Partial Dentures
If you are missing most or all of your teeth, Dr. Armstrong and Dr. Tant may recommend dentures in Jacksonville, North Carolina. Dentures are removable appliances that replace your teeth and restore the beauty and functionality of your smile. We provide complete dentures, partial dentures, and implant supported dentures. Complete dentures are used when all of the natural teeth are missing. When some of the natural teeth still remain, partial dentures may be used. Our dentists also provide mini dental implants that support dentures. These types of dentures are fixed in your mouth.
Once our dentists determine which type of denture is best for your needs, they will make several impressions of your jaw and will take measurements of how your jaws relate to each other. Our dentists then create models, wax forms, or plastic patterns in the shape or your future dentures. Our dentists will have you try out these models so that adjustments can be made to the color, shape, and fit. Once all needed adjustments have been made, your denture will be cast. Any final adjustments will be made as necessary.
We invite you to contact our dental office today to learn which type of denture is right for you and to schedule your next appointment.
