We’re here to help you enhance your quality of life, not diminish it with annoying dentures that are more trouble than they’re worth. Let us explain some of the basics of dentures.

Keeping Up with Regular Maintenance
It’s true– dentures do require a little extra maintenance when compared to bridges or dental implants. However, this maintenance isn’t difficult when managed well. So long as you follow the guidelines given to you by the team at Laughlin Dental, your denture experience should be smooth sailing. Be sure to adhere to the following advice and schedule regular checkups at Laughlin Dental:
- Follow the direction printed on the packaging for you adhesive
- Only use a soft-bristled toothbrush
- Keep your dentures moist when outside your mouth and soak them every night
Peruse the Different Types of Dentures
There is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to dentures. Contrary to what many of our patients believe, dentures come in a few different forms. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages that our team will make you aware of before you decide. Dentures can typically be classified as one of the following:
These dentures are an excellent choice if you're only missing some of your teeth. Partial dentures are typically recommended for patients without strong enough teeth to support bridges but still want a natural appearance.
When most of us think of dentures, we picture complete dentures. This solution replaces a full mouth of teeth with artificial ones that look and feel natural. Most patients don't find difficulty eating or speaking with complete dentures.
If your jawbone can support dental implants, permanent dentures may be the way to go. This option provides more stable artificial teeth that look just like new.
Don’t Forget the Numerous Benefits of Dentures
If you can overlook the additional maintenance, you’ll find a world of benefits associated with your dentures. From a physical health perspective, dentures prevent the structure of your face from shifting over time to fill the gap that results from missing teeth. Our patients also find eating, chewing, and speaking much easier than when they were missing teeth. Finally, the patients that visit our Pasadena, TX office report greater self-confidence and pride in their appearance. Whether you’re in it for the functionality or aesthetic benefits, dentures from Laughlin Dental may be the perfect choice for you.
