Dentures
At Free State Dental, we understand that missing teeth can significantly impact your quality of life, affecting your ability to eat, speak, and confidently smile. Dr. Newkirk, Dr. Adams, Dr. Willms, and Dr. Pham provide high-quality dental care tailored to your needs, including dentures in Lawrence, KS and De Soto, KS.

What Are Dentures?

Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth, restoring functionality and aesthetics. They are custom-made to fit comfortably in your mouth, allowing you to enjoy a variety of foods and maintain a natural-looking smile. There are two main types of dentures: complete dentures and partial dentures. We can recommend complete dentures when all teeth are missing in the upper or lower jaw, while partial dentures are ideal for those who still have some of their healthy natural teeth.

Why Choose Dentures?

Dentures offer numerous benefits for individuals with missing teeth:

  1. Restoration of Functionality: Dentures can help restore your ability to chew and speak clearly.
  2. Enhanced Aesthetics: Dentures can dramatically improve your smile, helping to boost your self-esteem and enabling you to feel more confident in social situations.
  3. Facial Support: Missing teeth can cause the face to sag and appear older. Dentures provide the necessary support to maintain the natural structure of your face, preventing an aging appearance.
  4. Cost-Effectiveness: Dentures can be a more affordable solution for replacing missing teeth than other dental restoration options, such as implants.

Our Denture Services

At Free State Dental, we offer a range of denture options to suit your unique situation:

Complete Dentures

We design complete dentures for those who have lost all their teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. Our experienced dentists will work with you to create a full denture that fits comfortably and looks natural. We use high-quality materials to ensure durability and an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Partial Dentures

If you still have some of your natural teeth, partial dentures may be your best solution. These dentures fill the gaps left by missing teeth while allowing your remaining teeth to remain intact. We tailor partial dentures to fit your mouth perfectly, ensuring they are functional and comfortable.

The Denture Process at Free State Dental

Our process for creating dentures is comprehensive and patient-focused, ensuring you receive the best care throughout your journey to a restored smile.

  1. Initial Exam: Your journey begins with a thorough initial exam, where we will assess your dental needs and discuss your options. Our team will consider your oral health, lifestyle, and personal preferences to help you decide about your denture options.
  2. Custom Fitting: After you choose the right type of denture, we will take precise impressions of your mouth. These measurements are essential for crafting a set of dentures that fit comfortably and securely. We will also create models to ensure the aesthetics and functionality meet your expectations.
  3. Fabrication: Our skilled dental technicians will fabricate your custom dentures in a lab using high-quality materials. This process typically takes a couple of appointments,, but we ensure you are kept informed every step of the way.
  4. Final Fitting and Adjustments: Once your dentures are ready, you will return to our office for the final fitting. We will make any necessary adjustments to ensure you feel comfortable and confident with your new smile. It’s not uncommon for patients to require minor adjustments during the  first few days/weeks as you adapt to your new dentures.
  5. Ongoing Care: At Free State Dental, we don’t stop at just providing you with dentures. We offer ongoing care and support to help you maintain your oral health. Regular check-ups will help us monitor the fit and condition of your dentures, ensuring they continue to serve you well.

We understand that the thought of getting dentures can be daunting for some. Our team at Free State Dental is committed to making your experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. We take the time to listen to your concerns and answer any questions, ensuring you feel fully informed and prepared for your denture journey.
