Missing teeth, whether due to tooth decay, gum disease, or trauma, can impact a person’s self-confidence. Many people refrain from smiling and avoid social situations out of fear of embarrassment. Finding a way to restore your smile is very important.
With so many options for replacing teeth, patients can be overwhelmed. Dentures may be the best choice for many because they are less expensive than the alternatives. Dentures are effective in filling the gaps of missing teeth and supporting your facial structure to maintain your appearance.
Depending on the situation, patients may need either partial or full dentures. Partial dentures are utilized for one or more missing teeth and fit in and around existing teeth. Full dentures are used to replace an entire arch of teeth which could be the top, bottom, or both.
Many patients are worried that dentures will be uncomfortable or unnatural. With an extremely skilled and experienced dentist like Dr. Stewart, patients in Lakewood, CO can be sure that their smile will look natural.
Dentures do require an adjustment period as patients become accustomed to the feel and train the muscles in their mouth to work with the dentures. After a few weeks, you will no longer feel awkward with your new, beautiful smile.
Proper care of dentures is essential to ensure they will last and function properly. Make sure to clean them daily and keep them in a safe place to ensure they don’t break
