Here is Your Complete Guide to Dentures at Twin City Dental
Dentures are an essential option for many patients dealing with tooth loss. At Twin City Dental, we offer customized dentures to restore function and aesthetics in Bangor, ME. Let’s explore the different types of dentures, the process of getting them, and how they can enhance your quality of life.
What Are Dentures and Why Are They Important?
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissue. They help you regain the ability to chew, speak clearly, and smile with confidence. Dentures are not just about improving appearance; they also support facial structure and prevent further oral health complications.
Types of Dentures Offered at Twin City Dental
At Twin City Dental, we offer a range of denture solutions to fit individual needs. Here are the most common types:
Full Dentures: Best for patients missing all teeth in the upper, lower, or both arches. Trust full dentures for comfort and function.
Partial Dentures: Ideal for patients missing some teeth. We carefully anchor these removable dentures to existing teeth.
Implant-Supported Dentures: We tightly secure these dentures with dental implants, offering a more stable and permanent solution compared to traditional removable dentures.
What Is the Process for Getting Dentures?
Getting dentures at Twin City Dental is a personalized experience. It typically involves the following steps:
-
- Initial Consultation: We evaluate your oral health and discuss your goals.
- Impressions: We carefully take precise molds of your gums to ensure a perfect fit.
- Bite: The molds are used to make custom trays which are then used as the “bite appointment” to take precise measurements
- Fitting: Once your custom dentures are ready, we ensure they fit comfortably and make necessary adjustments.
- Follow-up Care: We provide ongoing support to ensure your dentures continue to fit well.
How to Care for Your Dentures
Proper denture care is essential for longevity and oral health. Clean them daily using a soft-bristle brush and denture cleaner. Store them in water when not in use to prevent drying out. Regular checkups at Twin City Dental will ensure your dentures stay in top shape. Our office provides ProTech Concentrated Denture Cleaner to keep them looking their best.
