Dentures & Partials

Dentures in Peachtree City, GA

Losing one or more teeth can have an impact on you physically and emotionally. However, dentures and partial dentures are effective solutions for replacing missing teeth as well as restoring oral function and a beautiful smile. Advances in materials and technology make cosmetic dentures superior to traditional dentures or false teeth. Our dentists at Vassey Dental Partners in Peachtree City, GA design dentures with great care for a natural look and comfortable fit, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Dentures for a More Youthful Appearance

Many people may not realize that teeth are a major factor in how the lower part of the face appears. Patients with teeth missing often tend to look older than they actually are because they lack the adequate structure to support their cheeks and lips. This results in a droopy or saggy appearance. Also, the bone structure starts to deteriorate after a patient has lost a tooth. The appearance of patients can improve significantly by replacing teeth.

Our services for partial dentures near Peachtree City, GA are designed to fill gaps where there are missing teeth. Full dentures are designed to completely replace all of the lower or upper teeth. Unsecured dentures can be painful, inconvenient, and awkward. They can also affect your speech. Dental implants can help provide a better solution for tooth loss and can aid in denture stability.

A variety of modern dental implant based tooth replacement options are available. Any of these solutions can dramatically improve your quality of life, by enabling proper chewing and speaking, increasing comfort, and encouraging the consumption of a wider variety of foods. Ask our dentist for the right solution for you.

FAQ

What are dentures?

Dentures are custom-made artificial teeth and gums that replace the entire upper or lower arch of teeth. Dentures that only replace some teeth are known as partials. Most dentures are made of a combination of nylon or acrylic over metal.

How long does it take to get dentures?

The time it takes to get dentures depends on several factors. Most patients without the need to extract any remaining teeth will have their final dentures in a few weeks, but it can take months if other dental work is required. The process takes several visits, including final shaping.

How long do dentures last?

Most dentures last approximately 10 years. This is largely due to the change in the shape of the gums over time. This change in shape causes problems with fitting the dentures, so a new denture is the best option to prevent gum problems.

Can you sleep with dentures?

No, dentures should be removed and cleaned thoroughly, and left out while sleeping. Prolonged wearing of dentures can result in bone loss, a higher risk of gum disease, and an increased chance of developing oral thrush.

Can you eat with dentures?

A well-designed and fitted denture allows people to eat most foods. Very hard foods, such as nuts, corn on the cob, or carrots, and very sticky foods, such as toffee, peanut butter, and soft candies can be problematic.

Does Medicaid cover dentures?

Medicaid is a state-run program. Georgia Medicaid does not cover the cost of dentures, only emergency dental care services. Talk to our staff about options to pay for dentures.
