Full & Partial Dentures in Chester, NJ

What Are Full & Partial Dentures?

Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissue.

• Full dentures — Replace all teeth in the upper or lower arch
• Partial dentures — Replace multiple missing teeth while preserving remaining natural teeth

Each appliance is custom-made to ensure proper fit, support, and a natural-looking result.

When Dentures Are Recommended

Dentures are often recommended when multiple teeth are missing and need to be replaced to restore function and appearance.

They may be appropriate for:

• Significant tooth loss in one or both arches
• Difficulty chewing or speaking due to missing teeth
• Changes in facial structure caused by tooth loss
• Patients seeking a removable replacement option

A comprehensive evaluation helps determine whether dentures or alternatives such as Dental Bridges or Dental Implants are the best fit for your goals.

The Denture Process

Creating dentures involves several steps to ensure a secure and comfortable fit.

The process typically includes:

• Evaluating your oral health and remaining structures
• Taking detailed impressions using tools such as Digital Impressions iTero
• Designing the shape, size, and alignment of the teeth
• Fitting and adjusting the final appliance for comfort and function

This approach helps ensure that your dentures feel stable and natural during daily use.

Supporting Long-Term Comfort and Fit

• Implant Overdentures to improve retention and function

While implant placement will be offered in the future, current care includes restoring and maintaining implant-supported solutions as part of Restorative Dentistry.

To support longevity:

• Clean dentures daily using recommended methods
• Remove them at night when advised
