Dentist in Brentwood, CA explains the top three reasons patients consider partial dentures

Patients often enjoy learning about the reasons others choose certain treatments. When suffering from tooth loss, there are several options including dental bridges, dentures, and dental implants. Patients will find all of these treatments at Brentwood Family Dental in Brentwood, CA, an award-winning dental practice in the Bay Area. Although dental bridges and dental implants may be ideal, many patients ask about the reasons we may recommend partial dentures.

Patients who are looking for a permanent solution for tooth loss may want to consider our partial dentures. We can customize partial dentures to match your exact tooth color and ensure they fit precisely. What are the top three reasons patients choose partials? We are happy to explain.

1. Partial dentures are designed to be natural looking. Although the first thought of dentures may be gooey adhesive and appliances that sat on your grandparent's nightstand, these tooth replacements have come a long way over the years. We match the artificial teeth to your natural tooth color. The dentures are customized by dental laboratory professionals to ensure optimal fit, function, and appearance. They use impressions of your dental arches to create the ideal denture for you. You can choose from a metal base or natural looking composite resin based acrylic material such as Valpast. It is rare anyone will notice your dentures.


2. Patients can embrace excellent oral health after denture treatment. When tooth loss is left untreated, teeth may shift into gaps from missing teeth. This can make it difficult to brush and floss the teeth properly, leading to decay and gum disease. Dentures are easy to remove and clean. We will provide after care instructions to ensure your dentures and oral health remain in tip top condition.


3. We can restore health and function to the smile. It can be difficult to pronounce certain words and chew properly when missing teeth. Partial dentures can restore that ability while delivering a beautiful, natural aesthetic.

In addition to the aforementioned reasons, patients are often more confident when smiling after denture treatment. Dentures, whether for partial or complete tooth loss, can improve your quality of life. If you would like to explore denture treatment, call our team at 925-344-5296 to schedule a consultation today.
