Missing teeth affect your confidence, eating, and long-term oral health. Dentures are a time-tested, affordable solution — but which type is right for you?
Complete Dentures
Replace ALL teeth in one or both arches. Made from acrylic resin, they rest on the gums. Best when all or most teeth need replacing.
Partial Dentures
Replace some missing teeth when healthy teeth remain. Clip onto existing teeth. Available in rigid acrylic or flexible (Valplast) material.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Anchored to 2–4 implants for dramatically superior stability — no sliding, no adhesive needed. Best long-term option.
The Fitting Process
4–5 appointments over 4–6 weeks: impressions, bite records, shade matching, wax trial, delivery and adjustments.
Adaptation Period
2–4 weeks to feel natural. Most patients adapt completely within a month and wonder why they waited.
Long-Term Maintenance
Remove and rinse after eating. Brush daily with a soft denture brush. Soak overnight. Attend annual reviews as gum shape changes over time.
The Bottom Line
Implant-supported dentures offer the best stability and comfort. Conventional dentures offer the most affordable starting point. Dr. Jinny will help you choose based on your bone, budget, and lifestyle.
