We want to help you always feel confident when you show off your smile. Which is why when you suffer from advanced tooth loss, we want to help. With a complete set of dentures, we can secure a new and beautiful smile! In today’s blog, your El Paso, TX, dentists talk about how we design and create custom complete dentures.
What Happens Following Total Tooth Loss
When you lose most of your teeth, this severely limits your meal options. Subsisting solely on soft foods could deprive you of crucial nutrients. Speaking clearly could be a robe, and your lack of teeth could make you feel self-conscious in social situations. Since the body no longer sends doses of phosphates and calcium to the jaw around the lost roots, your jaw could lose mass and density, breaking down to cause you to look significantly older. But with a set of dental implant dentures, we can prevent these complications and preserve your youthful facial features, and restore your ability to eat your favorite foods too!
Creating Your Custom Denture
First, we will take a close look at your smile. If you have a few teeth remaining, we could gently extract them and then take detailed digital images of your smile, which we use to create a 3D impression, one that is more precise and accurate than a physical one. In a dental lab, we use this to design your new dentures and to choose the best positions for dental implants. The prosthetic will contain new teeth set in an acrylic base. The teeth will be made from porcelain for a lifelike appearance and a durable chewing surface, and the base will look like gum tissue.
Attaching Your New Smile
Our team will employ digital surgical guides to insert the post at specific angles and positions, so they can support a prosthetic and also stimulate the growth of new jawbone tissue to preserve your smile. Once in place, we can attach abutments to them, which allow us to connect your new prosthetic. Your prosthetic will be fixed and will never slip when you eat or speak. They can last for years to come, decades to a lifetime in some cases. You will be able to smile with confidence, speak clearly, and enjoy your favorite meals again.
