Regain Your Smile with Comfortable, Custom Dentures
Dentures (Full and Partial)
Tooth loss can significantly impact your confidence and dental health. However, advancements in dentistry provide practical solutions, such as full and partial dentures. These appliances restore your ability to chew, speak clearly, and smile confidently.
At Encompass Dental Studio, our team takes a straightforward, patient-focused approach to restorative dentistry. Serving the Columbus and Central Ohio area, our team provides high-quality dentures tailored to your needs. Whether you’re missing several teeth or need a complete tooth replacement solution, we’re here to help you regain the look of your smile and restore your oral function with precision and care.
Full Dentures: A Complete Solution for Tooth Loss
Full dentures, also known as complete dentures, are designed for patients who have lost all their natural teeth in the upper or lower arch.
What to Expect with Full Dentures
The process begins with measurements and impressions of your mouth, ensuring a comfortable fit for your final denture. After any necessary extractions, your gums will need time to heal before we can place your conventional dentures. During this time, immediate dentures may be provided to maintain the appearance of your face and assist with the transition.
After receiving the final product, denture wearers often experience irritation or inflammation along the soft tissues. However, you can call our office, and we’ll make additional adjustments to help alleviate soreness.
Benefits of Full Dentures
Full dentures provide numerous benefits, enhancing your quality of life in several aspects:
- Enhanced Chewing: Full dentures improve your ability to chew food thoroughly, promoting better digestion and nutritional intake.
- Improved Appearance: By replacing missing teeth and restoring facial volume, full dentures rejuvenate the appearance of your smile and facial structure.
- Clear Speech: Full dentures improve speech clarity, making articulating words and engaging in conversations easier.
Full dentures are an investment in oral health and well-being. They allow you to enjoy a fulfilling life with a radiant smile.
Partial Dentures: Filling the Gaps in Your Smile
If you have remaining teeth on the upper or lower jaw, partial dentures offer a practical and effective solution to replace missing adjacent teeth. These removable appliances use clasps to anchor to your natural teeth, providing a secure fit.
Types of Partial Dentures
Several factors, such as the number of missing teeth, their location, and any specific preferences, can affect the selection of the ideal partial denture for you.
- Removable Partial Dentures: These dentures attach to your remaining teeth with clasps or metal frameworks. They are easy to remove for cleaning.
- Flexible Partial Dentures: Made from a lightweight, flexible material, these are an excellent option for patients seeking enhanced comfort.
Our dentists will guide you in selecting the best type of partial denture based on your needs and the health of your remaining teeth.
Why Choose Partial Dentures?
Partial dentures are an excellent choice for Central Ohio individuals missing multiple teeth. These dentures offer a range of benefits, making them a popular option to improve oral function and aesthetics:
- Preserve the alignment of your remaining teeth
- Improve chewing and speaking ability by using false teeth
- Prevent further tooth loss caused by shifting teeth
Our Encompass Dental Studio team ensures your new dentures blend seamlessly with your existing natural teeth, creating a harmonious, natural-looking smile.
Implant-Supported Dentures: Advanced Stability and Comfort
Implant-supported dentures are an excellent choice for patients seeking enhanced stability and long-term durability. This innovative solution combines the benefits of dental implants with the functionality of dentures, providing unparalleled support for the arches of your smile.
How Implant-Supported Dentures Work
Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone and act as anchors for dentures. Once the implants integrate with the bone, abutments are attached to hold the appliance firmly. Depending on your preference and oral health needs, dentures can be fixed or removable.
Advantages of Implant-Supported Dentures Over Conventional Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer significant benefits over traditional dentures, primarily due to their secure anchoring system:
- Enhanced Stability: The implants eliminate slippage or movement, restoring natural chewing function and improving speech.
- Preserved Bone Health: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss, which is a common concern with tooth loss. This helps maintain your facial structure and prevent a sunken appearance.
- Improved Comfort: Implant-supported dentures eliminate sore spots and discomfort often associated with traditional dentures. They offer a stable and snug fit.
Our cutting-edge technology ensures a precise fit and seamless integration of your implant-supported dentures, offering exceptional durability and comfort.
