Dentures & Partials

A Smile Full of Confidence

There are many things we take for granted every day, including strong, healthy teeth. Any number of reasons can cause tooth loss including excessive decay, accident, injury, and aging. Missing teeth make it difficult to eat to eat the nutritious foods you love, affect your ability to speak clearly, even stop you from smiling. Don’t let missing teeth steal your confidence, our Greensboro dental office offers dentures, partials, and implant supported dentures.

Dentures & Partials

A partial denture, commonly referred to as simply a partial, consists of multiple teeth on a gum colored base. The teeth are not in a row, but rather spread across the base to fit like a puzzle with your existing teeth. A partial is normally secured with clips or brackets, but unlike a bridge, a partial is removable. A full denture is a complete top or bottom row of teeth mounted on a gum-colored base. Dentures can be closed or open palate, and they may require denture adhesive to hold them in place.

Implant Supported Dentures

Dentures aren’t without their challenges, as many of our patients know. It can take time to get the right fit, which means slipping, or a prosthesis that extends too far into the palate until adjustments can be made. At Greensboro Smiles, we provide implant supported dentures so that our patients can enjoy a more secure, and comfortable, smile.

During a short oral surgery, small titanium will be placed in the jawbone. As the implant heals, your bone naturally fuses with the bone creating a solid foundation. Your custom-made dentures will simply snap onto the posts, firmly anchoring your prosthesis. You’ll feel the difference immediately and enjoy many befits including:

  • Stops the discomfort of slipping.
  • Secure fit means confidence to eat what you like.
  • Your teeth will smile with you, not ahead of you.
  • Eliminates a closed palate. More taste, less gagging.
