Dentures

Enjoy a Firm Hold on Life with Custom Dentures

Dentures have come a long way since George Washington’s ill-fitting ivories – or even since your grandparents’ day.

Today’s dentures are:

  • Made from a strong, translucent material that resembles natural teeth
  • Custom crafted to closely resemble the shape of your existing smile
  • Fill out your mouth, improving your profile
  • Promote dental health by keeping teeth from drifting

Especially if your natural teeth are worn, cracked, missing in some places, and have gaps, dentures will actually give you a better smile.

Full and Partial Dentures Meet Your Unique Needs

Full dentures are best for those who have lost all or most of their teeth, are not good candidates for implants, and desire a relatively quick, affordable solution to their needs.

Ask Dr. Mondock if a conventional denture or an immediate denture would better suit your needs.

Partial dentures (also called “overdentures”) are best for those who have gaps they wish filled, but are not interested in implants. Partial Dentures are removable units that fit over either natural teeth or implants.

Bridges are a type of partial denture.
