Dentures in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Dentures

Modern dentures are one of the most reliable methods of tooth replacement. Don’t be swayed by any preconceived notions about your grandparents’ fake teeth. Customized denture appliances are a viable solution that looks natural, feels great, and delivers a beautiful, functional, healthy smile. Dr. Charmaine Johnson and her dental care team at Premier Smile Center in Fort Lauderdale are ready to help you determine if dentures or another type of restoration is right for you.

Benefits of Customized Modern Dentures

Missing teeth are a big problem for any smile, and they can only be replaced with restorative dentistry. Some people opt for dental implants, others get a dental bridge, but many say yes to personalized dentures because they want benefits like:

• Convenience
• Comfort
• Affordability
• Custom fit
• Reliability
• Ease of use
• Natural appearance

Millions of Americans are missing teeth, whether from age, accident, or infection. When you have holes in your smile – front teeth, molars, or otherwise – you know your confidence takes a hit. You want to feel good about yourself on the job, with friends, on the screen, and at play. Dentures make it all possible.

Types of Dentures

When most people think of dentures, they imagine television’s version of someone losing their teeth or struggling with adhesive. Sure, these circumstances can happen, but not if you have personalized appliances that fit you properly. These oral appliances are made in different forms to accommodate the number of missing teeth and where they are in your mouth. Some of the most common options include:

• Implant dentures: It’s hard to improve the combination of dental implants and modern dentures. The implants are surgically placed in the jawbone and dentures are permanently attached to the posts. That means nothing covering the roof of your mouth and no removable appliances, plus teeth that function flawlessly.
• Partial dentures: If you’re missing several teeth in the same area of your mouth, this small appliance may be just the right restoration. Its base is tinted to blend in with the color of your gums and the metal framework easily snaps in and fills the gaps in your smile with natural-looking prosthetic teeth.
• Full dentures: When people think about dentures, most of them visualize the appliance that fits on the roof of the mouth and replaces an entire arch of missing teeth. This restoration requires adhesive to stay put, does cover the palate, and must be removed and cleaned daily – minor inconveniences when it comes to finally replacing missing teeth.

Are You a Good Candidate for Dentures?

Everyone is different, and you may not be concerned about the logistics of this type of appliance as much as you’re concerned about budget. If your goal is to complete your smile and replace missing teeth affordably and quickly, these usually fit the bill. The great thing is, with today’s restorative dentistry innovations, you’re getting an excellent product:

• Eat with confidence
• Smile happily
• Look better
• Speak articulately
• Feel better

The person you need to talk to is Dr. Johnson at Premier Smile Center in Fort Lauderdale.

Remember, there is always a solution for repairing a broken-down smile. Listen to the recommendations and advice of your experienced dentist, and don’t be afraid to say yes if they’re the most appropriate smile makeover for you.

Always the best experience. I’ve been seeing her since she started her first dental office. And Dr Johnson and her staff are great. Beast quality service. No “upselling” dental cosmetics but they have everything and anything on hand if you do decide to make a small cosmetic change. And the optional stuff is reasonably priced if you choose that route. Honest and sincere. A+ team

“I have been going to Premier Smile for at least five years now for both cosmetic and regular preventative care. The office staff and hygienists have always been wonderful and their communication is top notch. Like many others my time is valuable and when I have an appointment I am seen in a very timely manner. I have had some extensive cosmetic work done over the years and came away very pleased with the results. In addition, I have appreciated that Dr. Johnson has personally called me the following day to check-in. Treatment plans are explained thoroughly and the follow-up is exceptional… you are not forgotten after you walk out the door. I have referred a number of friends and co-workers to the Premier Smile office over the years and will continue to do so in the future!”
