Dentures/Partial Dentures

For many, the decision to get dentures is a difficult one. Drs. Woodside & Sentz work to make the process easier and more pleasant for patients. Those who need partial dentures can visit the dentist in order to receive natural looking dentures.

Dentures have progressed a great deal in recent years, and Drs. Woodside & Sentz stay abreast of the latest advancements. By utilizing the best technology and procedures, the doctors are able to fit their patients with dentures or partial dentures that are comfortable and natural looking.

The Procedure

When a patient needs partial dentures, the dentist will examine him and prepare his mouth for the procedure. Before the dentures can be constructed, some teeth will likely have to be pulled. If a tooth is loose, it will be removed and partial dentures will be put in its place.

When you choose partial dentures, you might receive implants in order to stabilize the dentures. The implants used to stabilize dentures are smaller and cost 50-70% less than traditional implants.

After the mouth is ready, the dentures are constructed. Dentures will be made to comfortably fit over the teeth that remain in the mouth, as well as any implants that may have been used.

What to Expect

When someone is fitted for dentures, they will likely undergo an adjustment period. If your dentures or partial dentures do not feel normal at first, do not worry. You will need to get used to your dentures. As you get used to them, they will begin to feel normal.

When your dentures begin to feel normal, you will notice how they look and feel like natural teeth. You will regain functionality. In addition, due to advancements made in denture care, you will enjoy greater stability than denture wearers in the past.
