Who is a Good Candidate for Dentures?

Potentially, anyone missing some or all their teeth can benefit from getting dentures, but that doesn’t make them the best solution for every circumstance. Before we proceed, you must consult with one of our dentists to ensure that you’re a good candidate. If we find oral issues that could interfere, like tooth decay or gum disease, we’ll work with you to clear them up before proceeding with your restoration.

Types of Dentures

Many patients are surprised to learn that dentures are customized at every stage of creation to meet their unique needs. Regardless of how many teeth you have remaining, our team can provide prosthetics that contain the correct number of replacements to rebuild your smile based on your individual circumstances.

Once we’ve examined your mouth, we’ll recommend one of the following options based on our findings:

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures typically consist of an acrylic base with metal clips that anchor to healthy teeth in your mouth. They contain the correct number of pontics (artificial teeth) made from a durable resin or ceramic material that’s customized to match the size, shape, and shade of your natural teeth.

Full Dentures

These are the tried-and-true solution for tooth loss and consist of an acrylic base that’s designed to form a tight suction against your gum tissues to stay put throughout the day. They contain an entire arch of teeth to rebuild your entire grin with a single prosthetic.

Implant Dentures

If you’re struggling with ill-fitting dentures or have grown frustrated with frequently removing and reinserting your teeth for cleanings, you might be a good candidate for implant dentures. This involves placing four to eight dental implants into your jawbone that hold a full set of dentures for a more permanent restoration.

The Benefits of Dentures

There are several advantages to getting your dentures in West Jordan, including:

  • One-of-a-kind Design. Your new teeth are customized at every step of their creation to meet your unique needs so they can fit like a glove and look as lifelike as possible.
  • Boost Your Confidence. Filling in the spaces in your smile can alleviate any anxiety about your appearance and enhance your self-esteem.
  • Improve Chewing Ability. A good portion of your original bite force is restored so you can enjoy a variety of wholesome foods to support your oral and overall health.
  • Cost-effective. This option is typically easier on your wallet than alternatives like dental bridges or dental implants.
  • Easy to Clean. Simply remove your dentures twice daily to thoroughly brush and floss them and soak them in water or a cleaning solution at night to keep them looking and feeling pristine!
