Losing all the teeth in an arch changes how you eat, how you speak, and how you feel about smiling. Complete dentures give all of that back. The difference between dentures people love and dentures that sit in a drawer comes down to fit — and fit is where we spend our time.
We take careful measurements and impressions, work with you on the shape and shade of the teeth, and adjust the fit over several visits until it's right. Expect an adjustment period of a few weeks as you relearn eating and speaking — that's normal, and we'll support you through it.
If you've struggled with loose lower dentures, ask about implant-supported dentures: a few strategically placed implants can snap a denture firmly into place — no slipping, no adhesive, and dramatically better chewing power. We'll tell you honestly whether you're a candidate.
Usually 5–10 years. Your mouth changes shape gradually over time, so dentures need periodic relines to keep fitting well — that's maintenance, not failure.
We recommend taking them out at night. Your gums need the rest, and soaking the denture keeps it clean and holding its shape.
