At My Family Dental, we understand that losing teeth can be a challenging experience. It not only affects your ability to eat and speak but also impacts your self-confidence and overall oral health. That's why we're committed to providing our patients with the best possible solutions for replacing missing teeth, including dentures.
Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They support the cheeks and lips, helping you maintain a natural facial appearance. With advancements in dental materials and technology, today's dentures look more natural and feel more comfortable than ever before.
Dentures are designed to fit snugly over the gums, providing support for your cheeks and lips. They consist of artificial teeth set in a base made from acrylic resin or a combination of various materials. The base is designed to closely match the color of your gums.
The two main types of dentures are full dentures and partial dentures. Full dentures replace all the teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, while partial dentures fill gaps left by missing teeth and prevent remaining natural teeth from shifting out of position.
At My Family Dental, we offer various types of dentures to meet our patients' unique needs. Here's an overview of the different options:
Full dentures can replace all the teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. They are typically made from acrylic resin and may have a metal framework for added stability.
Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. They consist of one or more artificial teeth attached to a metal framework that clasps onto nearby natural teeth for support.

With advances in dental materials and technology, today’s dentures are more comfortable and realistic-looking than ever before.
Whether you wear partial or complete dentures, it’s essential to see the dentist for routine care. Besides checking the fit and condition of your dentures and making any necessary adjustments, you’ll also receive a comprehensive exam to check on the health of any remaining teeth as well the soft and hard tissues in and around the oral cavity.
A same-day denture offers an accelerated design and fabrication process that allows a patient to go from impression taking to denture insertion in a single day.
For patients who don’t want to wait after having teeth extracted, an immediate denture can be inserted the same day your teeth are removed. Sometime later you may need the denture reline to address any changes in its fit once the extraction sites have completely healed.
While no one wants to drop or break a partial or complete denture, accidents do happen. The good news is that in some cases, your partial or complete denture is reparable. It all depends on the extent of the damage. Don’t hesitate to contact our office if you’ve broken or damaged your denture. We’re happy to help.
The simple act of taking your partial denture in and out can cause certain types of metal clasps to loosen over time. When you come in for your checkup visit or contact our office for an adjustment, we’ll assess the fit of your partial and tighten the clasps for improved stability and comfort.
While rebuilding a complete smile is a worthwhile investment, our office is sensitive to the costs involved in dental care. We customized care and will discuss which treatment options address your needs, lifestyle, and budget. How much a new denture will cost depends on the type of the prosthesis, its design, and the materials used to fabricate the supportive base, teeth, and clasps or precision attachments. Dentures that include the placement of dental implants for added retention and stability typically involve additional costs.
If you have dental insurance, your coverage may include a new or replacement set of dentures. Our staff is happy to review your coverage with you to ensure you are maximizing your insurance benefits while minimizing any out of pocket expenses.
At the office of My Family Dental, we provide an extensive range of dental services, including the latest and most effective methods to help patients with missing teeth rebuild complete and beautiful smiles.
