Dentures in Hammond, LA

If you're looking to replace missing teeth, full or partial dentures may be a great option for you. Removable dentures can restore the appearance of your smile and allow you to once again eat and speak with confidence. MINT dentistry’s team of dental professionals offers either full or partial removable dentures for anyone who wants a gorgeous smile. A full denture can replace all the teeth in the bottom and top arches. Partial dentures are used when a number of teeth have been lost and rely on the remaining natural teeth for support. At MINT dentistry, we will help you choose whether partial or full dentures fit your situation and then have your dentures made custom to look and feel natural. Contact us to schedule an initial consultation at our advanced facility to get more information on dentures and how MINT dentistry in Hammond, LA can help you transform your smile.

If you have suffered the loss of all or most of your teeth, but your gums and jawbone are still strong and healthy, you might be an ideal candidate for dentures. You may still have some natural teeth, which can either be extracted for a full denture or kept intact for a partial denture. During your initial consultation at our Hammond, LA dental center, a member of the MINT dentistry team will assess your oral health, then talk about your options based on your needs and goals, as well as your budget. If you are missing some or all of your teeth, schedule a consultation to learn more about full and partial removable dentures.

Our MINT dentistry team will begin your appointment by inviting you to relax in a massaging treatment chair in one of our state-of-the-art treatment rooms. We'll offer you a pair of Beats headphones so you can listen to music or watch a show on one of our flat-screen televisions. After sliding on stylish MINT sunglasses, your procedure will start. In some cases, we may perform an extraction before taking impressions that will be used to create your dentures. Partial dentures will be shaded to match your remaining teeth for a seamless appearance. After your dentures are crafted in a professional dental lab, they will be inserted and adjusted so they are comfortable, secure, and look natural in your mouth. We will then teach you the best way to care for your dentures, including how to clean and store them.

It may take a little while for you to speak and eat naturally once you receive your dentures, but in time, you should get used to them. If your dentures feel loose, speak with a member of the MINT dentistry team so your dentures can be adjusted for a better fit. At home, you will need to keep your dentures clean by brushing them twice a day. When you remove your dentures, they should be soaked in water so they do not dry out.
