You have several options to replace missing teeth, including full and partial dentures. If you worry that they will look fake or unnatural, we would love to tell you about modern dentures at Echeverri Dental Center that look more like real teeth than ever!
How Tooth Loss Impacts Dental Health
Tooth loss creates problems that dramatically affect your oral health. Missing teeth change your dental bite and cause wear and tear on the remaining teeth that have to overcompensate. Your intact teeth can also shift out of alignment, causing pain and discomfort.
Missing teeth also alter your facial appearance because your jaw relies on your teeth to stay strong and healthy. After tooth loss, your jaw begins to weaken, which gives your face a sunken appearance that makes you look older.
Missing Teeth and Your Daily Life
Missing teeth can affect your daily activities. Eating and chewing with missing teeth is complicated, and you may have to give up many of the foods you enjoy. Your speech can also become slurred without teeth for support.
Natural-Looking Dentures in Houston, TX
Fortunately, you don’t have to live with the discomfort of missing teeth. We offer natural-looking dentures at Echeverri Dental Center in Spring Branch East to restore your smile to full comfort, beauty, and functionality.
There are several options, including traditional full and partial dentures and implant-supported dentures.
Full and Partial Dentures
We customize traditional full or partial dentures to replace some, most, or all of your missing teeth. Our traditional dentures are made to look realistic and lifelike and allow you to chew comfortably and speak clearly. With traditional dentures, you can reclaim your life and return to all the activities you enjoy.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures provide more stability and security than traditional dentures. Implant dentures also promote better jaw health by offering greater support to the jaw through synthetic tooth roots.
The synthetic tooth root is made from a titanium alloy post connected to a porcelain crown by an abutment connector. With implant-supported dentures, you can have a fully functioning smile again!
