Did you just receive the news that you\u2019ll need to have numerous teeth extracted? You may want to consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilespecialties.com\/dentures-and-partials.html\">partial or full dentures<\/a>. These advanced dental prosthetics offer effective restoration for patients who\u2019ve lost numerous consecutive and\/or nonconsecutive teeth or a full row. In the past, wearing dentures was something many patients dreaded, but today\u2019s partial and full dentures are more comfortable, stable, and cosmetically flawless than ever before. This is especially true for patients who visit a prosthodontist for their tooth replacement needs.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Why Replacing Missing Teeth Matters<\/h2>\n<p>When missing teeth aren\u2019t replaced, any remaining healthy teeth can shift to fill in the gaps leading to advanced cosmetic and orthodontic problems. Additionally, tooth loss also makes it more difficult for patients to speak clearly and chew the wide range of foods necessary to receive adequate nutrition. Perhaps most detrimental, missing teeth can rob you of your confidence to share smiles.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Dentures are the Best Solution for Extensive Tooth Replacement<\/h2>\n<p>Both partial and full dentures are crafted using a gum-colored material to support numerous replacement teeth as part of a single tooth replacement prosthetic. Partials fit between remaining healthy teeth recreating a seamless smile line. The partial denture is held in position using metal clasps that attach to the remaining teeth. Full dentures are formed to fit snugly against the gum line. This snug fit creates suction that holds the dentures in position. Some patients also use a small amount of denture adhesive to hold the prosthetic firmly in position.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Dental Implant Supported Dentures are Ideal<\/h2>\n<p>Patients interested in a longer lasting denture option, may want to consider dental implant supported dentures. When attached to dental implant posts, dentures look, feel, and function much more like natural smiles. These implant-retained tooth replacements are the only prosthetics that replace both the roots and crowns of missing teeth. That means the gums and bone tissue receive the necessary stimulation to maintain soft tissue volume and jawbone density, avoiding the sagging, wrinkled facial shape many people associate with denture wearers.<\/p>\n<h3>Meet Jennifer A.
