Damurjian and Dr. Mark A. Nasr, we help individuals regain full, confident smiles with expertly crafted dentures.

What Are Dentures?

Dentures are removable dental prosthetics used to replace missing teeth and restore oral function. Depending on your needs, dentures may be used to replace a full arch of teeth (complete dentures) or several missing teeth on one or both sides of the mouth (partial dentures). Today’s dentures are designed for optimal comfort, fit, and aesthetics—allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Types of Dentures We Offer

1. Full Dentures
   Complete dentures are used when all teeth in the upper or lower jaw are missing. They sit on top of the gums and are custom-fitted for comfort and a natural look.
2. Partial Dentures
   Partial dentures are ideal for patients who still have some healthy teeth. They fill in the gaps while preserving your natural teeth and maintaining proper bite alignment.
3. Transitional Dentures
   Temporary partial or full dentures may be used during the healing phase after tooth extraction before permanent prosthetics are placed.
4. Implant-Supported Dentures
   Looking for added stability? Explore implant-supported dentures or implant overdentures, which use dental implants to anchor the denture securely in place.
5. Digital Dentures
   Using advanced digital technology, we can create precise, fast, and comfortable digital dentures with a streamlined fabrication process.

Who’s a Good Candidate for Dentures?

You may be a strong candidate for full or partial dentures if you:

• Are missing multiple teeth or a full arch
• Have difficulty chewing or speaking due to tooth loss
• Want a non-surgical, cost-effective tooth replacement
• Are not a candidate for dental implants due to bone loss or health conditions
• Need a short-term solution before permanent implant therapy

If necessary, we may recommend tooth extractions or bone grafting to prepare for your denture fitting.

The Denture Process

Here’s what to expect:

1. Comprehensive Evaluation
   We begin with a full oral exam, X-rays, and treatment planning. If extractions are needed, they’ll be completed first with gentle care and the option for oral conscious sedation or nitrous oxide.
2. Impressions & Measurements
   We take detailed impressions of your gums and any remaining teeth to ensure your dentures fit naturally and securely.
3. Denture Fabrication
   Your custom dentures are crafted at a trusted dental lab or created digitally, depending on the selected method.
4. Fitting & Adjustments
   Once ready, your dentures will be placed, adjusted for comfort, and fine-tuned to ensure proper bite and aesthetics.
5. Ongoing Support
   Regular checkups allow us to monitor fit, provide relines or adjustments, and address any concerns.
