What Type of Denture Is Right for You?

Full Dentures

For patients who have lost all teeth in the upper or lower arch. Custom-fitted for a natural look and stable, comfortable wear.

Partial Dentures

For patients missing some but not all teeth. Partials clip onto remaining natural teeth and fill in the gaps with natural-looking replacements.

Immediate Dentures

Placed the same day as extractions so you're never without teeth during the healing process. Ask Dr. Hoover if this is an option for your situation.

Dentures & Partial Dentures FAQs

Find answers to common questions about restoring your smile with professional denture care.

What is the difference between full and partial dentures?

Full dentures replace all teeth in an upper or lower arch, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain, filling gaps and preventing shifting.

How long does it take to get used to new dentures?

It typically takes a few weeks to adjust. During this time, your mouth muscles learn to hold them in place, and minor adjustments may be needed for a perfect fit.

Can dentures be repaired if they break?

Yes, many repairs can be handled in our office. It's important to bring them in as soon as possible and avoid using DIY kits, which can cause permanent damage.

How often should I have my dentures checked?

We recommend at least one annual visit to check the fit, integrity, and comfort of your dentures, as well as the health of your supporting tissues.

What are immediate dentures?

Immediate dentures are prepared in advance and placed immediately following tooth extraction, so you never have to be without teeth during the healing process.
