Depending on the density of your jawbone, you may not be an eligible candidate for anchored dentures. With traditional dentures, we can create natural-looking full or partial restorations to replace missing teeth. We take extra care to fabricate durable and realistic dentures that are customized to fit snugly and comfortably. Dentures can help to improve your ability to eat and speak, as well as create a fuller, more youthful facial appearance.
Dentures are prosthetic devices designed to replace missing teeth, improving the wearer's ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. At Dental Professionals of Fair Lawn, we recognize the importance of these devices in restoring both functionality and aesthetics to our patients' lives. Our dentures are custom-made to match the natural appearance of your teeth, ensuring a comfortable and seamless fit.
At Dental Professionals of Fair Lawn, we offer a variety of denture options to meet the diverse needs of our patients. Complete dentures are suitable for individuals who have lost all of their teeth in an arch, while partial dentures are designed for those who still retain some of their natural teeth. Furthermore, we provide the option of implant-supported dentures for enhanced stability and comfort, thereby improving chewing and speech.
The process of getting dentures at Dental Professionals of Fair Lawn begins with a detailed consultation to discuss your specific needs and expectations. Impressions of your mouth will be taken to create dentures that fit perfectly, followed by a series of fittings to ensure maximum comfort and functionality. Our team of dental professionals is committed to guiding you through each step, ensuring a smooth and supportive experience.
Proper care is essential to maintaining the longevity and appearance of your dentures. We educate our patients on the best practices for denture care; this includes daily brushing, soaking dentures overnight in a cleaning solution, and avoiding the use of abrasive cleaning materials. Additionally, we recommend regular dental check-ups to ensure the dentures remain in optimal condition and to make any necessary adjustments.
Choosing Dental Professionals of Fair Lawn for your denture needs means entrusting your oral health to a team of highly skilled and compassionate dental professionals.
