Restore Function and Beauty With Dentures
Missing teeth are more common than many realize. According to the American College of Prosthodontists, over 36 million Americans have lost all their natural teeth, and roughly 120 million are missing at least one. Missing teeth can affect not only your smile but also your ability to eat, speak, and feel confident.
At Victory Smiles Dental Center in The Woodlands, we provide custom denture solutions to restore both function and aesthetics. Whether you need partial or full dentures, our team is here to help you enjoy a healthy, beautiful smile once again.
What are Dentures?
Dentures are prosthetic teeth designed to replace missing teeth and support your oral function. Modern dentures are carefully crafted with a durable acrylic base and natural-looking teeth to blend seamlessly with your gums and remaining teeth. With proper fitting, dentures allow you to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
Partial vs. Full Dentures
- Partial Dentures: Ideal for patients missing some teeth while keeping remaining natural teeth. They clip into place to fill gaps and maintain proper alignment.
- Full Dentures: Designed for patients who have lost all teeth in one or both arches. Full dentures restore your smile completely and can also be combined with denture implants for added stability.
Denture Implants
For patients seeking a more secure solution, denture implants offer the stability of dental implants with the full coverage of dentures. This hybrid approach prevents slipping, improves chewing efficiency, and provides a long-lasting solution for multiple missing teeth.
Caring for Your Dentures
Proper denture care ensures comfort, longevity, and oral health:
- Clean dentures daily before reinserting.
- Remove dentures at night and store in a cleaning solution.
- Brush gently with a soft brush and non-abrasive toothpaste.
- Visit your dentist promptly if dentures become uncomfortable or damaged.
