Are Dentures a Good Option?

Could dentures improve your oral health after tooth loss? 

Maintaining healthy teeth is vitally important for our health. While teeth are fairly resilient, they can also fall victim to injuries, infection, and decay. Millions of Americans deal with tooth loss every year, and if you’re one of them you may be wondering if dentures could help. Dentures have been a popular option for decades. Our Cumberland, RI, dentists Dr. Angeles Felix, and Dr. Alicia Tavares can easily customize them to your needs.

Here are some of the top reasons to consider dentures:

They are affordable 

One of the biggest factors when it comes to choosing the right tooth replacement option is affordability. Here in Cumberland, RI, our dental team is dedicated to making sure that you get the dental care you deserve without the money concerns. Dentures provide a safe, cost-effective solution that won’t break the bank. If you have dental insurance, it could cover up to 50 percent of your procedure.

They restore functionality back into your smile 

When you have gaps in your teeth it can impact everything from your speech to chewing. If you find mealtimes to be a challenge due to tooth loss, rest assured that dentures can make it far easier to eat anything you want.

They can improve your appearance 

Missing teeth can take a toll on your appearance and self-esteem. Luckily, getting dentures means that you now have a full set of teeth once again. Knowing that you can safely and confidently smile and talk thanks to your beautiful-looking false teeth is life-changing.

They are versatile

Say you get dentures and then decide down the road that you actually want dental implants after all because they can anchor your false teeth into place more permanently than adhesives can. As long as your jawbone is still healthy and strong, and you are maintaining good oral health, our Cumberland, RI, family dentists can place dental implants to hold your dentures in place.

If you are tired of tooth loss and want to get your smile back, our Cumberland, RI, family dentists, Dr. Felix, and Dr. Tavares can help you decide if dentures are the best way to go. Call Dental Associates of Cumberland today at (401) 723-0350 to schedule an evaluation with us.
