Missing teeth can have a profound impact on your desire to smile. Many patients feel helpless and overwhelmed by the perceived high cost of replacing their teeth. Ultimately, this leaves their self-confidence and quality of life to suffer. At New Health Dental in Mesa, AZ, we offer patients an affordable and effective way to replace their missing teeth and restore their smile and self-esteem.

There is a variety of different methods for replacing teeth. Dentures are typically more affordable than dental implants and can be a great option for those who may not be able to afford implant treatment. Dentures are effective at filling in the gap from missing teeth and helping to restore structure and support to the contours of your face.

Dentures are available in two forms:

Partial – used for one or more missing teeth and are made to fit around existing teeth
Full – used to replace an entire arch of teeth, either the top, bottom, or sometimes both

Many patients avoid dentures out of fear that they will be uncomfortable or look unnatural. Dr. Fritz is an expert at working with dentures. He is able to provide you with new set of teeth that are both natural looking and comfortable. Dr. Fritz advises all patients of the adjustment period with new dentures. The muscles in your mouth will need time to adapt to performing daily activities like chewing and speaking. The awkwardness will fade after a few weeks and patients will be left with a beautiful new smile.

A correct fit is the most important factor in ensuring your dentures are comfortable. Dr. Fritz will work with you to evaluate the fit. It is important that you let him know if you feel any pain.

To ensure your dentures are long lasting and working properly, make sure to take good care of them. Clean them daily and avoid sleeping in them after the initial adjustment period. Store your dentures in a clean and safe place to avoid accidental breakage.

At New Health Dental, we offer our patients several different options to restore the appearance of their smile. Don’t let missing teeth make you miss out on enjoying your life to the fullest. Call our office today to schedule a consultation.
