Should I get immediate dentures?

If you’ve lost your teeth as a result of illness, decay, or injury, and need full dentures, you may be a good candidate for immediate dentures. Immediate dentures mean you never have to be without teeth. Be aware, though, that as your mouth heals from the loss of your natural teeth and immediate denture inserts, your dentures require relining to ensure the most comfortable and accurate fit over time.

Are partial dentures the right choice for me?

Schedule a free consultation at Cedarwood Pleasanton Dentistry to find out if immediate dentures are a match for your dental needs. Unlike full dentures, which replace all of your natural teeth, partial dentures only replace missing teeth. the dentist or denturist will measure your jaw and build models of your mouth so they can construct your new set of dentures in the lab accurately and efficiently. Partial dentures with metal frames do not need dental adhesives to stay in place. They have clasps that securely anchor to existing teeth.

A more cost-effective alternative is acrylic partial dentures. They tend to be cheaper than partials with metal frames, but they also need to be replaced more often. Acrylic partials are usually a short-term solution that's worn while the dentist makes permanent bridges or partials.

What if I need denture repairs?

At Cedarwood Pleasanton Dentistry, our licensed denturists can repair custom dentures in a matter of hours, sometimes while you wait, depending on the type of repair needed. They can repair your existing or custom set of dentures on-site.
