Dentures
in Katy, TX

A denture is a restorative dentistry procedure that is a removable dental device used to replace missing teeth. If you are missing all or a large number of your teeth, it will affect both the function and look of your mouth. Eating will become extremely difficult. You will have to choose what you eat based on your ability to chew and break down the food. Additionally, harder foods will irritate or even damage your gums.

However, other functions of the mouth are affected by missing teeth. Your jaw can sink or become misaligned, causing discomfort or pain. Many of these conditions are also noticeable, regardless of whether your mouth is open or shut. Then, there is the appearance of your smile to consider. One or two teeth missing, depending on where they are, may not affect how others see your smile. An entire set of missing teeth, however, will not go unnoticed.

With dentures, you will regain the ability to eat the foods that you love. Dentures will also restore the structure of your mouth, which will result in better support for your jaws. Aesthetically, dentures will allow you to smile with renewed confidence. With the advancements in fixing gels, there is minimal risk of dentures coming loose when you speak or eat.
