In the heart of Memorial, near the thriving Energy Corridor and Memorial City, lies Houston Prosthodontic Specialists, a haven of dental restoration excellence. Dr. Xavier Saab, Dr. Neal Gittleman, and Dr. B. Peter El-Dahdah lead our clinic, offering advanced solutions in dentures and partials to restore smiles and functionality.

Dentures and partials are not just about replacing lost teeth; they're about restoring quality of life, enhancing smile aesthetics, and improving overall oral function. We provide various options tailored to individual needs including:

• Complete Dentures: For patients missing all their teeth in an arch, complete dentures offer a full set of prosthetic teeth mounted on a gum-colored base.
  
• Partial Dentures: For those with some natural teeth remaining, partial dentures fill in the gaps and are often secured with clasps or attachments to natural teeth.
  
• Implant-Supported Dentures: Combining the stability of dental implants with the coverage of dentures, this option offers enhanced security and improved chewing ability.

The Impact of Dentures on Oral Health

Dentures do more than just fill the gaps left by missing teeth; they play a crucial role in maintaining overall oral health and well-being:

• Preserving Facial Structure: Dentures support the facial muscles and structure, preventing the sagging and shrinking of facial contours that often occur with tooth loss.
  
• Preventing Bone Loss: By distributing the forces of chewing and biting, dentures can help to stimulate and preserve the jawbone, reducing bone resorption.
  
• Improving Chewing Function: Replacing missing teeth with dentures restores chewing efficiency, which can improve digestion and nutrition.

A Step-by-Step Look at Treatment

While each treatment is personalized, our general approach to dentures and partials involves:

1. Thorough Assessment: We start with a comprehensive evaluation of your oral health and discuss your lifestyle needs to determine the most suitable type of dentures.
   
2. Precision Fit: Utilizing digital impressions and advanced fabrication techniques, we ensure your dentures or partials fit comfortably and look natural.
   
3. Quality Materials: Our dentures are made from high-quality materials that mimic the appearance of natural teeth and gums for a lifelike smile.
   

Adjusting to life with dentures can be a journey, but with the right guidance, it can be a smooth and positive experience. Here are some practical tips to help you adapt to your new dentures:

• Eating with Dentures: Start with soft foods cut into small pieces and chew slowly using both sides of your mouth. Gradually introduce more varied textures as you become accustomed to your dentures.
  
• Speaking Clearly: Practice speaking aloud to get used to the feel of the dentures. Reading out loud and repeating difficult words can help improve clarity.
  
• Denture Care: Clean your dentures daily using a soft-bristled brush and non-abrasive cleaner. Soak them overnight in a denture-cleaning solution to keep them moist and maintain their shape.
  
• Regular Check-Ups: Visit your dentist regularly to ensure your dentures fit properly and to make adjustments as needed. This will help prevent discomfort and improve functionality.
