If your experience with dentures is reminiscing about your grandmother’s false teeth, you’re in for a big surprise. Improvements are being made every day, and dentures have come a long way. In fact, you probably know someone who has dentures, but with today’s dentures you cannot even tell they are fake.

In the past, there were two primary problems with dentures – they looked bad and fit even worse. A bad fit means pain and difficulty chewing and speaking. Today’s technology allows us to craft dentures that not only fit precisely but are shaped to match your natural teeth.

The materials we use today look real and alive, matching your natural color and the translucency of real tooth enamel.

Best of all, neuromuscular dentistry has even further perfected the fit of dentures, taking into account the alignment of your bite, so the when you chew or bite down, your dentures meet up properly. Old dentures just didn’t work that way. If your dentures don’t line up perfectly, they can be pushed out of place, make it difficult to bite down properly, and generally create pain. They will wear out faster too.

New dentures are comfortable, beautiful, and long-lasting.
