Why Choose Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace missing teeth and are designed to enhance your facial appearance and oral function. Whether you've lost teeth due to decay, gum disease, or injury, dentures can restore your ability to eat and speak more clearly, which often improves your overall quality of life.
Types of Dentures
At Fame Dental, we offer various types of dentures to meet the diverse needs of our patients:
- Complete Dentures: Used when all the teeth are missing and can be fitted to the top or bottom gum line.
- Partial Dentures: Ideal for when one or more natural teeth remain in the upper or lower jaw. They not only fill in the spaces created by missing teeth but also prevent other teeth from changing position.
- Immediate Dentures: Prepared in advance and can be positioned as soon as the teeth are removed.
- Overdentures: Fit over a small number of remaining natural teeth after they have been prepared.
Signs You May Need Dentures
If you’re experiencing any of the following issues, it might be time to consult with our team about dentures:
- Loss of several or all teeth, which impacts your daily activities like chewing and speaking.
- Severe tooth decay or gum disease that has led to multiple tooth losses.
- Existing dentures that do not fit well causing discomfort or difficulties in chewing.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for my dentures?
Proper care is crucial to extend the life of your dentures and maintain oral health:
- Clean them daily using a soft-bristle brush and a non-abrasive cleanser.
- Keep dentures moist when not in use to maintain their shape.
- Handle them with care to avoid bending or damaging the material.
Will dentures feel uncomfortable?
Initially, new dentures may feel a little odd or loose until the muscles of your cheeks and tongue learn to keep them in place. However, they should become more comfortable over time. Any persistent discomfort should be addressed by your dentist.
How often do I need to replace my dentures?
With proper care, dentures typically last between 5 to 7 years before needing replacement due to normal wear or changes in your gums and jawbone.
Can I sleep with my dentures?
It is recommended to remove dentures at night to allow your gum tissues to rest and to promote oral hygiene. However, follow the specific advice of your dentist regarding the long-term care of your dentures.
How much do dentures cost?
The cost of dentures varies based on the type of dentures chosen and the preparatory work needed for your gums and jaw. At Fame Dental, we provide detailed pricing information during your consultation and offer various payment and financing options to accommodate your budget.
