Why do you need dentures?

When you lose natural teeth due to decay or injury, it can impact your ability to speak clearly and chew comfortably. Choosing to replace missing teeth helps restore the structural support for your cheeks and lips while protecting your remaining oral health. Dr. Forcioli provides personalized care to help you find the right solution for your unique smile.

Types of dentures we offer

At Forcioli Family Dentistry, we provide both complete and partial dentures depending on how many teeth you need to replace. Complete options rest on your gums to replace a full arch, while partials use your remaining natural teeth as stable anchors. We can also discuss implant-supported options that secure your dentures firmly in place for added stability.

Our custom dentures process

Our team takes the time to design custom dentures that match the natural shape and shade of your smile. We begin by taking precise impressions of your mouth to ensure a comfortable and secure fit. Dr. Forcioli will adjust the final appliance so you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Denture Care & Maintenance

Proper care is essential to keep your removeable dentures clean and free from harmful bacteria. You should brush your appliance daily with a soft-bristled brush and soak it in a specialized cleaning solution when you are not wearing it. Regular visits to our office allow us to check the fit of your appliance and monitor your overall oral health.

How long does it take to get used to dentures?

It is completely normal for new custom dentures to feel a bit awkward or loose during the first few weeks of wear. Your tongue and cheek muscles simply need a little time to learn how to keep the appliance properly in place. Practicing reading aloud and eating softer foods can help speed up your adjustment process.

Should I wear dentures at night?

We generally recommend removing your removeable dentures before you go to sleep to give your gum tissues a chance to rest. Removing them at night prevents irritation and allows natural saliva to clean your gums and keep them healthy. Storing your appliance in water overnight ensures that it maintains its proper shape and does not dry out.

Will they change my appearance?

Modern dentures are carefully designed to closely resemble your natural teeth and enhance your overall facial structure. By supporting your cheeks and lips, they prevent the sagging appearance that often occurs after tooth loss. You can look forward to a completely refreshed smile that helps you feel like yourself again.
