Cosmetic Dentures
These are not your grandfather's dentures. Get rid of your bad fitting dentures with new, even more natural looking dentures. New materials allow us to customize dentures to your skin, hair and eye color to look as if they were the teeth you were born to have. Dentures can also be replaced or relined to adapt better to your aging jaws so you can chew without discomfort again.
With so many advances in modern dentistry, fewer people need to wear full dentures. If you have older dentures or think you may need dentures, just give Dr. Duguid a call. San Diego dentures technology has never been better than it is right now. They are being used in conjunction with dental implants to give you amazing chewing power.
As we get older, dentures can cause wearers to look older than they really are and can cause pain when chewing. Dr. Duguid can replace worn out dentures with custom made, state-of-the-art dentures. Let us add youth back to your smile.
Your ability to chew with force is limited only by the stability of the dentures themselves. Insufficient bone structure (shrunken bone ridges covered by gum tissue), old or worn dentures, and a dry mouth cause problems with the denture's stability. Call us at David R. Duguid D.D.S., P.C. to evaluate your personal situation.
At Dr. Duguid's, we feel a loose denture is a the first sign that it doesn't fit your mouth correctly. When you are initially getting used to your new dentures, you may feel them slipping when you laugh, smile, or cough, which is caused by air getting under the base and decreasing the suction. The more you wear dentures, the better you will be able to control their movements in situations like these.
If your budget allows, we almost always recommend the placement of dental implants to replace missing teeth. But, if you are not a candidate for implants, the a denture may be the only choice. If so, we'll do our best to make you one that is not only a good fit, but one in which you can be proud showing with a big smile.
