Rediscover Your Smile with Dentures in Worthington, OH

Understanding
Dentures

Missing teeth can impact your confidence and your life. At Anthony Lordo, DDS, we proudly offer a variety of denture solutions. Dentures are removable prosthetics designed to replace missing teeth and restore both function and aesthetics. Typically made from acrylic resin and reinforced with metal or flexible materials, dentures help you chew properly, speak clearly, and maintain the structure of your face by supporting your lips and cheeks. Our expert team crafts custom full, partial, and immediate dentures with precision and care so that they fit perfectly and look natural.

What are the
Types of Dentures?

Dentures are a reliable and effective way to get your smile back on track, whether you need to replace a few teeth or an entire arch. We offer custom full, partial, and immediate dentures, crafted with precision and care, ensuring they fit perfectly and look natural.

  • Full Dentures: Perfect for replacing all teeth in an arch, full dentures consist of a complete set of artificial teeth attached to a gum-colored acrylic base. These dentures fit snugly over your gums, providing a secure and comfortable fit.
  • Partial Dentures: Ideal for when you still have some natural teeth left, these dentures feature replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored base secured by metal or flexible clasps that anchor to your remaining teeth. They fill the gaps left by missing teeth and prevent your natural teeth from shifting out of position.
  • Immediate Dentures: These dentures are placed on the same day your remaining teeth are extracted. Immediate dentures let you avoid the embarrassment of living without teeth while your gums heal. They will need adjustments as your gums shrink and heal over time.

The Dentures Process

At Anthony Lordo, DDS, we strive to make the dentures process as smooth and comfortable as possible. Here’s what you can expect during the dentures process:

1

Initial Consultation

Dr. Lordo evaluates your oral health and discusses your needs and goals. This may involve digital x-rays and impressions of your mouth to create a detailed model.

2

Tooth Extraction (if necessary)

If you need extractions before receiving dentures, Dr. Lordo performs these procedures with care to minimize discomfort and promote quick healing.

3

Impressions and Measurements

We take accurate impressions and measurements of your mouth so your dentures fit perfectly. These impressions are taken to our in-house dental lab where your custom dentures are crafted.

4

Fitting and Adjustments

Once your dentures are ready, you’ll have a fitting appointment. Dr. Lordo makes necessary adjustments to guarantee a comfortable and secure fit, allowing you to speak and chew naturally.

5

Follow-Up Visits

Regular follow-up visits monitor the fit and comfort of your dentures and make any additional adjustments needed as your mouth adapts. Immediate dentures will have more follow up than traditional dentures and reline.
