\"SmilingIf you\u2019ve ever taken a physics class, you\u2019re likely familiar with the idea of displaced pressure. When weight is focused on a small area, it absorbs more pressure. When splayed across a larger area, the pressure is diminished. For instance, standing on a frozen pond increases the risk of breakage compared with laying down on the same pond. Consider the increasing amount of pressure your teeth absorb as you experience tooth loss. A single missing tooth displaces pressure onto surrounding teeth, which can lead to changes in the way the bite fits together, excess wear on remaining teeth, or further tooth loss. Patients with numerous missing teeth are at increasingly higher risks for damage as individual teeth have to absorb more and more pressure while chewing. That\u2019s why replacing lost teeth is so important. <\/span>Dentures<\/span><\/a> and partials are two of the most popular restoration options for patients with advanced tooth loss. <\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

Partial Dentures for Multiple Tooth Replacement<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re missing numerous consecutive or nonconsecutive teeth along an arch, partial dentures, sometimes referred to simply as partials, are a great tooth replacement option. Using a gum colored base to support all of the replacement teeth, the partial is custom crafted to fit snuggly between remaining healthy teeth. Metal clasps hold partials firmly in place. <\/span><\/p>\n

Complete Dentures for Full Mouth Restoration<\/span><\/h2>\n

Like partials, full dentures use a gum-colored base material to support the replacement teeth. Because there are no remaining healthy teeth to anchor them, the full denture base is molded to sit firmly against the gums. This creates suction that holds the denture in position. <\/span><\/p>\n

Dental Implant-Retained Prosthetics <\/span><\/h2>\n

Patients who want to improve the comfort, stability, and longevity of their dental restorations may want to consider dental implant-retained partial and full dentures. Traditional, removable dentures only restore those parts of the lost tooth visible above the gum line. Without the tooth root to anchor these prosthetics and stimulate the soft tissue and jawbone, patients deal with slipping dentures and changing facial shapes over time. Once the dentures begin to slip, patients will need to have them resized, refitted, or completely remade. Implant supported prosthetics provide natural looking and feeling tooth replacement that can last a lifetime. <\/span><\/p>\n
