Dentures

Get Your Smile Back With Dentures!

When you’ve lost most of your teeth, smiling, eating, drinking, and talking can all become difficult and exhausting.

The Traditional Style

For patients needing a full mouth replacement, we offer the traditional style. The traditional set will fit precisely to your mouth to ensure comfort and stability. We make sure to adjust every set of dentures that we supply in every way you want, and we’re happy to continue making adjustments as time goes on!

The traditional style fits on the top and bottom gums. They are generally held in place by suction or denture creams designed to help them adhere.

When you come to our Shorewood office for dentures , we’ll start by removing any remaining teeth. We’ll then take an impression of your mouth so that our dental lab can build you a perfect new set of denture! This usually takes several weeks, and once we get your denture back, we’ll have you return for a final adjustment and fitting. Then, you’re free to enjoy your new teeth with confidence!

Partial Dentures

For patients who have lost several teeth but are otherwise in good oral health, we can make a partial denture that will replace your lost teeth while keeping the remaining teeth intact. Partial dentures are generally made of resin which is attached to metal. The metal helps create a precise fit when worn, as your existing teeth are used to support your partial denture.

Much like getting a full set, we’ll take an impression that our lab will use to create your partial denture. Once we get them back, we’ll have you return and fit them to you perfectly!

Implant Retained

Are you unhappy with their current loose set or wanting an additional level of stability and security? At Shorewood Family Dental Care, we’re glad to offer implant-style dentures! This great procedure will give your denture a new life through the stability, security, and comfort if a dental implants!

The procedure involves the placement of several dental implants (usually about four) into your jaw. Upon placement, we attach a bar or a series of metal balls to the tops of your implants. These pair up to a series of clasps or sockets on your dentures. So when you put them in, they’re holding securely in place! This great system can also be built using your existing set, so there is no need for a new one!
