What are my options for custom dentures?

Balcones Family Dental offers two excellent choices for custom dentures:

Full Dentures

Full dentures are removable prosthetic devices used to replace an entire arch of missing teeth. Crafted from durable materials like acrylic or porcelain, full dentures are custom-made to fit snugly over the gums and replicate the appearance and function of natural teeth. They restore the appearance of your smile as well as your ability to speak and chew comfortably. Full dentures can significantly improve quality of life for individuals with complete tooth loss, restoring confidence and facial aesthetics.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are removable prosthetic devices designed to replace one or more missing teeth within an arch. They consist of replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored base, often made from acrylic or metal, which clasps onto adjacent natural teeth for stability. Partial dentures not only fill in gaps left by missing teeth but also prevent neighboring teeth from shifting out of alignment. Custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth, partial dentures blend seamlessly with your smile, restoring both function and aesthetics.
