Losing one or more teeth is never trivial. Beyond the physical changes, it can disrupt daily life: eating becomes less easy, talking feels more shameful, and we sometimes smile a little less than before, even when we feel like it.
Fortunately, there are accessible, humane, and well-thought-out solutions to regain a functional mouth, a natural smile, and the confidence we thought we’d lost. Dentures, whether partial or complete, removable or implant-supported, can fill the spaces left by missing teeth, while respecting your reality, your pace, and your expectations.
The following will help you better understand the options, take stock, and, if you wish, begin the next step with greater clarity.
Tooth loss has consequences that often go beyond what we imagine: neighboring teeth can shift, chewing becomes more difficult, and even facial balance can be affected. But beyond the functional aspect, there’s also what we feel internally. When we avoid smiling or feel less socially comfortable, our entire daily life often takes a hit.
Choosing a denture is a concrete step toward restoring this balance. For some, it’s a practical necessity. For others, it’s a step toward overall well-being. Whatever the motivation, this solution can have a real impact, both on quality of life and self-perception.
And above all: there’s more than one option. Every situation is unique, and that’s why we always take the time to offer you a solution that adapts to you, and not the other way around.
Depending on your situation, several types of dentures can be considered. Here’s a simple overview to help you understand:
- Removable partial denture: This allows you to replace one or more teeth by supporting the remaining teeth with clasps. It can be removed as needed and is a flexible solution.
- Complete denture (denture): Designed for people who have lost all the teeth in an arch, it rests directly on the gum and allows them to regain satisfactory chewing function.
- Fixed implant-supported denture: For greater stability, a complete or partial denture can be secured with dental implants. This solution offers optimal comfort and a natural feel.
During your consultation, we will take the time to discuss your needs, lifestyle, and oral health to guide you toward the most suitable solution.
It all begins with a meeting with our team, where we assess your oral health and expectations. This step is essential to guide you through the next steps.
Next, we take precise impressions of your mouth, which will allow us to design a prosthesis perfectly adapted to your morphology. When the prosthesis is ready, we proceed with a fitting: we adjust, refine, and check that everything is comfortable and functional.
Then, you’ll leave with clear and concrete advice to help you adapt properly. An adjustment period is completely normal, which is why we always schedule follow-ups to answer your questions, adjust if necessary, and ensure that everything is moving in the right direction.
It’s a process that takes place step by step, respecting your pace, with a team present every step of the way.
