Visit Scottsdale, AZ area dentist for more information regarding full and partial dentures

Patients of the Scottsdale, AZ community and beyond who are dealing with missing teeth might feel confused at the various choices available to them through their dentist. At AZ Dental Wellness of Scottsdale, we understand how difficult it can be to choose between restoring the smile. That is why our dentists for dentures, Drs. Rogel Carlos and Marissa P. Mandap encourage patients to consult with a professional about the different solutions used for smile restoration.

What types of dentures are available?

There are several ways a patient might replace missing teeth, including dental implants and dental bridges. However, the most economical and practical for some patients is that of dentures. Dentures come in a few different varieties, and our dental team can help you select the most appropriate for your unique situation. Below are the common types of dentures requested in our facility:

• Partial dentures – a partial denture is used for replacing one or several missing teeth in the smile. These appliances are made with an acrylic and metal framework that fits over the existing teeth for support. False teeth slide into place to restore function and appearance.
• Complete dentures – our full dentures are acrylic appliances made to replace all teeth missing in the dental arch. They include false teeth and gum tissues. These dentures are custom-made for patients to look as natural as possible and are held in place with denture adhesives.
• All-on-four dentures – another alternative is a specialized complete denture that uses dental implants along the gum line to support the appliance. All-on-four dentures are great for patients who miss all their teeth but want a stable and properly functioning solution. All-on-four dentures are the most popular and are perfect for patients with sufficient bone in place.
