Your teeth play a vital role in your ability to eat your favorite foods and talk. If you have experienced tooth loss for any reason, you may have noticed it has become more difficult to chew food or speak clearly. We understand that these issues can be frustrating, and finding treatment to replace your lost structures can be difficult as well. Your Homecare Dentists in Southern California are here today to talk about your options for tooth loss, including dentures and implant-retained options.
Renew Your Smile With Dentures
There are many reasons a patient may have experienced tooth loss. Accidents and injuries can lead to knocked-out teeth, advanced tooth decay can require extractions, or periodontal disease can also cause gum recession and tooth loss. No matter what the reason for your missing teeth, you need to talk to your dental team as soon as possible to find the right treatment for your needs. If you are missing several teeth throughout your smile, dentures may be an ideal solution for your needs. These can be a complete set or partial, depending on your needs, and a well-made set of dentures looks natural and fits comfortably.
Implants Offer Long-Term Support
Dentures offer several benefits to patients who have lost some of their teeth. They can help you continue to eat your favorite foods, which allows you to get the best nutrients possible as you age. Additionally, a well-made set of dentures can renew your confidence by recreating your smile. Unfortunately, though, a disadvantage of traditional dentures is that they are not secured in place. This means that they do not offer your jawbone the long-term support it needs. To improve this problem and protect your smile, we can support your dentures with implants, which recreate the missing roots of your teeth. This option offers long-term support for your smile by preventing your jawbone from weakening and keeping it strong for many years to come. Additionally, they require minimal maintenance, which makes oral hygiene easier on you as you age.
Mobile Denture Maintenance For Home-Bound Patients
If you or a loved one has dentures, you will need to make sure you keep up with their maintenance to keep them for a long time. We understand that it can be difficult for homebound patients to take proper care of their prosthetics, and that’s where we come in to help. We can bring our ultrasonic cleaning machine to clean tartar and debris from your dentures and help them last.
