Dr. Gomes-Moore will spend the time to discover your individual's needs and wants and the makeup of your jaw/bone to determine which prosthetic option is best to fix your smile. Each individual is different, which is why Dr. Gomes-Moore will discuss the treatment options that fit your individual smile. Dr. Gomes-Moore is also sure to schedule a try-on appointment, so you can see and approve what the final denture will look like.
Immediate Dentures
Dr. Gomes-Moore offers immediate dentures that are made prior to getting your teeth removed, so you do not have to be without teeth.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are a full-coverage oral prosthetic that replaces the complete arch of lower or upper teeth. These dentures are used when patients have lost all of the teeth on their upper and/or lower jaw. These dentures are horseshoe shaped to allow your tongue to rest comfortably.
Partials Dentures
Partial dentures are used to fill intermittent gaps in your smile. Your remaining teeth are generally used to anchor the prosthetic in place. They are also usually removable for cleaning and sleeping.
Overdentures
These dentures usually involve the use of dental implants as anchors. These overdentures are "snapped" down over the implants to keep them in place. This option is usually more comfortable to wear and make chewing and speaking easier.
Dental insurance will usually pay a certain percentage of your dentures. Some insurances will even cover them entirely. Come in for a consult and we can provide each individual with a treatment plan and be sure that you know how much it will be for you.
