Have you experienced the loss of many or all of your teeth? Dr. Derek Lichter is pleased to offer dentures at our office, providing a comprehensive solution to restore the health, beauty and function of your smile.
Types of Dentures
We offer both complete and partial dentures in Chula Vista, California, catering to your specific needs. These removable oral appliances feature pink foundations that mimic lost gum tissue, with natural looking restorations that mimic real teeth.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are recommended to replace an entire arch of teeth. They can be used for the upper arch, lower arch or both dental arches. Our dentist may recommend a denture adhesive to help keep your appliance secure in your mouth.
- Usage: Wearable whenever necessary, whether during meals, social outings or at home.
- Application: Place it over your gums, suctioning it to the roof of your mouth.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are recommended when you are missing multiple teeth but still have some natural teeth remaining. They include a thin framework or clasps which attach to your natural teeth to ensure a secure and stable fit for your dentures.
- Usage: Convenient for specific gaps in your mouth.
- Application: Insert the appliance into the gap, clasping it to remaining teeth on both sides.
Benefits of Dentures
Dentures offer several advantages, including:
- Restoration of Function: Regain the ability to eat and speak properly.
- Facial Shape Enhancement: Fill and maintain the natural shape of your face.
- Increased Confidence: You can once again eat, speak and smile normally.
