Dentures

Though dentures have been around a long time, they are now a much more versatile tooth replacement solution than ever before. You are no longer limited to traditional denture – though of course, they are available if you still want them.

Our dentists are happy to discuss all of your denture options with you. You’ll probably be surprised at how many there are!

Dental Implant Dentures

Dental implant dentures offer many advantages over traditional dentures. Among them:

  • They fit more securely. They’ll stay in place, and you won’t experience embarrassing slippage.
  • They are more convenient. No more using messy adhesives. You can brush and floss them just like your natural teeth.
  • They maintain your dental health. They are secured with dental implants embedded in your jawbone. This means your jaw continues to get stimulated, so you are less likely to experience bone loss that negatively impacts your dental health and results in a “shrunken” look.

At Lakeside Dentistry in Rochester, MN, we offer implant denture that you can remove yourself or ones that can be removed only by a dentist. This will depend on whether we secure your denture with sturdy metal bars or ball-and-socket attachments.

A dental implant can be used to support a partial or full denture. We can also perform a procedure called All-on-4, which uses just four dental implants to support a full arch of fixed teeth.

Which Dentures Are Right for You?

You’ll need to consider multiple factors when deciding which one to get – or whether to get denture at all. Among them:

  • Number of teeth you need to replace
  • Condition of your remaining teeth
  • Strength of your jawbone
  • Cost

Fortunately, Dr. Lucy Meyer, Dr. Peggy Scott and Dr. Mei Li Hester have nearly 60 years of dental experience between them. They’ll help you make the best decision!

Lakeside Dentistry will make sure you get the denture options that are right for you! Call our office at 507-282-8222 to make an appointment.
