Dentures and False Teeth in New Bedford

Large gaps, yellowing and decaying teeth, and even a crooked tooth or two lead many people in the New Bedford area to believe that they need a complete set of dentures. However, there are other options, such as crowns, bridges, whitening treatments, and partial dentures, that may better fit your needs. Paul Ponte, Tucker Road Dental Associates can tell you what kind of dental treatments will work best with your individual smile!

Dr. Ponte is the New Bedford dentures dentist who seeks to educate his patients on the true nature of dentures. Extensive tooth decay or gum disease are about the only reasons you would need to have all of your teeth removed and replaced with false teeth. If you have or require a complete set of dentures, you should meet regularly with Dr. Ponte to schedule repair and realignment dental procedures.

Taking immediate care of any problems like an uncomfortable fit of false teeth can help you avoid the common denture problem of instability (in which the false teeth don't stick to the roof of your mouth) or bone loss (in which your lips and face visibly shrink as the bones between your nose and chin diminish). At Tucker Road Dental Associates, we can help you avoid these problems altogether with immediate partial dentures, which can use even one good tooth to anchor the dentures in place and keep your bones from changing shape. And, they're often ready to wear after only two appointments with your dentist.

When you've got questions about dentures, you need a caring, resourceful denture dentist like Dr. Paul Ponte. Whether you need complete dentures, denture repair, or immediate partial dentures, you don't need to leave Massachusetts or even New Bedford to find the right dentist - he's right here!
