Dentures
Types of Dentures We Offer
Dentures are artificial teeth that replace missing teeth to restore the look and function of your smile. There are a few different types of dentures you can choose from depending on your needs.
Complete dentures are also known as full dentures. This type of denture is designed to replace an entire dental arch of missing teeth.
Partial dentures replace multiple missing teeth along a dental arch. A partial denture can also be used to restore multiple areas of tooth loss.
Traditional dentures, either complete or partial, rest along your gums and rely on suction or denture adhesive to remain in place. This type of denture is easily removable.
Dentures can also be supported by dental implants, which are titanium posts that are surgically placed into your jawbone. Dentures supported by implants remain firmly in place and are not removable.
Take a Look at How Partial Dentures Work
Removable partial dentures rest along the gums and are anchored in place by small wires that wrap around the bottoms of your natural teeth. This type of denture can be a great choice for patients who still have some teeth remaining.
Dentures Can Address Multiple Types of Tooth Loss
Complete Tooth Loss
Full dentures can be used to address complete tooth loss along one or both dental arches.
Localized Tooth Loss
Partial dentures can fill in the gaps caused by several consecutive missing teeth.
Multiple Areas
Partial dentures can also fill in the gaps in multiple areas where tooth loss has occurred.

Denture Candidacy You may be a good candidate for dentures if you:
Have Significant Tooth Loss
Dentures are best for patients missing most or all of their natural teeth. If you are only missing a few teeth, our practice in Westfield, MA, offers comprehensive treatment options such as implant-supported crowns and bridges.
Are in Good Oral Health
Your mouth and gums must be healthy before you can receive dentures. Issues such as tooth decay, infection, and gum disease must first be addressed to ensure a healthy foundation for your restoration. We offer a range of procedures that can get your oral health back on track.
Have Good Bone Density
Implant dentures require a healthy jawbone to support them. If you suffer from jawbone atrophy, you may still qualify for implant-supported dentures using the All-on-4® or All-on-6® method. For those with significant bone loss, bone grafting may be needed before you can receive your dentures.
