Missing or damaged teeth take a toll on your confidence and oral function—but we can help. Whether you need dentures or a bridge to restore your smile (or even just a single tooth), our dentist at Somerset Dental Las Vegas will focus on aesthetics, fit, and comfort to provide replacements that look like your natural teeth.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are replacements for missing teeth that can be taken out and put back into your mouth. While dentures take some getting used to, and will never feel the same as your natural teeth, modern dentures are natural-looking and more comfortable than ever.
There are two main types of dentures: full and partial. Dr. Palluck at Somerset Dental can help you choose the type of denture that's best for you based on whether some or all of your teeth are going to be replaced and the cost involved.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth.
A bridge is made up of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap -- these two or more anchoring teeth are called abutment teeth -- and a false tooth/teeth in between. These false teeth are called pontics and can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these materials. Natural teeth or implants support dental bridges, and there are three types; Traditional, Cantilever, and Maryland bonded. Dr. Palluck, a trusted dentist in Las Vegas, can explain and help choose the best type of bridge for you.
How To Choose Dentures & Bridges?
The first step is to visit our dentists; they will examine your dental issue, listen to and understand your concerns, and recommend the appropriate option. Our expert team will discuss if you have strong teeth and bone to support the bridge or if dentures are the right option for you. Don’t worry — we know dental work can be daunting, so we make every effort to provide an easy and efficient experience for you. Call to schedule an assessment so you can get back to smiling without reservation.
