Dentures, Affordable Full and Partial Dentures

Restore Your Smile and Confidence with Comfortable, Affordable Dentures

The physical damage of tooth loss affects your ability to eat, speak and smile comfortably. The emotional impact of tooth decay and tooth loss can be traumatic. Dental dentures are a safe and effective solution for more severe cases of tooth loss that don’t lend themselves to individual tooth implants. Dentures artificially replace your damaged gum tissue, as well as your missing teeth.

The top-rated Bronx, NY dentist at Hutchinson Metro Dental, Dr. Victoria Kushensky uses new, durable materials that are far more comfortable than the poorly-made style of dentures from years past. Today, natural-looking custom teeth are crafted on an individual basis. This ensures a smoother fit and has surprisingly driven most dentures costs down. Affordable dentures and implants are making the benefits of modern dentistry available to everybody.

What Suits Your Needs?

While preserving your natural teeth is the primary goal of your Bronx, NY dentist, it isn’t always possible. But Dr. Victoria Kushensky and her team of talented dental professionals always take your individual needs, budget and health into consideration before making any recommendations. And when you rely on a family dentist who’s also an experienced cosmetic dentist with restorative dentistry expertise, both your health and your appearance play dominant roles in any decision-making process.

Dr. Kushensky, serving all of Bronx, offers three main types of dentures — partial, same-day and conventional dentures, described as:

• Conventional dentures, ideal for when your remaining teeth are pulled first and your gums are allowed to heal before your dentures are fit at a separate appointment. This typically takes between eight and 12 weeks.
• Same-day dentures, also called one-day dentures, are made before your teeth are pulled. You get them right away, on the same visit.
• Partial dentures, the best option if you still have some healthy, natural teeth. Partial dentures can be secured by a dental bridge that anchors securely to your natural teeth on both sides. Your partial can either be removable or cemented firmly into position.

Affordable Dental Implants

Affordable denture implants and full mouth dental implants represent the next stage of evolution in dental appliances. They’re often called precision dentures or implanted overdentures. Like partial dentures, you get to decide whether you want removable denture implants that snap into place or permanent implants that are firmly fixed in place. The comfort and aesthetics of Clear Choice dental implants have revolutionized the entire industry. They ensure a natural appearance, while eliminating slips and gum irritation.

Implants typically drive up the cost of dentures, but the durability and security may be worth the investment for you. If you get implants, however, you can’t get same-day denture services. The advantage is that implants look, feel and function almost identically to your natural teeth. Ask your cosmetic dentist in Bronx, NY to explain your options for All-on-4 dental implants or All-on-6 dental implants.

Wear, Tear and Denture Repair

Your lifestyle factors should also be considered when deciding which type of denture works best for you. Accident-prone or absent-minded people generally find that secured dentures that are fixed in position are completely hassle-free.

Damage can still happen, even with fixed dentures. Fortunately, dental lab technology has advanced to the point that repairs can be completed in a much more timely fashion. Damage like a break or chip tends to happen as the result of a fall or dropping the dentures on a hard surface. Other damage may be caused by wear and erosion and can result in a highly uncomfortable fit.

Failure to properly maintain and repair any damage to your dentures can cost you more money in the long run. The longer you wait, the worse the damage can become. And the price of necessary denture repair can add up over time.

Affordable Dentures

Consult your Bronx, NY family cosmetic implant dentist in Bronx, NY. It’s the first step toward reclaiming your smile. At least a portion of the cost of your dentures is covered by most insurance companies. Some policies cover the entire cost.

It’s recommended that you have the fit of your dentures checked every few years to ensure maximum function and comfort. Improving your oral health and restoring the confidence in your smile are Dr. Victoria Kushensky’s goals. See what options are best for you. Contact Hutchinson Metro Dental for an appointment.
