Full Dentures
Full dentures replace all the teeth in an upper or lower arch. They rest on your gums and stay put through the natural suction of a well-fitted base. Modern materials, digital design, and lifelike tooth molds mean today’s dentures look beautifully natural — gone are the days of obviously fake teeth. Your denture is designed around your facial proportions, lip support, and smile line so the result looks like you — only refreshed.
Partial Dentures
A partial denture is an option when you still have some healthy natural teeth. A thin, comfortable framework clips onto your remaining teeth and holds replacement teeth exactly where they belong. Partials are reversible, non-invasive, and lighter on the budget than bridges or implants, which makes them a smart starting point for a lot of our neighbors in Charlottesville who need to balance cost with function.
Implant-Supported Dentures
If you’ve worn traditional dentures and struggled with slipping, sore spots, or lost chewing power, implant-supported dentures can genuinely change your life. Two to four dental implants placed into your jaw hold the denture firmly where it belongs. You can eat with confidence, speak clearly, and laugh without a second thought. The whole implant program is handled in-house with 3D CBCT imaging so everything is planned precisely before the first procedure — one office, one team, one plan.
Fit, Adjustments, and Care
A great denture experience comes down to a great fit. You’ll have multiple unhurried impressions, bite records, and a trial try-in before your final denture is delivered, so every detail can be fine-tuned around you. Expect a little short-term soreness as your mouth settles in — that’s normal, and a few simple adjustments usually take care of it. With nightly cleaning, soaking, and a yearly professional check, your well-made denture can serve you for 7 to 10 years or longer.
