Denture Services in Hillsborough, NJ

The difference between a complete and partial denture is the level of support that each offers.

A full set provides stronger chewing pressure for those who have lost their teeth, while only covering half your mouth with one or two pieces will still give you perfect speech despite not being able to chew food very well anymore due to how soft they are made out plastic resin material called acrylic.

  • The process of getting a denture starts with extraction and healing.
  • The denture is placed immediately after the extraction of teeth and allows tissues to heal under it.
  • Uppers are the perfect choice for people who want an attractive smile with no pain. An upper denture has acrylic, usually, flesh-colored material that covers your palate (roof of the mouth).
  • Lower dentures are shaped like a horseshoe to leave room for the tongue.

 

In most cases, the teeth are made of plastic, porcelain, or a combination of the two. An endodontically treated tooth can have a denture made that fits over the tooth, and a complete denture can be attached to dental implants for a more secure fit.
To maintain normal jaw alignment, dentures will wear over time and need to be replaced or relined. After teeth are removed, the alignment will slowly change as bone and gum ridges recede or shrink.
Denture wearers should still have regular dental examinations to check their oral tissues for disease.
