Advantages of Dentures

Are you considering visiting Lower Valley Dental Associates for dentures in Brownsville, TX? Dentures offer a number of fantastic benefits you'll definitely want to consider.

  • Restore Mouth Function: Stop avoiding your favorite foods. Today's strong dentures allow you to properly chew all of the foods you haven't been able to enjoy in a while. Whether it's apples, chips or nuts, there are some foods you simply need a proper set of teeth to eat.
  • Restore Your Beautiful Smile: Missing teeth can make smiling embarrassing and uncomfortable. Stop hiding your smile with a quality set of new dentures. Your new smile will look so natural and beautiful, you won't be able to stop showing it off to everyone you meet.
  • Improve Your Overall Health: Teeth aren't just important for eating and smiling; they also provide the structure that your mouth needs to retain its shape. Dentures are a great way to support your facial muscles and structures and to decrease your oral bone loss so your entire face continues looking great.
  • Easy to Afford: Some dental treatments can be very costly. Thankfully, dentures from Lower Valley Dental are a very affordable tooth replacement option.

How Do Removable Dentures Work?

Removable denture types

Full or partial dentures consist of a gum-colored base made of plastic resin, which fits over the remaining alveolar (bone) ridge that formerly held the teeth. The prosthetic teeth projecting from the base are designed to look and function just like your natural teeth. Dentures are held in place primarily by the suctioning effect of their close fit against the alveolar ridges — that's why it's so important that they are fitted properly. The upper denture also gets extra support from the large surface area of the roof of the mouth (palate), which generally makes it extremely stable.

At first, wearing dentures may require some getting used to in terms of talking and eating, as the dentures become “balanced” in the space formerly occupied by the teeth. But over time, the muscles, nerves and ligaments of the mouth learn to work in new ways, which allows these functions to occur normally. Dentures also help support the facial skeleton and the soft tissues of the lips and cheeks, which can help create a more youthful appearance.

If you're ready to recapture your smile and reclaim your life,
dentures from Lower Valley Dental Associates may just be your very next step.
