TYPES OF DENTURES AT BALLPARK HEIGHTS FAMILY DENTAL

Ballpark Heights Family Dental offers several different denture options tailored to fit your unique needs and preferences. Dr. McPherson will work closely with you to determine the best type of denture, including one that allows us to preserve your remaining teeth when applicable. Here are some of the types of dentures we have to choose from:

• Complete “Full” Dentures: Traditional full-arch dentures are ideal for patients who have lost all of their natural teeth in either the upper or lower jaw or need to have their remaining teeth removed. These dentures are custom-made to fit comfortably over your gum tissues to help create a seal.
  
• Partial Dentures: If you have a few missing teeth but still have some healthy teeth remaining, partial dentures are a fantastic choice because they do not require removing your other teeth. These dentures are designed to fill the gaps in your smile while using your remaining teeth for reinforcement. 
  
• Implant-Supported Dentures: For those seeking a more stable and secure denture solution, implant-supported designs may be the answer. In these situations, dental implants are placed to provide a strong foundation for your dentures to attach to. This option offers enhanced stability and chewing efficiency. Depending on the type of appliance you’re getting, it may be a removable “snap-on” overdenture or a permanent hybrid appliance.
