A Complete Set of Dentures at An Affordable Price
When confronting tooth loss, looking into all the options can be confusing and overwhelming. Our caring staff at 772 Implant strive to make the process as easy as possible for you – giving you all the facts and helping you decide what works best for you. Dr. James Horan provides many different options for tooth loss, including full dentures. If you are considering getting a complete set of dentures, here’s what you should know.
What are Full Dentures?
Full & conventional dentures are used as a removable dental appliance when all of your teeth are missing. Furthermore, if you have a few remaining natural teeth, they can be removed to place full dentures.
Additionally, modern dentures use a hard resin material, such as acrylic, nylon, or metal. They contain a complete set of artificial teeth that rest on a material made to look like your natural gums.
Are full dentures the right choice for me?
Many people assume that dentures are for older people. But truthfully, people as young as 30 can get dentures. Listed below are some of the most common causes of tooth loss that can eventually lead to dentures:
Gum Disease
Gingivitis and periodontitis are the top cause of tooth loss in adults. Gum disease is the reason for 70% of missing teeth in adults.
Cavities/Tooth Decay
Poor oral hygiene causes tooth decay, and if left untreated, often leads to tooth loss.
Poor Nutrition
Eating foods that contain lots of sugar can ultimately lead to tooth decay and subsequent tooth loss. Researchers also think that diets that lack certain essential nutrients can lead to more severe cases of gum disease. An unhealthy diet may cause the teeth in your mouth to be more vulnerable to infection.
Smoking
The chemicals in tobacco can cause many issues in your mouth. Smoking dries out your mouth, damages the tissues in your mouth, and causes your gums to recede. In return, smoking then leads your gums and roots vulnerable to bacteria. Smoking can eventually lead to tooth loss.
Other Medical Conditions
Health issues such as diabetes, hypertension, diabetes, and inflammatory arthritis can cause tooth loss.

Full Dentures Most Common Questions
What are some of the advantages of traditional dentures?
- It is the easiest way to get a complete set of replacement teeth.
- Truly, they are the least expensive kind of dentures.
- Dentures make it possible to eat a wide range of foods.
- Replacement teeth are simple to manage and effortless to remove.
What are some disadvantages of traditional dentures?
- While dentures are lower in cost initially, there are recurring costs associated with them. You will need to stock up on dental adhesive and cleaning solutions. The dentures themselves will need to be refitted or replaced on a regular basis (about every 5 years).
- You need to carefully and frequently clean dentures to avoid gum disease and infection in the mouth.
- Dentures can slip out of place throughout the day or make embarrassing clicking noises if they are loose. When this happens to your dentures, you will need to apply more adhesive to keep them in place.
- With nothing anchored in your mouth, your jawbone does not get the appropriate amount of stimulation. Here is where that saying “use it or lose it” comes into play – as a result, boneless increases with an unstimulated jawbone.
How long does it take to get dentures?
The time it takes for you to get dentures depends on your specific treatment plan. If you need teeth extracted first, your mouth will need some time to heal afterward. After that, your dentist will need to make impressions of your mouth before they can get started on making the dentures.
Next, you may need to come in a few times for fittings and adjustments before your dentures are made and ready to wear.
How do you care for your dentures?
- Brush the dentures daily with a denture cleanser and a soft-bristled brush.
- Rinse your dentures after eating, and be sure to remove any food particles.
- Don't forget to soak your dentures in either water or a denture cleaning solution each night.
- Be sure to clean your mouth after removing your dentures as well.
How much do full dentures cost?
The cost of the entire process depends on whether you will need extractions first. Our office participates with many insurance plans to help with the cost of your dentures. If your insurance will not cover the cost, we have payment plans available.
There are a lot of considerations when deciding whether to get dentures or dental implants. Our experienced team is dedicated to making sure you get the treatment that works best for you and your lifestyle.
