Overview
Dentures are a good option if you need a replacement for missing teeth. Removable dentures can renew the appearance of your smile and make it easier to speak and eat with full confidence. Our experienced team of certified dentists can provide either full or partial removable dentures for patients in Wichita Falls, TX. Full dentures can replace all the teeth in your upper arch, lower arch, or both, while partial dentures leave some of your natural teeth to act as support. At Stone Lake Dental, we will help you decide whether full or partial dentures are best for your needs and then have them custom made to look natural.

Best Candidates for Dentures
You may be an ideal candidate for dentures if you have suffered the loss of many teeth but still have healthy gums and a strong jawbone. If you have natural teeth, these may either be extracted for a full denture or kept with a partial denture. During your consultation, we will examine your mouth and discuss your options based on your needs and budget.
What To Expect
If needed, any needed teeth will be extracted before oral impressions are taken, which will be used to make your custom dentures. Partial dentures will be shaded to match your natural teeth for a seamless appearance. Once your dentures are crafted, the fit will be adjusted so they are comfortable and secure. A member of our team will also go over the best way to care for your new dentures.
Follow-Up
It may take some time before your new dentures feel comfortable and natural, but it should eventually be easier to eat and speak normally. If your dentures feel loose, return to Stone Lake Dental to have your dentures readjusted. At home, you will need to keep your dentures clean by brushing them twice a day. When you remove your dentures, they should be soaked so they don't dry out. Continue to schedule exams and cleanings at Stone Lake Dental so we can check the wear and fit of your dentures and the health of your jaw and gums. We will also let you know if you need to have your dentures repaired or replaced, but with proper care, your dentures should last for many years.
Insurance Coverage
If you have dental insurance, part of the cost of your dentures will typically be covered. Our office will contact your insurance company to determine your exact coverage and out-of-pocket expenses. During your consultation, your treatment plan will be customized so your dentures fit both your needs and budget. To help make your dentures affordable, whether you have dental insurance or not, Stone Lake Dental accepts many forms of payment, including medical financing.
