Versatility and Adaptability

Partial dentures are known for their versatility. Whether you are missing just a few teeth or several in different areas, partials can be custom-designed to fill those gaps seamlessly. They are adaptable, ensuring that your natural remaining teeth can still play a significant role in your bite and oral function. This flexibility makes partial dentures a practical solution for many dental needs.

Cost-Effective Solution

When comparing costs, partial dentures are often more economical than implants or bridges. Partial dentures do not require invasive procedures and can provide an effective solution at a fraction of the cost.

Non-Invasive Procedure

Implants are an excellent restorative dentistry solution for many patients. But unlike dental implants, which involve surgical procedures, obtaining partial dentures is non-invasive. This can be particularly appealing to patients who have health concerns that make surgery a higher risk or to those who simply prefer avoiding surgery. Getting partial dentures typically involves a few appointments for molds and fittings, offering a straightforward path to restoring your smile.

Ease of Adjustment and Replacement

As your oral health evolves, or if additional teeth are lost, partial dentures can be modified to accommodate these changes. Partials can be adjusted or re-made to reflect your current dental status. This adaptability also applies to maintaining and repairing dentures, ensuring longevity and functionality without extensive replacement costs.

Aesthetic Appeal

We craft today’s partial dentures with aesthetics in mind. Modern materials and design techniques allow for a more natural look, closely mimicking the appearance of real teeth. With custom color matching and precise fittings, partial dentures blend effortlessly with your existing teeth, offering a confident and radiant smile.

Improved Oral Health

Missing teeth can lead to numerous oral health problems, including shifting of remaining teeth, misalignment, and an increased risk of gum disease. Partial dentures support the remaining teeth, stabilize the bite, and help distribute chewing forces evenly across the mouth, improving oral health.

What To Expect During Your Appointment

Embarking on the journey toward obtaining partial dentures begins with a thorough consultation at Charlotte Progressive Dentistry. Our dedicated team will discuss your dental needs and goals during this initial appointment. We will review your dental and medical history to ensure that partial dentures are the right choice for you. This thorough evaluation is necessary to tailor our approach to your unique situation and to provide the most effective care plan tailored to your needs.

Comprehensive Assessment

The next step involves a comprehensive dental examination. Our dental professionals will examine your mouth, paying close attention to the overall health of your gums and remaining teeth. X-rays or 3D scans might be required to create a detailed image of your oral structure. This helps us understand the positioning of your remaining teeth and the gaps that need filling. We must resolve any underlying dental issues before the placement of dentures to ensure maximum comfort and a longer lifespan for your dentures.

Custom Impressions

Following the assessment, the process of creating your custom partial dentures begins. We will take precise impressions of your teeth and gums. These impressions are the foundation for crafting your dentures, enabling us to create a device that fits comfortably and functions effectively. We send the impressions to highly skilled dental technicians who use advanced techniques and materials to create dentures that match the natural aesthetics of your existing teeth, including customized shades and shapes.

Fitting and Adjustments

Once your partial dentures are crafted, you’ll return to our office for an initial fitting. This is an exciting step as it brings you closer to achieving a full, bright smile. During this appointment, our dentists will test the fit of the dentures, making any necessary adjustments to ensure comfort and functionality. Partial dentures must fit well to prevent irritation, sores, or issues with speech and eating. This fitting process is meticulous; your feedback is crucial in achieving the best outcome.

Learning to Adapt

Adapting to life with partial dentures requires patience and practice. Our team guides you through wearing and caring for your new dentures. We will also discuss proper oral hygiene practices, including cleaning your dentures and maintaining the health of your remaining teeth and gums. It’s common to experience some initial discomfort or minor changes in speech, but our staff is here to support you through this adjustment period. We encourage follow-up visits to address concerns and ensure long-term comfort and satisfaction.
