Thanks to advances in dental materials, technology, and methods of care, it\u2019s easier than ever before to replace missing teeth with the most natural-looking and aesthetically pleasing treatment outcomes. While\u00a0dental implants<\/a>\u00a0and fixed\u00a0bridgework<\/a>\u00a0provide effective and satisfying solutions for missing teeth, removable dentures remain a tried and true method for reestablishing a complete smile.<\/p>

At the office of Laurel Bowie Implant and Cosmetic Dentistry, we fabricate dentures from the highest grade of dental materials for a precise and comfortable fit. Our dentures are meticulously designed to rebuild beautiful smiles and support natural facial contours while enabling patients to speak, smile, and chew with renewed confidence and ease.<\/p>

We\u2019re dedicated to helping patients to enjoy the benefits of a beautiful smile and take pride in offering personalized solutions to address their dental needs, lifestyle, and budget.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

HOW MISSING TEETH AFFECT YOUR SMILE, YOUR HEALTH, AND YOUR OUTLOOK\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

According to recent statistics, it\u2019s estimated that across the country, over 175 million adults have lost at least one tooth, and close to 40 million are missing all of their teeth. In most of these cases, tooth loss is the end result of extensive dental decay, advanced gum disease, a traumatic injury, a congenital anomaly, or associated with a medical condition.\u00a0<\/p>

In addition to the psychological and social consequences having embarrassing gaps in your smile often produce, missing teeth can affect your ability to speak clearly and eat a satisfying and nutritious diet. Left unaddressed, missing teeth can also cause gradual changes to your appearance and the alignment of your remaining teeth. These changes not only affect your bite, but they have the potential to create more unsightly and unhealthy gaps in your smile. Furthermore, without the support of a complete set of teeth, facial contours may also begin to look more sagged and haggard over time.\u00a0<\/p>

While it\u2019s never too late to rebuild a complete and beautiful smile, it\u2019s always best to replace missing teeth sooner than later. Both partial and full dentures from the office of Laurel Bowie Implant and Cosmetic Dentistry offer an effective and satisfying solution for reestablishing a complete smile.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

WHAT ARE DENTURES?\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Dentures are removable appliances that are designed to precisely and comfortably rest on top of the gums that cover the jawbones. They consist of natural-looking artificial teeth set in a supportive base. In addition to offering a cost-effective solution for the replacement of missing teeth, dentures are quite versatile. They can be used to replace either a few teeth that have been lost or all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaws.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

While conventional\u00a0bridgework<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0dental implants<\/a>\u00a0offer fixed solutions for rebuilding complete smiles, partial and full dentures are removable oral appliances. This statement means it\u2019s possible to take dentures out of the mouth to clean and maintain the health of the underlying tissues and any remaining teeth, as well as clean the dentures themselves, or remove them while sleeping.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

You can rest assured that rebuilding your smile is in the best of hands at the office of Laurel Bowie Implant and Cosmetic Dentistry. As skilled and experienced providers of care, we\u2019ll carefully evaluate all aspects of your smile, the health and integrity of any remaining teeth, along with the surrounding tissues and the supporting bone to develop a treatment plan that satisfies the functional and aesthetic requirements of your case.<\/p>

The two main types of removable dentures are full dentures and partial dentures. Which of these types offers the best solution for your smile depends on how many natural teeth are still present in your mouth and the health of these remaining teeth. While a partial denture can offer an effective solution in cases where some sturdy natural teeth remain, you may be a candidate for a complete denture when all the upper or lower teeth are missing or require\u00a0extraction<\/a>.<\/p>

FULL DENTURES<\/h4>

Full dentures, also known as complete dentures, can effectively replace all the upper teeth, lower teeth, or both the upper and lower teeth. As with other types of dental solutions, there\u2019s no one-size-fits-all approach for every case. The ultimate design, fabrication, and insertion of a full denture can vary based upon a patient\u2019s specific needs.<\/p>

CONVENTIONAL FULL DENTURE<\/h4>

This type of denture is fabricated and placed after all of the remaining teeth are removed, and the surrounding tissues have adequately healed. Fabricating a full denture when healing is complete supports a precise and comfortable fit.<\/p>
