Dentures

Our dentist in Sunnyvale replaces missing, damaged or extensively decayed teeth with dentures.  If you suffer from any of these problems, schedule an appointment at our office by dialing 408-730-4064.  We provide partial, full and immediate dentures.  Most patients are best served with partial or full dentures that require several visits to our Sunnyvale dental practice. 

The denture process begins with a pre-denture visit in which the soft tissue and gums are analyzed for denture placement.  The dentist takes x-rays to ensure the underlying bones are suitable for denture placement.  If necessary, the dentist will recommend a procedure such as the removal of flabby tissue that is unnecessary, setting the stage for dentures that fit just right.  It might also be necessary to slightly reshape bone for the perfect denture fit.  The dentist creates a mold or cast of the lower/upper gums for the fabrication of dentures designed specifically for your mouth. 

The length of the dentures will be determined by your unique mouth.  The dentist then transitions to the denture wax try-in to guarantee the dentures fit just right.  Whether you have lost multiple teeth or need all of your teeth replaced, our Sunnyvale dentist will provide you with full/partial dentures that make eating, smiling and speaking that much easier. 

Be patient as your gums heal after extraction, follow the dentist’s directions for denture removal and your dentures will serve you well in the years ahead.
