Full & Partial Dentures in Fort Worth, TX

Understanding the Difference: Full vs. Partial Dentures

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices designed to replace missing teeth. At Bliss Modern Dentistry, we offer both full dentures (for patients who have lost all teeth in the upper or lower jaw) and partial dentures (for patients missing several but not all teeth).

• Full Dentures: These rest on the gums and are typically used after all natural teeth are removed. Modern full dentures are lightweight, natural-looking, and designed for daily wear.
• Partial Dentures: These fill the gaps left by missing teeth and are supported by nearby healthy teeth or dental implants. They help maintain alignment and prevent other teeth from shifting out of place.

Learn more about these options under our restorative dentistry services.

Benefits of Modern Dentures

Today’s dentures are more comfortable and functional than ever before. Patients who choose custom-fit dentures from our practice often enjoy:

• A natural appearance that restores facial volume
• Easier chewing and speaking
• Improved confidence in social situations
• Support for overall oral health by preventing tooth movement and bone loss
• Affordable alternatives to fixed restorations

Our dentures and partials are created with high-quality materials and tailored to match your gum color, facial structure, and natural bite.

The Denture Process at Bliss Modern Dentistry

Our approach to dentures begins with a detailed consultation and continues through to final placement and aftercare. The process includes:

1. Assessment and Planning – We evaluate your oral health, discuss goals, and determine if full or partial dentures are best.
2. Impressions and Imaging – Precise molds and scans are taken to ensure a perfect fit.
3. Fitting and Adjustments – Temporary or trial dentures may be used before final fabrication. Adjustments are made for comfort and bite alignment.
4. Final Denture Placement – Once your permanent dentures are ready, they are fitted and fine-tuned to ensure proper function.

If extractions or preparatory work are needed, we also offer in-house extractions and same-day emergency care when appropriate.

Implant-Supported Dentures for Enhanced Stability

For patients looking for a more secure, long-term solution, we also offer implant-supported dentures. These prosthetics are anchored using dental implants, offering improved retention, chewing power, and bone preservation compared to traditional removable options.

Visit our dental implants page to explore whether an implant-supported denture could be right for you.

FAQs About Full & Partial Dentures

How long do dentures last?
With proper care, most dentures last 5–10 years. Over time, they may need to be relined, rebased, or replaced due to natural changes in the jaw and gums.

Will dentures affect how I eat and speak?
There is an adjustment period, but most patients adapt quickly. We provide guidance on eating soft foods and speaking clearly during the early days of wearing new dentures.

Are dentures covered by insurance?
Many dental insurance plans cover some or all of the cost of dentures. Our team will help verify your benefits and explain all financial options.

What if my dentures feel loose or uncomfortable?
Fit issues can be addressed with adjustments or relines. We recommend follow-up visits to ensure your dentures continue to function comfortably.

Can I combine dentures with cosmetic treatments?
Absolutely. We often pair denture solutions with services like teeth whitening or Invisalign for a complete smile transformation.
