Though many advances have been made in the field of dentistry, loss of teeth is still an ongoing problem. In the United States, 26% of adults between the ages of sixty-five and seventy-five have lost all of their teeth. Currently, there are a number of options available. One of the most versatile and affordable is a set of removable dentures. Loss of teeth and expensive treatment options don’t have to prevent you from continuing to lead a healthy and happy life.

Standard Full Dentures
Standard full dentures are dentures that comprise a full set of upper and lower teeth. This type of denture uses suction to stay in place. In some cases, denture adhesive is required to secure the dentures to the gums.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are dentures that replace only a limited number of teeth, not an entire set. Partial dentures are a single piece fitting that is supported by the remaining teeth and gums. They are much more secure than standard full dentures and denture adhesive is usually not required.
