Risks of Untreated Tooth Loss

Tooth loss has an immediate and noticeable impact on the aesthetics of your smile. More than that, the loss of even one tooth can make eating and speaking with ease difficult. Did you also know an incomplete smile can cause drastic and harmful changes to your oral health that can negatively impact your quality of life?

The following health risks and concerns are related to missing teeth:

  • Shifting teeth that damage remaining teeth
  • Higher risk of gum disease and infections
  • Increased cortisol levels, leading to high blood pressure
  • Jawbone deterioration and bite problems
  • Weakened facial muscles, causing wrinkles or a sunken appearance around the eyes

With these and many more health risks caused by missing teeth, our office takes restorative dentistry very seriously. That is why our artfully designed dentures are so much more than false teeth. We use the most advanced dental technology available to craft a denture treatment plan that meets your oral health needs and achieves your goals for a beautiful, new smile.

The Types of Dentures Available

Dentures restore oral function following the loss of multiple teeth. Here at Dental Solutions of Encinitas, we don’t believe in a “one size fits all” approach to oral health. We are proud to create personalized treatment plans that create smiles as unique as the people who share them.

At our office we are committed to exceeding your expectations when it comes to improving your oral health and getting you a picture perfect smile. To honor this commitment, we offer a variety of dentures so you can find the greatest fit to suit your lifestyle.

Partial Dentures

If you still have a few natural teeth remaining but the gap in your smile is too large for a dental bridge, you may be a candidate for a partial denture. A partial denture attaches to natural teeth using metal clasps or other attachment devices. They are crafted to match your original teeth and can easily be attached or removed using specialized clasps.

Full Dentures

The recommended treatment if you are missing all of your teeth or need your teeth replaced due to advanced decay or dental trauma. Removable dentures attach directly to your gums using a bonding agent. Our office offers multiple options for removable dentures that can be matched to your needs and budget.

Implant-Supported Dentures

If you are interested in the most secure smile and additional oral health benefits, implant-supported dentures is the treatment for you. By being gently but firmly affixed to your jaw, these dentures simulate nearly every aspect of your natural teeth.

Benefits of Dentures

Dentures allow you to chew and speak with confidence. The restorations also fill out your cheeks and leave you looking younger. Although these prosthetics are not considered cosmetic treatments, there are aesthetic benefits to eliminating gaps in your smile. Many of our Encinitas dental patients report feeling more confident after receiving their custom bridge or denture.

If you are seeking an implant-retained denture, there are further oral health benefits. Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace tooth roots. Implants stimulate jawbone growth and prevent jawbone atrophy. Many patients report that implant-retained prosthetics feel and function like natural teeth.

What Should I Expect from My Denture Treatment?

The dental experts of Dental Solutions of Encinitas consider a patient’s emotional and physical well-being the most important priority. At every step of your denture treatment, you will be treated with dignity and respect. Our dentist, Dr. Sherry Vakilian, is a regional leader in the field of restorative dentistry.

Your treatment will begin with a consultation and exam. Images of your teeth, gums, and jaw will be taken and your restorative treatment goals will be discussed.

Your Tooth Loss Solution Is a Call Away

Restoring your smile to its fullest also restores your oral health and quality of life. With the dentures provided by the fantastic professionals here at Dental Solutions of Encinitas, you will once again be able to comfortably chew your favorite foods, speak clearly, and smile with confidence.
