A confident smile plays an important role in daily life, and missing teeth can affect both appearance and function. At First Arrow Dental, we offer high-quality dentures to help patients regain their ability to eat, speak and smile with ease. Dr. Ryan M. Stukenberg provides custom-fitted dentures designed to restore comfort, functionality and confidence.

Types of Dentures

Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and restore oral function. Depending on individual needs, patients may choose from different types of dentures:

  • Complete Dentures – These replace all teeth in the upper or lower arch. They rest on the gums and are designed for patients who have lost all their natural teeth.
  • Partial Dentures – These are used when some natural teeth remain. Partial dentures fill gaps while preventing existing teeth from shifting.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures – These are secured by dental implants for increased stability and comfort. They offer a more natural feel compared to traditional removable dentures.

Our dentist will work with you to determine the best option for your lifestyle and oral health needs.

Benefits of Dentures

Dentures offer several advantages for patients with missing teeth, including:

  • Improved Appearance – They restore facial structure and prevent a sunken look caused by tooth loss.
  • Enhanced Functionality – Dentures allow patients to eat a wider variety of foods and speak more clearly.
  • Customized Fit – Modern dentures are designed for comfort, ensuring a secure and natural feel.
  • Affordable Solution – Dentures provide a cost-effective option for restoring missing teeth

 

Caring for Your Dentures

Proper maintenance helps extend the life of dentures and keeps your mouth healthy. Patients should:

  • Clean dentures daily using a soft brush and denture cleaner to remove plaque and bacteria.
  • Soak dentures overnight in a mild solution to maintain moisture and shape.
  • Handle dentures with care to avoid accidental damage or breakage.
  • Visit our us regularly for adjustments and to ensure a comfortable fit.
