Traditional Dentures

Conventional dentures are held in place by suction over your natural anatomy. True Design Dentistry makes it our goal to create the most comfortable-fitting denture possible so that you can forget that you’re even wearing it! Each one is made of durable acrylic materials that resemble your natural smile. If you've been looking for a San Diego dentist you can rely on for all of your dental implant and denture needs, we've got you covered.

FIXED, ALL-ON-4 IMPLANT DENTURES

What if you could have a permanent set of dentures that freed up space in your mouth and gave you the feeling of natural teeth again? That’s exactly what True Design Dentistry fixed dentures do. Each one is supported by permanent implant roots to keep it in place all day long. you’ll enjoy stability, meals, laughing, and talking just like you used to!

Overdentures With Implants

For added security with the option of a removable denture, our overdenture implant option is a wonderful choice. Overdentures are conventional dentures that are stabilized by dental implant anchors but can still be removed at the end of the day. They snap snuggly onto your dental implant roots to prevent them from rocking, moving, or causing sore spots when you wear them.

PARTIAL DENTURES

Do you need to replace several missing teeth at one time? Removable partial dentures clasp into place around your existing teeth to free up space in your mouth.

YOUR DENTURE TREATMENT PROCESS

Depending on the type of denture you choose, your treatment may take two to three dental appointments. It really depends on the health of your bones and other teeth in the mouth. For instance, some patients need to have teeth removed before having an impression made for their permanent prosthesis. When you schedule your San Diego denture consultation with us, we can discuss the process more thoroughly with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do dentures stay in place?

Conventional dentures are designed to be supported by gums so initially adhesives may be required to keep the restoration in place. This can be practiced until the tongue and the cheek get used to dentures. The case is not the same with implant-supported dentures, however. These dental restorations do not require any additional support apart from dental implants.

How do I clean my dentures?

Oral hygiene plays a crucial role in the health of your teeth and gums, whether you have fixed or removable dentures. The artificial teeth set can be removed and cleaned using a toothbrush. The denture can be dipped in warm water before cleaning it. Patients should make sure to remove all food particles from dentures since any remains can increase the risk of dental infection. Dentures should be handled carefully since they may break if they slip and fall. Give True Design Dentistry a call if you have any concerns about your dentures and how to properly maintain them.

Denture Care and Maintenance

To get the most out of your removable denture or partial dentures, a good home care routine is important. Make sure you’re removing your prosthesis each night to brush it clean, soak it in an effervescent cleanser, and rinse it thoroughly the next morning. It’s also important to clean your gum tissues with a soft washcloth or toothbrush regularly to help prevent any infections.

Be sure to bring your denture with you to your regular checkups so that our San Diego dentist can inspect how it fits, make any necessary adjustments, and perform a full oral exam and cancer screening. With the right maintenance, your new denture can last for years.
