Dentures FAQ – With Dr. Cajee
1. What are dentures, and why would someone need them?
Dentures are fake teeth that help replace real teeth that are missing. People may need them if they’ve lost some or all of their teeth from injury, decay, or age. Dentures help you chew, speak, and smile with confidence again!
2. What’s the difference between full and partial dentures?
Full dentures are used when all your top or bottom teeth are missing. Partial dentures are used when you’re only missing a few teeth and still have some natural ones left. Both types help fill in gaps and make chewing easier.
3. What are implant-supported dentures?
Implant-supported dentures are dentures that snap onto small titanium posts (implants) placed in your jawbone. They are extra secure and won’t slip around when you eat or talk. Many people say they feel more like real teeth!
4. Do dentures look like real teeth?
Yes! Today’s dentures are made to look very natural. Dr. Cajee helps choose the shape and color that fits your mouth best so your smile looks real and feels comfortable.
5. How do I know which type of denture is right for me?
Dr. Cajee will check your mouth and talk to you about your health, your smile goals, and your budget. Then he’ll help you choose between full, partial, or implant-supported dentures. You’re not alone—he’ll guide you every step of the way!
