Full & Partial Dentures in Fredericksburg, VA
Are missing teeth causing you to miss out on the things you used to love, like enjoying your favorite foods and smiling with confidence? At North River Dental Care, we offer modern full and partial dentures to replace your missing teeth and give you back a complete, confident smile.
What are my options for dentures?
Our office provides partial dentures, which are custom made to fill in gaps in a patient's smile. These oral appliances easily clip onto nearby teeth using small metal clasps. We also offer full dentures, which replace an entire arch of teeth, either all the top teeth, bottom teeth, or both. Not sure what your smile needs? Our team can offer personalized advice during your consultation.
Are dentures permanent?
Dentures are removable prostheses, even implant-supported dentures. You should remove your dentures every night and brush them thoroughly with a soft-bristle toothbrush and denture cleaner. It is also crucial that dentures be soaked in a denture solution overnight. This helps kill more bacteria and keeps the denture moist, which allows it to retain its custom shape.
Are dentures uncomfortable?
It will take some time to get used to eating with dentures, but thanks to advancements in dentistry, dentures are now more realistic-looking and comfortable than ever before. We take the time to carefully design your denture to fit snugly on your gum line, and we also offer denture relining services and refittings if you need adjustments to your dentures.
Are dentures covered by insurance?
Every insurance plan is different when it comes to what is fully covered, partially covered, and not covered. If you call our office, our financial coordinator can look into your denture coverage for you to see if your dentures are covered by insurance. If they aren't, don't fret. Our team can walk you through our flexible financing options to find a budget-friendly solution for you!
