Whether you've lost your teeth from tooth decay, injury, or gum disease, dentures in Zebulon, NC, are a great option to help you restore your smile. Dr. Timothy Creech offers dentures, tooth-colored fillings, and crowns to get you looking and feeling your best.
The Purpose of Dentures
Dentures, whether full or partial, are replacements for missing teeth. When you receive properly fitted dentures, they can help you speak and eat better, improve the look of your smile, and restore sagging facial muscles. Dentures can also fill out your facial profile.
Types of Removable Dentures
If you've lost all your natural teeth, Dr. Creech will recommend full dentures in Zebulon, NC. Full dentures replace all the missing teeth in your upper and lower jaw. If you're only missing a few teeth or just one tooth, partial dentures are available to fill the gaps.
Doctors can custom fit your dentures to the shape of your gums by taking impressions and measurements of your mouth. Technology today has made wearing dentures more comfortable and far less invasive, and custom-fit dentures fit snugly inside your mouth.
The Benefits of Wearing Dentures
Aside from restoring your smile, dentures can restore natural teeth functions. Your ability to chew and talk clearly are greatly improved, and they improve your confidence by eliminating the awkwardness you may feel about having missing teeth. The materials that dentures are made of give you a natural-looking smile.
Do Dentures Last a Lifetime?
You'll need to have your dentures adjusted because the shape of your mouth changes as you get older. Over time, you may find it difficult to chew or speak properly. Fortunately, your dentist can rebase dentures to create a new base while keeping the existing teeth.
