What are the four types of dentures?

If you’ve experienced tooth loss, modern dentures offer a comfortable and natural-looking means to fully restore your smile and bite. At Lakewood Dental Trails, your trusted dentist in Temple, TX, Dr. David Vu and our expert team provide several denture options tailored to your specific needs and goals. Here’s a quick look at the four main types of dentures available:

  1. Complete (Full) — Full dentures replace all teeth in your upper or lower arch. They’re custom-made to fit your gums and restore your bite, appearance, and ability to eat comfortably.
  2. Partial — Partial dentures (or "partials") are ideal for individuals who’ve suffered tooth loss but still have healthy teeth remaining. They fill in gaps with lifelike prosthetic teeth that attach securely to your remaining teeth for stability.
  3. Immediate — Immediate dentures are placed right after tooth extraction, so the patient never goes without teeth. They’re a temporary solution until the gums heal and permanent dentures are ready.
  4. Implant-supported — Implant-supported advanced dentures attach to small titanium implants placed in your jawbone. They’re more secure, comfortable, and natural-feeling than traditional removable dentures.

At Lakewood Dental Trails, we offer full, partial, and implant-supported dentures in Temple, TX, crafted with precision and care to help you smile, speak, and eat with confidence again.
