Dentures & Partials Owasso, OK


Older couple hugging and smiling with dentures at Jillian Prather Family Dentistry in Owasso, OKWhen you have missing teeth, it is important to seek immediate dental treatment. This is because you stand to put your oral and overall well-being at increased risk.

For instance, with missing teeth, you might be unable to smile confidently which might cause you stress or embarrassment.

You can also lose gum and jawbone tissues as they shrink because there are no teeth to hold them in place and ensure their fullness and health.

Our Owasso dentist at Jillian Prather Family Dentistry will assist you in finding the right type of dentures for your mouth.

At our dental practice, we educate our patients on the different types of dentures available, and which type can best restore their oral health and particular dental situation.

Complete Dentures

Complete dentures are the first type of denture. These are used if the patient has no teeth in the entire mouth, or on a particular jaw. You may find that due to an accident, you are missing teeth on the lower jaw only. This will require a complete denture that covers just the lower jaw.

Partial Dentures

Removable partial dentures are artificial teeth mounted on a gum-colored plastic base.

This base can sometimes be secured with a metal framework to keep the denture in place within your mouth. Our dentist suggests partial dentures if you have one or several teeth remaining in the lower or upper jaw.

Besides filling the gap left by missing teeth, a partial denture also prevents the remaining teeth from shifting.

Can You Get Dental Implants After Getting Dentures?

Many people can decide to get dental implants after they get dentures. The procedure is possible since dentures are not a permanent solution. You can get dental implants especially if you require dental bridges on some sections of your mouth.

How are Dentures Made?

Having a traditional full mouth denture will require several visits to the dentist to choose the best appliance for your mouth. The jaw relationship will be detected, and your jaw imprints will be obtained.

The next step is to make models, wax forms, and plastic patterns of the perfect denture shape and position. This process will be repeated many times until you get your final denture. At this point, adjustments are made to ensure that your mouth is well-fitted.

Can I Repair or Replace My Dentures?

When you get dentures, you should come in to see us regularly to make sure your dentures are continuing to fit properly.

If your dentures have been broken, it is risky to try to repair them on your own. If any bending clasp or metal denture attachment is causing pain and weakness, come in to see us.

If your dentures do not fit correctly in your mouth, they may cause mouth sores and gum irritation. If your denture is broken, or cracked, or any of the denture teeth are loose, you should visit us.

Our professionals at Jillian Prather Family Dentistry are always ready to check on your dentures and, if required, repair them. If your denture repairs are difficult, our expert lab can help. We want your dentures to fit you comfortably and properly.
