Dentures

Full or partial tooth loss can damage your self-image and health, but there’s a reliable and time-tested method for treating tooth loss, and that’s dentures. Dentures can be provided for children and adults to improve their dental health and give them a healthy smile. 

At Dental Care 4 U, Dr. Raj Khurana and his team can provide complete and partial dentures within a fun, family-friendly experience. When you visit our practice, you can expect reliable, affordable dental care when you need it most.

Denture Options For Our Patients at Dental Care 4 U

Dentures are removable sets of artificial teeth that replace lost or removed natural teeth. These prosthetic devices help improve how you chew, speak, and provide excellent support for the facial muscles.

At Dental Care 4 U, we can provide a wide selection of dentures for your treatment. These types include: 

  • Complete Dentures: Full dentures provide a complete bracket of artificial teeth for your mouth. There are two subtypes of dentures that can also be provided:
    • Conventional: Conventional dentures are provided once the gums and tissues inside the mouth are completely healed and are provided for those who already have missing teeth. 
    • Immediate: Immediate dentures are inserted after our dentists perform tooth extractions on the remaining teeth. To make this possible, our team takes measurements of your mouth during your preliminary visit to prevent missing teeth during the healing period. 
  • Partial Dentures: Partial dentures replace a portion of missing teeth and are suitable for those who still have some natural teeth remaining. They’re used to fill in the missing spaces naturally and are highly flexible for children and adults.

Dentures may seem like a last resort for many patients, but dentures are an excellent way to prevent the risk of nutritional problems and other health disorders. While dentures are normally provided for those losing their teeth due to age, dentures can be an excellent resource for those who’ve lost their teeth due to accidents, developmental disorders, and other health concerns. Children who have lost their permanent teeth can also benefit from dentures, an excellent, natural alternative for regulating jaw growth.
