Three Types of Dentures

At Perfect Smile Dental Group in Whittier, CA, our dentist is highly trained in three types of dentures: Complete dentures, partial dentures, and implant-supported overdentures.

Complete Dentures

These dentures are a cost-effective restorative dental treatment for patients with no teeth.

Metal Framework Partial Dentures

These options are an inexpensive restorative dental treatment for patients with “some” missing teeth. Plastic denture teeth replace the missing teeth. The partial denture is anchored to the remaining teeth with metal clasps (hooks).

Overdentures

These dentures are the best treatment in Whittier, CA, offering the highest comfort and retention to prevent embarrassing slipping. The complete denture is anchored down by 2-4 implants placed in the jawbone.

Denture Home Care

After receiving dental services in Whittier, you must follow these instructions to keep your dentures in good shape:

Daily soaking of the dentures you receive in Whittier, CA, in water with a denture cleaning tablet such as Polident or Efferdent helps prevent fungal infections.
Use a denture toothbrush to clean out food debris lodged between your denture teeth.
Avoid brushing your dentures with your regular toothbrush and toothpaste. This practice can scratch dentures, allowing bacteria to reside in the small cracks and creating a foul odor. Use a Denture Toothbrush to remove food debris instead.

FAQs

What is the average cost of top and bottom dentures?

A set of complete dentures for the top and bottom arches costs around $3,000-$4,000 on average. The cost of dentures in Whittier, CA, varies based on your:

Aesthetic goals
Unique dental condition

Does it hurt to get dentures?

Dentures rub on your gums and your cheeks when you first receive dental services in Whittier, irritating the surrounding areas. Your dentist must make several adjustments to your dentures so they become comfortable and fit in your mouth.

How many years can you wear dentures?

Dentures can last 5-10 years, depending on your overall oral hygiene. However, they can last longer if you maintain them well and follow our aftercare instructions.

Can you get permanent dentures if you have no teeth?

Depending on the number of teeth you have, your dentist in Whittier, CA, may recommend different types of dentures:

Complete dentures are ideal for patients with no teeth.
Partial dentures are suitable for patients who have some remaining teeth.

Is it OK to go without dentures?

After tooth loss, without getting dentures or dental implants in Whittier, CA, the dimensions of your face change and begin to lose their shape. You will experience sagging skin around the eyes and mouth. Eventually, it will result in the appearance of a “collapsed face” due to significant bone loss.

What are the most natural-looking denture materials?

Dentures usually consist of plastic teeth. The most realistic-looking dentures in Whittier, CA, are made with porcelain teeth. Porcelain denture teeth are more esthetic and resistant to wear and tear. Porcelain denture teeth are more expensive compared to resin (plastic) denture teeth.

What type of dentures are the most natural-looking?

Implant-supported dentures offer the highest retention and natural-looking appearance among restorative dental services in Whittier, CA, as they closely resemble the function and appearance of natural teeth.

Can you sleep with dentures on?

You should wear the dentures you receive in Whittier, CA, during the day and soak them overnight in a cup with a denture-cleaning tablet. This soaking will kill bacteria and prevent fungus from forming in the mouth.

Should you brush your gums if you have no teeth?

Although you no longer have teeth, your tongue and gums still need to be kept clean by gently brushing them. You can also rinse your mouth with mouthwash to prevent oral fungus and unpleasant odors.

What is a better option than dentures?

If you don’t want to get dentures in Whittier, CA, you can opt for implants. Dental implants in Whittier, CA, are a better option than dentures because they mimic your real teeth.

With dental implants, there is no hassle of removing your denture to clean after a meal. Dental implants function, look, and feel like your real teeth.

What type of foods should I avoid after getting my dentures?

Foods to avoid after receiving dentures or other restorative dental services in Whittier include hard and chewy foods.

Avoid These Hard Foods:

Nuts
Chips
Candy
Popcorn

These foods can cause the dentures you get in Whittier, CA, to slip or crack.

Avoid These Chewy Foods:

Sticky candy can pull your dentures off and trap bacteria beneath them.

Can you bite into an apple with dentures?

Dentures consist of acrylic and plastic teeth. Therefore, they can break when biting into hard foods. You should not snap into an apple as this can break your denture. Cut your apples into smaller pieces instead.

Can you eat steak with the dentures you get in Whittier, CA?

Dentures exert less chewing force than natural teeth. Steak can be hard to chew, but you don’t have to avoid steak entirely. You can still enjoy steak by cutting it up into small pieces.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently visited Perfect Smile for a teeth cleaning, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment I walked through the door, the staff greeted me warmly and made me feel right at home. Dr. Yang performed my cleaning was highly skilled and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain each step of the process, making sure I was comfortable and informed throughout. Their gentle touch and attention to detail were truly commendable. The facilities at Perfect smile were immaculate and well-maintained. The waiting area was cozy and inviting, with comfortable seating and a soothing ambiance. The dental equipment used during my cleaning appeared state-of-the-art, and I felt confident in the level of care I was receiving. The entire staff at Perfect smile was friendly, professional, and genuinely cared about my well-being. They answered all my questions patiently and provided valuable oral hygiene tips to maintain my dental health. It's evident that they prioritize patient satisfaction and go above and beyond to ensure a positive experience. What impressed me the most was the thoroughness of the cleaning. My teeth felt incredibly clean and refreshed afterward, and I left with a brighter smile. The hygienist even gave me personalized recommendations to improve certain areas of my oral hygiene routine, which I greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Perfect smile to anyone seeking top-notch dental care. Their commitment to excellence, friendly atmosphere, and skilled professionals make them stand out among other dental offices in the area. I will definitely be returning for future dental treatments and cleanings. Thank you for providing such outstanding service and making my dental cleaning experience a truly pleasant one!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I haven’t been to the dentist in a few years. My last dentist would always say my teeth are fine and no further work needed even though I would complain about pain. It wasn’t a surprise when I decided to finally look for a new dentist due to the pain that I would need to get 9 fillings. Sarahy is the absolute best. She’s super friendly/professional. She explained my insurance cost and even provided payment plans. Dr Yang made the fillings as painless as can be. He thoroughly explained the process of what was going to be done before, explained the aftercare and answered any questions I had. I will definitely be recommending family and friends.

 Verified I can't say enough great things about this dentist! My son came in with a very painful toothache, and the doctor got us in quickly and immediately helped him get relief. What really stood out was how thorough and caring he was. He took detailed pictures of my son's teeth, displayed them on the screen, and walked us through everything step by step. He explained what he was seeing in a way that was easy to understand and made sure we felt comfortable and informed before making any decisions. His bedside manner was outstanding--friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely caring. You can tell he loves what he does and truly wants his patients to understand their dental health. The entire experience was professional, stress-free, and reassuring. Front office is outstanding as well. If you're looking for a dentist who provides exceptional care and outstanding customer service, I highly recommend him. 10/10 experience. We are so grateful for the care my son received!

 Verified I found this office through Yelp, and the amazing staff reviews are what convinced me to give them a try. I'm happy to say they were absolutely right on the 1st day! From my first phone call, Sarah was friendly, welcoming, and helped verify my insurance. I shared that I hadn't been to the dentist in a while and have a strong gag reflex, and everyone was incredibly understanding and accommodating. The dentist was kind, informative, and never judgmental. Sarah also took the time to explain my treatment plan, payment options, and next steps. The entire team made me feel comfortable and cared for so far.
