Overview

Dentures

Looking to restore your smile? Dentures in Houston might be just what you need! Whether you’ve lost a tooth or multiple teeth due to injury, decay, or age, dentures offer a functional and natural-looking solution that can give you back the confidence to smile freely. Dentures are removable dental devices designed to replace missing teeth, providing a great way to restore your smile and improve your quality of life. They’re custom-made to fit your mouth comfortably, and with proper care, they can last for many years.

Partial vs. Full Dentures

There are two main types of dentures: partial and full. Partial dentures are perfect if you’re missing some but not all of your teeth. We design these dentures to fill in the gaps while still keeping your remaining natural teeth intact. Full dentures, on the other hand, are for people who have lost all their teeth in one or both arches. Whether you need partial or full dentures, both types are custom-made to fit your mouth and provide a natural, functional smile.

What to Expect When Getting Dentures in Houston

So, what does getting dentures in Houston look like? Here’s a quick rundown of the process:

  1. Consultation and Planning

Your journey begins with a consultation at The Vintage Dental Studio with Dr. Danny Chirla. We’ll chat about your goals, take X-rays, and discuss whether dentures are the best option for you. Dr. Chirla will walk you through the process and make sure you’re comfortable every step of the way.

  1. Mouth Preparation

Before we can place your dentures, we’ll need to prepare your mouth. If you still have any remaining teeth, they’ll be removed (if necessary), and we’ll ensure your gums are healthy and ready to support your new dentures.

  1. Taking Impressions

Once your mouth is ready, we’ll take impressions of your gums, which we use to create custom dentures that fit perfectly. We send these impressions to a dental lab, where your dentures will be carefully crafted to match your natural teeth.

  1. Fitting and Adjustments

When your dentures are ready, you’ll return to The Vintage Dental Studio for your first fitting. Dr. Chirla will make sure they fit comfortably and look natural. It’s normal to need some adjustments after the first fitting to ensure they feel just right.

  1. Follow-Up and Care

After getting your dentures, you’ll return for follow-up appointments to ensure everything is healing well and that your dentures continue to fit correctly. Proper care is key, so regular cleanings and adjustments are important to maintain their look and function.

Taking Care of Your Dentures

Once you have your dentures, it’s essential to follow a few tips to keep them in top shape:

  • Clean them regularly: Just like natural teeth, you need to clean your dentures daily to remove food particles and plaque.
  • Be gentle: Don’t drop your dentures, as they can break. When handling them, make sure to place them on a soft surface.
  • Remove them at night: Take your dentures out while you sleep to give your gums a rest and help prevent any discomfort.
  • Keep them moist: If you’re not wearing them, store your dentures in water or a cleaning solution to prevent them from drying out and losing their shape.
