If you're considering dentures and live in or around Tyler, TX, we invite you to come for a consultation to see how we can help you.

What Are Dentures?

Dentures are dental restorations that take the place of missing teeth. They are commonly made from porcelain or acrylic and are designed to look like natural teeth while still being comfortable in your mouth.

What Type of Dentures Are Right for Me?

Complete dentures replace all of the teeth in your upper or lower jaw. They can be made to look identical to your natural teeth and are an excellent choice to improve your smile's appearance, function, and overall health. There are two kinds of complete dentures: immediate and conventional.

Immediate Dentures

It is sometimes necessary to remove all remaining teeth before placing dentures. Immediate dentures are used immediately after tooth extraction until you're ready to receive your conventional dentures. If you are concerned about your appearance and don't want to go without teeth while you heal, immediate dentures are a great solution.

Conventional Dentures

Conventional dentures are custom-made from impressions of your mouth, taken after any remaining teeth are extracted, and the area heals. While they may take longer to fit and produce, they will match the details of your mouth, like the color, size, and shape of your natural teeth and gums, to fit you perfectly.

Removable Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are a great tooth replacement option if you're missing several teeth. They are usually made of prosthetic teeth that are attached to metal frameworks. They help improve your oral health by preventing your remaining teeth from shifting into the empty space.

Implant-Supported Dentures

An implant-supported denture is supported by dental implants. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums, an implant-supported denture is securely anchored in place by one or more dental implants. This gives the denture greater stability and prevents it from slipping or moving around in the mouth. Simon Family Dentistry offers two kinds of implant dentures: overdentures and fixed hybrids.

Implant Overdentures

Implant overdentures are removable restorations that take the place of your missing teeth. They are incredibly secure and stable and deliver very natural-looking results because they snap onto 2-6 dental implants for support.

Fixed Hybrid Dentures

Fixed hybrid dentures are used to replace an entire arch of missing teeth. They are anchored to implants and cannot be removed by the patient. They are an excellent option for patients who want restorations that feel more like their own teeth.
