Many patients worry that dentures will look fake or slip when they eat or talk. The cost of getting properly fitted dentures can also feel overwhelming when you're already dealing with tooth loss.

Dr. Maddipati takes impressions and measurements to ensure your dentures fit securely and look natural with your face shape. She explains all costs upfront and discusses whether immediate dentures or conventional dentures work better for your timeline and budget.

Dentures are custom-made removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissues, designed to closely resemble your natural teeth.

Types of Dentures

Complete Dentures replace all teeth — either conventional (made after gums heal) or immediate (placed same day as extractions).

Partial Dentures fill gaps when some natural teeth remain, resting on a metal framework attached to your existing teeth.

Implant-Supported Dentures are anchored by dental implants for a far more stable and comfortable fit.

Getting Used to Dentures

New dentures may feel awkward for a few weeks. Our team will guide you through the adjustment and make any necessary fit modifications.
