Dentures in Gahanna, OH

Dentures replace missing teeth to help you maintain normal function and appearance. They allow you to enjoy your favorite foods, speak clearly, and preserve the natural shape of your face. Tooth loss can occur from decay, gum disease, aging, or injury, and dentures provide a versatile solution.

There are two basic types of dentures:

• Full dentures: Replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw. Any remaining teeth are removed prior to fitting. Immediate dentures are ready right after extraction, while conventional dentures are made a few months later for optimal fit.
• Partial dentures: Designed for patients missing only a few teeth and looking for an alternative to permanent implants. Dr. Collins can help determine which partial denture option best meets your needs.
  

Proper care is essential to keep dentures comfortable and functional. Clean them with special denture toothpaste and attend regular check-ups at our Gahanna office to ensure a secure, comfortable fit. Over time, dentures may require a reline to adjust for natural changes in the gums. With routine care, dentures can provide a long-lasting solution for anywhere from five to thirty years.
