Rediscover Your Smile with Full Dentures

Losing all of your teeth or having non-functional teeth can significantly affect your daily life, making speaking and eating a challenge. But at King Dental, we can restore your smile and functionality with full dentures, offering you a new lease on life.

Understanding Full Dentures

Full dentures provide an arch of false teeth, designed to replace a complete arch of missing or irreparable natural teeth. These removable prostheses  restore the ability to chew food and create a beautiful, natural smile.

Your Journey to Obtaining Dentures

The road to your new smile involves a few straightforward steps:

  1. Tooth Removal: Any remaining teeth are extracted.
  2. Impressions: We take accurate impressions of your gums, sending them to a professional lab where your final prosthesis is crafted.
  3. Temporary Dentures: You'll receive a set of temporary dentures, ensuring you can eat and speak normally during the waiting period.
  4. Final Fitting: Once your custom dentures are ready, return for a final fitting and adjustments to ensure optimal comfort and function.

Navigating Post-Procedure Care

Proper denture care is essential. Remember to:

  • Remove and clean your dentures nightly.
  • Use denture adhesive as needed.  Some patients will not need to use any adhesive.
  • Continue good oral hygiene, including brushing your gums.
  • Schedule twice a year check-ups at King Dental.

Embrace the Benefits of Full Dentures

Full dentures promise myriad advantages:

  • Regain a full set of functioning teeth.
  • Enjoy your favorite foods again.
  • Enhance your speech clarity.
  • Boost your confidence with a natural-looking smile.
