Dentures and Partials

With advanced digital technology and thoughtful in-office amenities, we’ve created a space where patients of all ages feel comfortable. Whether you need full dentures or a partial to replace a few missing teeth, we build custom solutions that fit your life—and your budget.

What Are Dentures and Partials?

Dentures and partials are removable dental prosthetics that replace missing teeth and restore oral function. Each option serves a different purpose depending on how many teeth you’ve lost.

Full Dentures

Full dentures replace an arch of missing teeth—top, bottom, or both. The dentist customizes each set to match your facial features and bite, using 3D imaging and panoramic X-rays to ensure a secure, comfortable fit.

Partial Dentures

Partials work well for patients who still have healthy teeth. These appliances clip onto your remaining teeth and fill the gaps with natural-looking replacements. We use digital scanners and intraoral imaging to map your mouth and design a precise, stable fit.

Who Benefits from Dentures or Partials?

Are dentures or partials right for you? Dr. Velasquez evaluates your situation carefully and recommends the best approach based on your goals and oral health. If you’re experiencing any of the following, it may be time to explore your options:

Multiple missing teeth that affect your ability to chew or speak
Severely damaged or worn teeth that no longer function properly
Changes in facial appearance, such as sunken cheeks or a shifting jawline
Discomfort with current appliances, such as bridges or loose-fitting dentures

Our Process: What to Expect

We’ve streamlined the denture process to make it efficient, precise, and comfortable for every patient. Here’s how we handle your smile from start to finish:

1. Initial Consultation and Digital Assessment

Our team begins with a detailed oral evaluation and reviews your medical and dental history. We use CBCT scans, digital X-rays, and intraoral cameras to assess bone levels, gum health, and remaining teeth. Additionally, we will help you understand insurance coverage and our flexible financing options.

2. Digital Design for a Natural Look

Using digital impressions and 3D software, the dentist creates a custom design that fits your mouth’s exact shape and shade. This ensures your new smile not only feels great but looks completely natural.

3. Fabrication and Fitting

We collaborate with trusted dental labs using cutting-edge milling technology to fabricate dentures or partials. Once we receive your appliance, we schedule a fitting to ensure it’s secure and comfortable. The doctor can make small adjustments on-site for the perfect fit.

4. Final Placement and Care

After your new smile is in place, our staff provides care instructions to help extend the life of your dentures. You’ll leave with a custom goodie bag and guidance on cleaning, storing, and maintaining your appliance.

Caring for Your Dentures

Proper care helps your dentures stay functional and attractive for years. Our team walks you through every step, but here are a few essentials to keep in mind:

Clean daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive cleanser
Store in water or a soaking solution when not wearing
Handle with care to avoid cracking or bending.
