So dentures are our treatment modality, which are not really…it’s not really taught at dental school anymore. And the reason it’s not taught is they just don’t have enough time to teach dental students everything. So, fabricating dentures is a lost art form, right? It really requires a lot of understanding of tooth position, how the face should look, how the support of the lip should be.
There are so many things that go into fabricating a really nice denture for a patient. As specialists, as prosthodontists, this is part of what we do on a day-to-day basis, right? We’ve got seven, eight different techniques to fabricate a denture. Not every single patient has a denture fabricated by the same technique. The other advantage we have is that we have laboratory technicians that come and meet the patient, and we customize the tooth. It could be that the patients want their teeth crowded, they want their teeth to look like they used to look. We don’t want to provide a denture which is monotone, straight teeth, and it doesn’t look real.
When you look at a patient with a denture, it should look real. Nobody should be able to tell. Now, dentures have essentially stayed the same over the last, you know, hundreds of years, 100 years, should I say, and nothing has really changed in terms of technique and the way we do things until recently. More recently, we’ve adapted digital technologies to fabricate dentures. Now, what is the advantage of a digital denture for a patient? The first thing is fit. The fit of a digital denture is amazing. It really fits very, very well. And we have technologies through scanners, 3D printers, milling machines to be able to do that for patients.
The second advantage of fabricating a digital denture, this happens to a lot of patients. What happens if they lose their denture? They don’t have to panic. We don’t have to go through, you know, all those impressions and four, five visits so that they can get another denture. We just press a button and we mill another denture, and the patient gets that denture within 24 hours. How, you know, great is that from a patient perspective? So we do dentures very, very differently here at Anacapa Dental to individualize the experience with the patient and to customize the appearance, the fit, and to make sure that it looks great in the patient’s face.

Common Questions About Dentures

Who might need dentures?

Dentures can replace either a few missing teeth or all your teeth, depending on your situation. We offer dentures in several styles to accommodate just about every patient. You can get partial or full conventional dentures that remove easily for cleaning, or you can stabilize your dentures with a set of dental implants for superior comfort and performance.

How long does it take to make dentures?

Most dentures that our patients get will take one to two weeks to make. We’ll typically custom-craft your new dentures in our on-site lab for an exact fit. While your dentures are being made, we can supply you with a set of temporary dentures to wear. That way, you’ll never be without your teeth.

How much do dentures cost?

Once we’ve examined your mouth, discussed your options, and worked up a treatment plan, we can let you know how much your dentures will cost. Simpler dentures made from less expensive materials will naturally cost less, but they may not last as long. Dentures made from premium materials require a bigger investment up front but tend to hold up better in the long run.

Which is better: dentures or implants?

Conventional dentures cost less than dental implant dentures. However, some of the benefits of implants may make it worth the added cost. For instance, dental implants will keep you from suffering the bone loss that causes your jaw to shrink, giving you an older appearance and making it more difficult to keep your dentures in place. They can also last a lifetime.
