What Are Specialty Dentures?

Specialty dentures are custom dental appliances that are created with modern technology in mind and are usually much lighter and more comfortable than traditional dentures. They’re often crafted using materials that provide you with the best function and appearance possible (like acrylic resin) to give you a very natural looking smile. The base of the denture appliance is made in a dental laboratory using molds that the doctor takes of your jaw and remaining teeth. At the fitting appointment, special care is taken by your Lincoln Park dentists to form and shape the custom dentures to fit your mouth and support your jawline.

Are You a Candidate for Specialty Dentures?

Specialty dentures are for people who are missing anywhere from a few to all of their teeth. The dentists of The Dental Practice of Lincoln Park closely examine the spaces in your teeth as well as your overall oral health to determine if partial or full specialty dentures would be right for you. Generally, if you have problems eating and speaking or if you feel that the shape of your face is changing due to a row of missing teeth, specialty dentures may be right for you.
