With locations in Crestview, Pensacola and Mary Esther, Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics offers dentures to those local residents who are looking for functional artificial teeth.
What Are Dentures?
Bring back your smile, regain your chewing ability, and live life to the fullest with dentures from Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics. Dentures are artificial teeth placed along the gum line that enable normal chewing, biting, and speech when your natural adult teeth have been removed either due to decay or damage. Dentures can help restore your smile, as well as give you the functionality that you need to live your life in a normal fashion.
Benefits of Dentures
Who doesn’t want to eat food more easily, smile more broadly, and look better? That’s what dentures from the dental health experts at Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics can do for you. In addition to helping you improve your ability to eat foods you love as well as to speak normally, dentures provide you with a healthy, beautiful smile when one or more teeth are missing.
What Is the Procedure for Dentures?
As part of the procedure, you may need to have any problem teeth extracted and then you’ll need to allow your mouth to heal properly before having your dentures fitted. Once healed, molds are made of your mouth, and they are sent to a lab where your dentures are carefully crafted to your specific measurements. You may have conventional full dentures, immediate full dentures (made as soon as the teeth are extracted and later realigned and refitted to ensure greater comfort), or partial dentures, which can serve as an alternative to bridges or implants.
Preparing for Dentures
There is no specific preparation for dentures, other than scheduling your consultation now so that we can discuss the full range of dentures options available to you. The dentures process takes place over multiple appointments. You will need to get fitted for your dentures, as well as choose a shade (color) of your dentures or partial. After this, your dentures will be crafted to meet your exact specifications.
Recovery from Dentures
Your dentures may feel a little awkward, bulky, or loose at first, as your mouth gets used to them. In time, however, the muscles of your tongue and cheeks will hold your dentures in place better.
How Much Do Dentures Cost?
Dentures are often covered by dental insurance, so please contact your provider to learn more. If you do not have dental insurance, Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics offers convenient financing options through CareCredit® and OrthoBanc® to help make your dentures more affordable.
