At Michael J. Watson DDS, we offer high-quality dentures to restore your smile and improve oral functionality. Whether you’ve lost several teeth or are missing an entire arch, dentures provide an effective, natural-looking solution. Our office in Millcreek, UT, offers several denture options to meet your unique needs, including complete dentures, partial dentures, and implant-supported dentures.
Types of Dentures
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures, also known as full dentures, are ideal for patients who have lost all of their upper or lower teeth. These removable prosthetics replace a full arch of teeth, allowing you to chew, speak, and smile with confidence. At Michael J. Watson DDS, we custom design your dentures to ensure a comfortable fit and natural appearance, helping you regain your smile’s functionality and aesthetics.
Full dentures are made from durable, high-quality materials, and we ensure the color and shape match your natural gums and facial structure. If you’ve recently undergone tooth extractions or have experienced significant tooth loss, full dentures may be the right solution to restore your complete smile.
Partial Dentures
For patients who still have some natural teeth remaining, partial dentures offer a great solution. A partial denture is designed to fill in the gaps created by missing teeth, while your remaining natural teeth provide support. These dentures are secured using clasps that attach to your natural teeth, providing stability and comfort.
Our team will custom-fit your partial dentures to blend seamlessly with your remaining teeth, ensuring that your smile remains both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This option is a great choice for those looking to avoid dental bridges or patients who prefer a removable solution.
Implant-Supported Dentures
For a more secure and permanent option, implant-supported dentures offer the best of both worlds. These dentures are anchored to dental implants that are surgically placed into your jawbone. Implant-supported dentures are more stable than traditional dentures, providing a secure fit that doesn’t shift or move while you eat or speak.
Implant-supported dentures can be used for both full and partial dentures, depending on your needs. They offer the added benefit of preventing bone loss, which can occur when teeth are missing. With this option, you get the durability of implants combined with the convenience of dentures, resulting in a solution that looks and feels like natural teeth.
Denture Adjustments and Repairs
Over time, your dentures may require adjustments or repairs to ensure a comfortable fit. Our team provides comprehensive care, including adjustments and repairs, to keep your dentures functioning properly. If your dentures become loose or uncomfortable, don’t hesitate to reach out to us for assistance.
The Denture Process at Michael J. Watson DDS
The process of getting dentures begins with a thorough consultation, during which we evaluate your oral health and discuss your options. Once we determine the best type of denture for you, we’ll take detailed measurements and impressions to ensure a custom fit. For implant-supported dentures, our team uses advanced dental technologies like 3D imaging and Cone Beam CT scans to precisely plan your implant placement.
We’ll also work with you throughout the adjustment period to ensure your new dentures are comfortable and functional. You’ll receive guidance on how to care for your dentures to ensure they last for many years.
