Dentures

You can lose your teeth for a variety of reasons. You might knock out a tooth while playing sports. Or you may require several teeth removed due to dental disease.

Restore Your Smile
Whether you only need a few teeth replaced or many, Dr. Yates has the equipment and skills to restore your smile.

Types of Dentures

Partial Dentures
If you still have a few teeth in great condition, our dentists will work with what you have to create stunning partial dentures. We’ll match your replacement teeth to your remaining teeth, so the color, shape, and size all look as natural as possible. And, we’ll use your remaining teeth as an anchor to hold your removable partial dentures in place and to prevent your surrounding teeth from shifting.

Complete Dentures
If you’ve lost all your teeth, we’ll do everything we can to recreate your beautiful smile. With complete dentures, we’ll create custom teeth that look and function like normal teeth. We’ll position your replacements so they sit where your old teeth used to be, effectively minimizing your adjustment time. However, you may need multiple appointments to ensure a seamless fit with your mouth and gums.

Implant-Supported Dentures
It is also possible to use dental implants to support a denture. Implant-supported dentures significantly increase the stability of a denture. Many times an upper denture will no longer need to cover the roof of your mouth.  This makes the upper denture seem much more natural. It improves chewing and speech significantly. Dr. Yates will be happy to discuss how this option could benefit you.
