When a tooth is missing, it would be nice to think that money would not be a factor in your decision. Your smile is likely your greatest asset and deserves only the best. Unfortunately, for most Chicago-area patients, it’s important to find a comfortable, healthy, and affordable solution that gives them the smile they want and within the budget that they have available.
Dr. Dean Dietrich of Pleasant Dental® is pleased to inform his patients that they don’t need to choose between quality and affordability. With the latest dental technologies, today’s dentures offer comfort, convenience, and great appearance – all at a cost effective price point. Dr. Dietrich has helped countless patients improve both the health of their mouth and the appearance of their smiles with dentures.
When choosing dentures, many patients are curious about the process. Common questions include, “How long does the process take?” “Will people know that I’m wearing dentures?” and “Will I be in pain?”
Receiving your dentures will likely take several visits to the dentist’s office. First, the patient must have impressions taken which are sent to a dental lab and used to create a set of custom-made dentures. Once those dentures are ready, patients return to have the dentures fit. Patients can choose between securing the dentures with a dental adhesive and snapping them into place using dental implants.
The process is not painful, but patients may have a bit of discomfort at first as they get used to their new teeth. It’s important to note that you should not feel any pain. If you do, return to the dentist to have the dentures refit.
Finally, Dr. Dietrich assures patients that unless they share the information, no one will ever need to know that a patient has dentures. Today’s dentures are custom-made and natural looking. They fit better and give patients confidence to smile happily, knowing that the dentures are not going to slip or slide out of place.
