Dentures

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They are crafted from high-quality resin and artificial teeth to replicate the natural appearance and function of your smile.

Dentures may be recommended if you’ve lost teeth due to:

• Tooth decay
• Gum disease
• Facial injuries
• Extensive tooth damage

1. Replacing missing teeth is crucial to maintaining oral health and functionality. Without proper replacement, you may experience:

   • Facial Muscle Sagging: Missing teeth lead to a sunken appearance as facial muscles lose support.
   • Difficulty in Chewing and Speaking: Dentures restore your ability to eat and speak comfortably.
   • Uneven Bite and Digestion Issues: Missing teeth can impact chewing efficiency, leading to digestive problems.
   • Shifting of Teeth: Adjacent teeth may move into empty spaces, causing bite misalignment.
