Dentures & Partial Dentures
Reliable Dentures from Wisconsin’s Dental Leader
Missing teeth can greatly affect your ability to speak, eat, and smile. Our team of experienced dentists and prosthodontists offer a full line of dentures to give your mouth full functionality again.
Dentures
Dentures fill the gaps created by lost teeth and help the facial and jaw muscles to work properly so that you can eat, speak, and smile normally.
Dentures are made of an acrylic base that supports fabricated teeth usually made of porcelain or acrylic. The base is shaded to match the natural color of your gum tissue for a seamless look. Since they’re made to match the structure and form of your individual mouth, they’ll help maintain the look and structural integrity of your face. A dental lab will craft your dentures and shape them to exact proportions based on custom impressions of your mouth.
Partial Dentures
A partial denture covers only part of your mouth. It stays in place with clasps that secure to your adjacent natural teeth. Partials are usually recommended when one or more of your natural, healthy teeth are still in the mouth. Dental Associates dentists try to keep as many teeth as possible in your mouth, because the more natural teeth, the greater the integrity of your jawbone.
