Dentures at McGann Family Dental: Restore Function and Confidence

Dentures provide a reliable way to replace missing teeth and support your smile’s natural appearance. Whether you need a complete set or partial dentures, McGann Family Dental offers solutions designed for comfort and functionality, helping you regain confidence in chewing, speaking, and smiling.

Types of Dentures

Dentures come in two main types, each tailored to different needs:

• Full (Complete) Dentures: These replace an entire set of upper or lower teeth and are designed to fit securely along the gum line. They’re crafted to resemble natural teeth and can be removed for easy cleaning.
• Partial Dentures: For patients missing only a few teeth, partial dentures fill in the gaps, preserving the alignment and function of the remaining natural teeth.

Both types are removable, allowing flexibility and ease of maintenance. We also offer implant-supported dentures, which anchor to posts in the jaw for a more secure fit.

Benefits of Dentures

Dentures provide a variety of functional and aesthetic advantages:

• Enhanced Appearance: Restores your smile’s natural look and prevents sagging facial muscles.
• Improved Speech and Chewing: Allows for clearer speech and more comfortable eating.
• Cost-Effective Solution: Dentures are an affordable option for restoring missing teeth.
• Easy Maintenance: Removable dentures are simple to clean and care for, maintaining their appearance over time.

The Denture Process: What to Expect

Getting dentures involves several steps to ensure a comfortable fit and natural appearance:

Initial Consultation: During this visit, we’ll evaluate your oral health and take preliminary impressions of your mouth.

Detailed Impressions: Secondary impressions are taken to ensure a precise fit. We’ll also discuss options for the shade and shape of your new teeth.

Try-In Phase: Trial dentures are placed to check for proper alignment, color, and comfort. Adjustments are made as needed.

Final Placement: Once your custom dentures are complete, you’ll receive them and be guided through care instructions.

Over the first few weeks, your mouth will adapt to the new appliance, and any necessary adjustments can be made to enhance comfort.

Caring for Your Dentures

Proper care is essential for long-lasting, comfortable dentures:

• Daily Cleaning: Rinse and brush your dentures daily to remove food particles and plaque.
• Regular Check-Ups: Visit us periodically to ensure a good fit and evaluate any necessary adjustments.
• Handle with Care: Avoid dropping your dentures, as this could lead to cracks or fractures.
