Dentures

Missing teeth have a significant impact on your quality of life by making everyday tasks such as eating and speaking painful and difficult.

At Bailey Dental Group in Richmond, MI, our dentist can restore your smile with the help of traditional or implant-supported dentures.

Drs. Cynthia E. Bailey and Tess Marie Finley provide full and partial dentures so you can enjoy a functional smile once again...

Dentures Make Life Easier A Trusted Dental Treatment Tailored to Your Needs

If you are suffering from widespread tooth loss, our Richmond, MI, dentistry practice can provide you with a number of solutions to help restore the form and function to your smile. Our caring team of dental professionals offers both partial and full dentures, which offer several benefits.

Look Younger

Dentures from our Richmond, MI, dentistry practice use lifelike materials like porcelain and are designed to look just like natural teeth. By filling the gaps in your smile, you can rejuvenate your look and feel younger.

Improve Oral Function

Both partial and full dentures can give you a fully functioning smile, which in turn allows you to speak clearly, chew properly, and eat all your favorite foods so you can enjoy life to the fullest.

Implants Provide Additional Benefits

Dental implants can support all types of dentures with incredible security. Dentures supported by implants will never shift or click, and have the added benefit of stopping the bone loss that accompanies missing teeth.

Let's take a closer look at how dentures work...

Why Choose Implant-Supported Dentures?

Because of their many unique benefits, implant-supported dentures can provide unmatched stability and jawbone support compared to ordinary dentures. 

There are two primary benefits of dental implants.

Healthier Smile

When you lose a tooth, the bone tissue begins to deteriorate due to a lack of stimulation. Left untreated, this can lead to your teeth shifting and further tooth loss. Implants act as bionic tooth roots, effectively stopping the bone loss that accompanies tooth loss.    

Durable Foundation

The second benefit is the level of stability. An implant-supported denture is anchored directly to your jawbone, meaning it looks and acts just like natural teeth. You can eat foods like steak and apples again and laugh with no reservations.

What Can I Expect?

In general, you can expect that receiving dentures will involve:

The first step is to speak with your dentist to see which dentures are right for you.
The first step is to speak with your dentist to see which dentures are right for you.

Impressions

Your dentist will take impressions of your bite that will be used to guide the fabrication of your dentures. If you are receiving implant-supported dentures, your dentist will take impressions once the implants have completely fused with the bone tissue and they have been fitted with abutment devices that will attach to the dentures.

Fabrication

We will send your impressions to a lab where technicians will craft your dentures based on your impressions. This will take about two weeks, and we will provide a temporary denture in the meantime.

Permanent Dentures

When your permanent dentures are ready, you will return to our Richmond office to have them placed. At this time, your dentist can make any necessary adjustments to achieve comfort and balance.

Getting Used to Your Dentures

It may take some practice in order to master chewing, biting, and enunciating with your new dentures, but you can expect to become acclimated quickly. You will also be provided with instructions for maintaining your dentures to ensure that they last as long as possible and provide maximum benefits.

Oral Hygiene With Dentures

Whether you're wearing full, partial, or implant-supported dentures, it's important to maintain good oral hygiene. Brushing your gums, palate, and tongue helps remove plaque and stimulates circulation, keeping your gums healthy. Follow your dentist's instructions on how to best care for your overall oral health.

  • If you have a full denture, after taking out your denture you should brush your gums, tongue, and palate, or wipe them with a clean washcloth. Ensure any dental adhesive is removed. 
  • If you are wearing a partial denture, remove it before brushing your natural teeth, and clean and massage your gums regularly. 
  • Both partial and full denture wearers should leave their dentures out while sleeping, to prevent swollen or irritated gums. 
  • Patients with implant-supported dentures can use a water flosser or floss designed for implants and bridges to clean between the denture and the gumline.

Caring for Your Dentures

Our mouths change over time. Your dentures will need to be modified for those changes, and for normal wear and tear. You should see your dentist every six months to ensure your dentures are still fitting correctly. However, proper care can increase their longevity. Below are some standard tips on how to care for your dentures:

Stand Over a Soft Surface While Removing

Dentures are fragile and could potentially break if dropped. Taking them out over a towel or a bowl of water can help prevent them from breaking if you accidentally drop them.

Do Not Let Your Dentures Dry Out

Place them in denture cleaner or lukewarm water when you are not wearing them. Never place your dentures in extremely hot or cold water, as this could warp their shape.

Brush Your Dentures Daily

A denture cleaner or an ultrasonic cleaner can help care for your dentures, but it does not replace brushing. Brushing your dentures helps remove food deposits and plaque.

Talk to Your Dentist

If your dentures break or crack, don't try to fix them yourself. Imperfect repairs can damage the denture, or your gums or tongue. Call your dentist immediately for an urgent appointment.
