Missing teeth can impact your ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently, but dentures offer a practical and effective solution.

At Dorfner Dental Studio, we specialize in creating high-quality, custom dentures in Burlington, NJ, that restore your smile’s functionality and beauty.

What Are Dentures?

Dentures are custom-made dental appliances that can restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence. Dentures are designed to replace missing teeth and are typically made of a durable material such as acrylic, metal, or a combination of both.

Acrylic is often used to create the base of your gums, while metal is used to provide support in partial dentures. The teeth are usually made of high-quality resin or porcelain and are designed to mimic the appearance of your natural teeth.

Conventional dentures have evolved significantly in recent years. Today’s dentures are more comfortable, provide a natural fit, and look incredibly realistic. They are lighter in weight and more durable than traditional dentures and can be made to mimic the look and feel of your natural teeth.

With the use of digital scanning and 3D printing, our dentist in Burlington can create dentures that fit precisely, eliminating the need for multiple try-ins and adjustments. 

Additionally, modern dentures can be customized to fit the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth, providing a natural-looking smile that you’ll feel confident showing off.

Dentures Available at Dorfner Dental Studio

Full Dentures

If you are missing all of the teeth in either the upper or lower arch or both, full dentures (also called complete dentures) can be a wonderful solution. These custom dentures sit on top of the gum line and are designed to restore both form and function to your smile.

Full dentures provide important support to facial muscles, helping to keep your face from sagging and allowing you to eat and speak with confidence. At Dorfner Dental Studio, we take great care in crafting each set of full dentures to ensure a natural look and feel.

Partial Dentures

If you still have some healthy natural teeth, partial dentures can be a fantastic option. These custom dentures fill in the gaps created by missing teeth and are held in place by a metal or acrylic framework that attaches to your existing teeth.
Partial dentures keep natural teeth from shifting and help maintain the alignment of your mouth. They also allow you to chew and eat with confidence and restore a more attractive smile. At Dorfner Dental Studio, we precision-craft each partial denture to fit comfortably with your natural teeth.

Implant-Supported Dentures

If you want the most comfortable and secure dentures possible, consider implant-supported dentures. These advanced dentures are attached to dental implants, which are tiny titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone. 

Implant-supported dentures are incredibly stable and feel more natural than traditional dentures. They are especially beneficial for those who have experienced bone loss, as the implants help to stimulate the jawbone and preserve its structure. At Dorfner Dental Studio, we use the most advanced techniques to ensure a precise fit and long-lasting comfort for your implant-supported dentures.

The Amazing Benefits of Dentures with Dr. Dorfner

When you choose dentures from Dr. Dorfner at Dorfner Dental Studio, you’ll enjoy a wide range of benefits that can dramatically impact your health and quality of life.

Enjoy Chewing and Speak with Clarity

Dentures allow you to chew and eat a comfortable diet again. You'll be able to enjoy a variety of foods and regain your nutrition. Dentures also help you speak more clearly, as missing teeth can cause mumbling and affect your ability to form words properly.

Supports Facial Structure

Dentures and partial dentures provide support to your cheeks and lips, which can sag when you lose multiple teeth. This helps to give your face a more youthful appearance.

Increased Confidence

A full mouth of beautiful teeth can transform your entire outlook on life. You'll feel more confident and comfortable in your ability to smile, laugh, and show off your teeth. Dentures allow you to eat, smile, and live life to the fullest.

Affordable & Long-Lasting

Dentures are a cost-effective way to replace missing teeth. With proper care, they can last for many years. They are a great option to restore your smile and your ability to eat and smile confidently.

Stable & Comfortable

Dr. Dorfner takes great care to make sure your denture is stable and doesn't slip or feel loose.

Caring for Your Dentures: Tips from an Expert Dentist

Proper denture care is critical to maintaining the appearance, function, and longevity of your dentures. After you eat, Dr. Dorfner recommends rinsing your dentures with warm water to remove any food particles and loosen any debris.

This simple step can prevent unsightly stains and keep your dentures feeling fresh. You should also brush your dentures daily with a soft-bristled denture brush and a non-abrasive denture cleaner. She also recommends not using toothpaste on your dentures because regular toothpaste can be too harsh for dentures.

 

At night, soak your dentures in water or a denture-soaking solution to keep them from drying out and to maintain their shape. While your dentures soak, gently brush your gums, tongue, and the roof of your mouth with a soft toothbrush to promote circulation and remove any debris.

 

Be careful when handling your dentures to avoid dropping them. It’s a good idea to clean them with a towel or in a sink filled with water in case you accidentally drop them. Dentures can chip or break if they fall and are not padded by something.

 

Finally, be sure to see Dr. Dorfner for regular adjustments and to have your dentures cleaned. By taking good care of your dentures and having them relined when necessary, you can enjoy your meals and smile with confidence. By following these simple steps, you’ll keep your dentures comfortable, your mouth healthy, and your smile looking its best.
