DENTURES
Full & Partial Dentures
Patients missing numerous teeth on an arch or a full row of teeth have relied upon partial and full removable dentures to restore their smiles for decades. At Big River Dental, Dr. Dickey and his team offer patients from Brandon, Pearl, Madison, Flowood, Ridgeland, and Vicksburg comfortable, secure partial and full dentures. We utilize only the highest quality materials and most innovative techniques and technologies in order to not just restore, but enhance patients’ smiles.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are composed of a number of replacement teeth set into a gum-colored, malleable base. The partial fits into the gaps in patients’ smiles like a puzzle piece, and they clip into place with bars or clasps, offering patients a stable restoration. Partials are easily removed for cleaning and comfort during sleep.
These removable restorations allow patients to enjoy a confident smile, restored chewing ability, and clear speech. They also keep remaining healthy teeth from shifting and allow patients to retain healthy smiles.
Full Dentures
A full denture is crafted similarly to partial dentures, being made from a full row of teeth set into a gum colored
base. We utilize the highest quality materials and techniques to form the denture to remain securely in place. This
occurs when its base is able to seal with the patient's gum tissue. During regular six month checkups at our
Brandon, Mississippi practice, we’ll check the comfort and fit of dentures to ensure years of secure and stable smiles.
We’re happy to reshape them as necessary in order to allow patients to keep their restoration for decades.
Benefits of Partial and Full Removable Dentures
- Preserve oral and overall health with renewed chewing ability
- Restore patients’ confidence with a complete smile
- Improved clarity of speech
- Improved digestion and variety of diet due to restored chewing ability
- Higher quality materials and techniques make removable dentures more comfortable
and longer lasting than past options
Implant Supported Dentures
Patients interested in a more natural and dependable dental restoration may wish to consider a dental implant supported partial or full denture. Dental implants replace the root structure and visible surfaces of teeth unlike traditional dentures, which replace only the visible portions of teeth. Regardless of what type of restoration you choose, don’t wait to replace any number of missing teeth.
