Dentures

At Hadar Dental, we provide personalized denture solutions designed to restore your smile, confidence, comfort, and ability to chew and speak comfortably. Whether you are replacing several missing teeth or need a complete set of dentures, we will work with you to find the option that best fits your needs and lifestyle.

A denture is a removable dental appliance that replaces missing teeth and can also provide support for the lips and cheeks, helping restore a more natural appearance to your face and smile.

Types of Dentures

Dentures can be designed in several ways depending on the number of teeth being replaced and your individual oral health.

Complete Dentures

A complete denture replaces all of the teeth in an upper or lower arch.

  • Upper dentures typically include an acrylic base that extends across the roof of the mouth for support.
  • Lower dentures are shaped like a horseshoe to allow room for the tongue.

Immediate Dentures

An immediate denture is made before the remaining teeth are removed and can be placed immediately following extractions. This allows you to leave your appointment with replacement teeth while your gums and supporting tissues heal.

As your mouth heals and changes shape, adjustments or a reline may be needed to maintain a comfortable fit.

Implant-Supported Dentures

For patients looking for additional stability, dentures can sometimes be supported by dental implants. Implant-supported dentures can provide greater retention and reduce movement compared with traditional removable dentures.

Implant treatment isn’t right for everyone, so we will evaluate your oral health, bone structure, and overall needs before recommending this option.

Personalized Denture Care

Modern dentures can be customized to provide a natural-looking smile that complements your facial features. The shape, size, color, and arrangement of the replacement teeth can all be considered when designing your denture.

Our goal is to create a restoration that looks natural and helps you feel confident when smiling, speaking, and eating.

Caring for Your Dentures

Dentures require regular care and professional evaluation. Over time, the shape of your gums and underlying bone can naturally change, which may cause your dentures to become loose or uncomfortable.

Depending on your needs, your dentures may eventually require:

  • Adjustments
  • Relining
  • Repairs
  • Replacement

Even if you wear complete dentures, regular dental examinations remain important. Your dentist can check the condition and fit of your dentures as well as examine your gums, oral tissues, and overall oral health.
