Complete and Partial Dentures
Dentures are removable, artificial teeth that restore your ability to eat properly, as well as support your facial structure and improve your speech. Sometimes patients lose all or most of their teeth due to decay, gum disease or accident. In these cases, Southern Dental in Houston can expertly fit you with complete or partial dentures to give you a beautiful smile again.
Temporary--complete or partial--dentures typically made from acrylic are useful for patients who have either lost or will lose teeth to gum disease or other problems. These keep patients from going toothless during the healing process or while more-permanent dentures are being made. Southern Dental provides up to six months of follow-up care for temporary dentures, which includes all necessary adjustments for proper fit and comfort.
Partials made with a cast metal framework for strength are best for patients who are missing several teeth, but whose remaining teeth are healthy and solid in the bone. Flexible partials made from a flexible nylon-type material are permanent partials that are considered more cosmetic because no metal is used and more comfortable because of increased flexibility.
Complete dentures are for people who are missing all natural teeth. Southern Dental offers the more affordable standard dentures, as well as the premium dentures that provide the highest quality in appearance and comfort. A second feature of premium dentures is the inclusion of a back-up denture which is incorporated in the fee.
Implant-supported dentures are another excellent solution for the patient who desires a more natural chewing experience. These dentures are attached to a dental implant which provides a much higher level of retention in the mouth.
