Who is a Good Candidate for Dentures?

Almost anyone who has lost permanent teeth can be considered a candidate for dentures. If you’re unable to chew your food, enunciate certain words or sounds, or are avoiding social interactions due to tooth loss then you could potentially benefit from prosthetics.

Before Dr. Robison can restore your smile, however, you must first have a consultation with him. He’ll take this time to examine the condition of your teeth and gums to ensure that this method is the best option for you.

Types of Dentures

Dentures are more versatile than many people realize and can be applied in different ways to rebuild your grin. Dr. Robison uses high-quality, tooth-colored materials to ensure they look and feel natural. They’ll be completely customized just for you so that they fit like a glove so in time, you might even forget that you’re wearing them.

After his examination, Dr. Robison will recommend one of the following types:

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are intended to replace several missing teeth and are anchored in place with metal clasps that connect with your remaining ones. They’re color-matched to your grin’s natural hue so that no one can tell the difference between your artificial teeth and the ones you were born with! They’re intended to be removable so that you can easily take them out for cleaning.

Full Dentures

If you’re missing all or most of your teeth, then you would probably do best with full dentures. These replace your entire arch and are made with lifelike materials to enhance your appearance. They’re created to form a firm suction against your gums to remain in place all day long but are intended to be taken out for cleaning and to soak at night.

Implant Dentures

If your jawbone is too weak or flat and you’re unable to fully support traditional dentures, then Dr. Robison might recommend this cross-over with dental implants. Several titanium rods will be strategically placed directly into your jawbone. Once your dentures are attached to them, they’re considered ‘permanent’ and can only be removed by a professional.

The Benefits of Dentures

There are several benefits to getting dentures in Canton, such as:

• You’ll boost your confidence since the dentures will look very similar to natural teeth.
