures, such as they are unreliable and can fall out at any time. The truth is that dentures can be very secure and stable, depending on how well they fit.

At Dhir Dentistry, Dr. Dhir offers precision-fit dentures that fit just like a glove over oral tissues. The teeth are more stable, which assists in lasting, healthy, and efficient speech, chewing, and other oral functions. Plus, we only use the highest-quality materials to simulate the most natural-looking appearance of your gum and teeth.

Immediate Dentures

At Dhir Dentistry, we also distinguish ourselves by offering patients immediate dentures. Those patients missing all their lower or upper teeth can significantly benefit from this option. Never again will you face the public with unsightly gaps in your smile because we can place provisional or temporary dentures just after extracting the remaining teeth.

While wearing the temporary dentures, your oral tissues will be able to heal. You’ll also have a chance to get used to using your dentures for everyday activities such as eating. After the swelling has gone down and your oral tissues have healed, a process typically takes four to six weeks, then we fit your permanent denture.

Essential Things to Remember About Maintaining Dentures

Proper denture maintenance is essential for your dentures’ appearance, function, and oral health. Here are a few things to remember.

• Attend follow-up visits needed to adjust your dentures (never try doing this at home).
• Don’t use DIY denture repair kits and over-the-counter bonding agents without consulting Dr. Dhir.
• It’s best to start by nourishing your body with nutritious yet “forgiving” foods such as steamed veggies and soft fruits.
• Build yourself up to chewier foods, such as granola and apples.
• Use the daily exercises we provide to become used to forming words using your dentures. One example is singing phrases slowly to help speed up the process.
• Dentures require daily cleaning, but please be careful when brushing surfaces not to damage delicate clasps.
• Be sure to brush and floss your remaining natural teeth routinely.
• Soak your dentures each night in warm (not hot) water.
• Never wear dentures overnight.
• Ask Dr. Dhir for recommendations on safe denture cleansers that won’t damage your dentures.
