Mount Prospect Dentist Reviews Improvements in Modern Dentures
No matter what your age, if you have dentures, it’s not unusual to find that they start to cause discomfort and lose their proper fit. If this sounds familiar, irritation, discomfort, and embarrassing slips when you speak and chew are probably already having an impact on your lifestyle.
The discomfort of ill-fitting dentures may not be the only problem. Since your dentures no longer follow your natural jawline, your face may wrinkle and sag, making you look older. Fortunately, the Mount Prospect Dentist can restore your smile with new, modern dentures.
Enhance Your Smile with Modern Dentures
Today’s dentures are vastly different from the clunky, uncomfortable “false teeth” made years ago. Advances in modern dentistry have changed the way dentures are created. Today’s dentures are fabricated using comfortable materials that are flexible and significantly minimize the kind of irritation that denture-wearers have experienced in the past.
The Mount Prospect Dentist designs beautiful, natural-looking dentures that are custom-made to fit your smile, the shape of a face, and your natural jawline. The result is a set of dentures that are comfortable and look great – dentures that actually enhance your appearance.
How Dentures Work
Dentures are a prosthetic that acts as replacement teeth. There are various types of dentures that are available to give you back a whole and healthy smile:
Partial dentures are designed to act as a placeholder that fills the space left by missing teeth. They perform the important function of preventing surrounding teeth from drifting into the empty space. Of course, they are also an effective aesthetic solution that greatly improves your appearance.
Complete dentures are used when all of your teeth are missing.
Immediate dentures are used when all teeth have been removed. They act as an aesthetic solution that provides the patient with temporary replacement teeth while they wait for their mouth to heal after removal of the teeth.
If you need dentures for the first time or would like to replace your old ill-fitting dentures, please contact our office. We will be happy to arrange a consultation with our dentist to discuss your options.
