Dentures

At Decatur Dental Care in Decatur, Illinois, we provide personalized denture services to meet the unique needs of those missing some or all of their natural teeth. Whether you require full or partial dentures, our team is skilled in designing replacements that restore the function and appearance of your smile. We offer two types of full dentures: Conventional Full Dentures, which are placed after the gum tissues have healed following tooth removal, and Immediate Full Dentures, which are fitted before your teeth are removed and placed immediately afterward, ensuring you never have to be without teeth. For those who still retain some of their natural teeth, partial dentures are a viable solution, acting similarly to a bridge but removable for convenience. Adapting to dentures can take time, as they might feel bulky or loose initially, impacting speech and eating habits temporarily. However, with time, your mouth will adjust, making the dentures feel more natural. We emphasize the importance of proper denture care, advising patients to treat them as they would their natural teeth—regular cleaning, careful handling, and avoiding adjustments on their own to prevent damage. For any fit adjustments or concerns, our dedicated team is always ready to help, ensuring your dentures provide both comfort and functionality.
