Partials and Full Dentures in Temecula, CA

This can have devastating effects when it comes to your appearance and how your mouth functions.

Full Dentures
Unfortunately, some patients lose all their natural teeth in the upper and lower jaws. In this case, they benefit from full dentures. Significant, permanent tooth loss may be a result of severe tooth decay, injury, or periodontal disease. Our dentists near you will create these full dentures as a means of restoring normal mouth functions, often with life-changing results.
Full dentures are extremely beneficial for patients who have total, permanent tooth loss. They restore oral functions such as biting, chewing, and even talking. Full dentures can restore a sense of confidence in your appearance as well.
Partials
Partial dentures are designed for patients who still have one or more of their original teeth remaining in the upper or lower jaw but are missing the rest. Partials consist of a set of false replacement teeth that are attached to a plastic base resembling gum tissue and can be removed from the mouth. Our dentists in Temecula, CA recommend partial dentures to fill gaps created by several missing teeth.
Partial dentures keep the remaining permanent teeth from shifting position in the mouth. The internal attachment design of partials, created for you by our dentists, is intended to look and function like your natural teeth. This restores the ability to properly bite, chew, and even speak.
