Complete and Partial Dentures in Costa Mesa
Are your teeth decaying and already so full of fillings that you feel you have no other alternative than to have them all pulled and replaced with complete dentures? Do you already wear a pair of dentures but feel that something is "off," that chewing and keeping the false teeth in place is more difficult than you thought? You need to speak with a qualified dentist, like Dr. Andrew Mortensen in Costa Mesa, to provide answers to all of your denture questions.
Dr. Mortensen will tell you that complete dentures are indeed sometimes the only option for patients with significant tooth decay or gum disease. At Andrew G. Mortensen, DDS, Inc. in Costa Mesa, however, we know that immediate removable partial dentures, which can be measured prior to tooth extraction and worn immediately following the appointment, can often fill gaps much more effectively in people with only a few irreparable or missing teeth. Not only that, but immediate partial dentures virtually eliminate the frequent dental problem of bone loss as well as the problem of complete denture instability.
Immediate partial dentures are easy to anchor to existing teeth - even if it's only one tooth or two - and keeping at least one natural tooth will discourage the area between one's nose and chin from shrinking and the face from looking flattened. That being said, those who already have or need complete dentures should speak with a responsible dentist like Dr. Mortensen about frequent denture repair and realignment to avoid bone shrinkage and poorly fitting false teeth before the damage becomes permanent.
