Struggling with missing teeth? Dentures might be your ticket to a full, radiant smile. Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They come in two types: complete dentures, used when all teeth are missing, and partial dentures, used when some natural teeth remain. Crafted from durable, realistic materials, dentures can restore the function and appearance of your smile. At Florham Park Smile Lounge, we provide high-quality dentures, custom-made to fit your mouth comfortably and look natural. Our expert team, led by Dr. Imran Uddin, ensures the process is smooth, efficient, and tailored to your needs.
The Denture Treatment Process
Consultation And Impressions
The first step toward getting dentures is a consultation with Dr. Uddin. He will examine your mouth, discuss your needs and preferences, and determine whether dentures are the right solution for you. If they are, he will take impressions of your mouth to ensure your dentures fit perfectly.
Creation Of Dentures
The impressions of your mouth are sent to a dental lab, where your dentures are custom-made. This process can take a few weeks, but it’s crucial to ensure your dentures look natural and fit comfortably.
Fitting And Adjustments
Once your dentures are ready, you'll return to our office for a fitting. Dr. Uddin will place the dentures in your mouth and check their fit and appearance. He may make minor adjustments to ensure maximum comfort and a natural look.
The Benefits Of Dentures
Improved Aesthetics
Dentures can greatly enhance your appearance by filling in the gaps left by missing teeth. They are designed to look like natural teeth, so they blend seamlessly with any remaining teeth. This can lead to improved self-confidence and a more youthful appearance.
Enhanced Function
Missing teeth can make it difficult to eat certain foods or speak clearly. Dentures restore this lost functionality, allowing you to enjoy a varied diet and communicate with ease. They also help maintain the shape of your mouth, preventing the facial sagging that can occur when multiple teeth are missing.
Long-term Solution
With proper care, dentures can last many years. They are a cost-effective solution for missing teeth, particularly when compared to other options like dental implants. Plus, if your mouth changes shape over time (a common occurrence as we age), your dentures can be adjusted or replaced to ensure a continued comfortable fit.
