Top-Rated Dentures in Muskegon, MI

Safe and Affordable Dentures

Among today’s most popular restorative dental treatments for tooth replacement and bone loss are dentures, which help to protect the underlying jaw bone as well as restore your smile. There are several different types of dentures that patients can opt for depending on their treatment requirements, and their smile goals.

Different types of dentures may include:

• Traditional dentures which are only placed after problematic teeth have been extracted and a healing process has occurred. This is a common treatment option for patients who have more time available for treatment.
• Immediate dentures are created and placed once the gum tissue has healed from any tooth extractions, and are ideal for patients who require missing teeth to be replaced immediately.
• Upper dentures, as their name would suggest, only occupy the top arch of teeth and are matched to your existing natural teeth for as natural and seamless of a look as possible.
• Lower dentures make up the bottom row of teeth, and are also matched to your existing natural teeth to make for a natural and complete look.

The portion of dentures that serve as replacement teeth are made of acrylic, which is a strong plastic that can retain it strength and form over many years – dentures, in most cases, are made to be a permanent solution that can last you the rest of your life when cared for properly! Some patients, however, do prefer removable dentures either because this is the type of dentures they’ve become accustomed to, or out of convenience. It’s key with dentures to routinely see your dentist to have your dentures examined to ensure they retain their strength and form.
