Dentures Plano, TX![]() The Types of DenturesPartial and complete dentures are two different appliances. Partial dentures help when you have a few missing teeth in a row. Unlike a dental bridge, you can remove partial dentures, which some patients prefer. They want the relief of moving the teeth, but enjoy the stability that partial dentures provide as they keep your other healthy teeth from shifting over to take up the empty space. If you lose all of your teeth in an arch (top or bottom) complete dentures can replace them effectively. After we extract all teeth in either arch, we give your mouth time to heal. Each patient differs in the time they need, but it usually averages between eight and twelve weeks. Once your gum tissues heal and can accept dentures, we can create the mold to create your full dentures restoring full function to your mouth. What are Your Limitations?Many people worry about the limitations that dentures cause. While we recognize the value of keeping your natural teeth, we pride ourselves in providing top quality dentures that can give you full functionality. We do caution our patients to avoid excessively hard or sticky foods, but other than that, you should be able to restore your normal function, but it may take a few weeks to a few months to get there. It may take a little while to get used to the dentures. We do suggest that you wear them as often as possible to get your mouth used to them. Removing the dentures at night, though, gives your mouth the reprieve it needs from the dental appliance. Our dentists are great at discussing all aspects of dentures with you so that you are 100% comfortable with your new appliance.
