Dentures

Missing teeth can create a host of aesthetic and functional problems including sagging facial muscles, inability to eat certain foods and speak. It can also cause depression and frustration, as many people hide their smile or cover their mouth with their hand as to hide the fact that they have no teeth. Dentures may be your best solution if you've lost your natural teeth due to periodontal disease, tooth decay, substance abuse or injury.

Fitting a patient for dentures does not have to be a traumatic experience. During the preliminary visit, Dr. Merritt will evaluate all aspects of your partial or full denture. She will go over expectations of a denture, as unfortunately our natural teeth cannot mimic a denture. Her expertise in dentures will calm even the most nervous patient. She will give you a treatment plan and discuss all options with you so that a perfect choice will be given.

There are many phases to a denture and at times it can take up to 3-4 months to get the perfect fit and the right look. Dentures take time and patience is often needed as we want the best fit and the best look.
