Full & Partial Dentures Arlington, VA

Dentures are a common treatment for patients who suffer from missing teeth. We offer both partial and full dentures, depending on the extent of restoration. Partial dentures fit over existing teeth while full dentures replace an entire dental arch. Over a series of appointments, Dr. Mary Gregory can create your specialty dentures in Arlington, Virginia. These will be made following an initial consultation during which our dentist will take measurements. If you would like to plan your first denture consultation, call 703-527-6495.

Benefits of Full and Partial Dentures

Dentures not only restore the appearance of your smile but also improve your oral functionality and overall quality of life. With well-fitted dentures, you can expect the following advantages:

  • Enhanced Chewing and Speaking: Dentures improve your ability to eat and communicate effectively.
  • Improved Appearance: Full or partial dentures help restore the natural contours of your face and smile.
  • Preservation of Oral Health: Partial dentures prevent remaining teeth from shifting, which can lead to bite issues.
  • Custom Comfort: Dentures are tailored to fit comfortably and securely.

What to Expect During the Denture Process

Creating your custom dentures is a detailed process that ensures a precise fit and optimal functionality:

  1. Initial Consultation: Our dentist will evaluate your oral health, discuss your needs and create a personalized treatment plan.
  2. Impressions and Measurements: Accurate molds of your mouth will be taken to ensure your dentures fit comfortably.
  3. Denture Fabrication: Over several appointments, your dentures will be crafted and adjusted for comfort and function.
  4. Final Fitting: Adjustments are made to ensure proper fit and feel.
