Complete dentures replace an entire arch of upper or lower teeth with a custom-designed acrylic appliance. These are not the dentures your grandparents wore! Instead, today’s dentures are thoughtfully crafted and designed to complement your skin tone and create a smile you love.
Traditional dentures are removable and rely on a snug fit, suction, and sometimes adhesives to stay in place. While they require time to get used to talking and eating, patients appreciate how they immediately restore their smiles.
Partial Dentures
A partial denture is ideal for patients who still have several healthy natural teeth but are also missing multiple teeth. Your Charlotte dentist designs your partial to fill in the gaps left by missing teeth like a puzzle piece.
A partial is also removable and uses metal clasps to attach and anchor to healthy, stable teeth. It restores chewing function and aesthetics to your smile.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Dr. Shirman can also use dental implants to support dentures and bridges and replace multiple missing teeth. For example, he can design a denture that snaps into four precisely placed dental implants, which securely hold the denture, eliminating any movement or slippage during talking or eating.
Implant dentures in Charlotte are also ideal for patients who are currently struggling with ill-fitting dentures.
