Regain your ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently with custom-designed removable dental prosthetics.
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissue. These custom-made prosthetics rest on the gum tissue and jawbone to restore both function and aesthetics, helping you speak, eat, and smile with confidence again. Modern dentures are crafted using advanced materials and techniques that make them more comfortable, natural-looking, and durable than ever before.
At Ponce Dental Studio, we offer several types of dentures to address different needs, from replacing a few missing teeth to restoring a complete arch. Our denture solutions blend the art and science of dentistry to create prosthetics that not only look natural but also support your facial structure, prevent shifting of remaining teeth, and help maintain jawbone health. With proper care and maintenance, today’s dentures can provide years of reliable function while enhancing your appearance and self-esteem.
Complete dentures replace all teeth in either the upper arch, lower arch, or both. These prosthetics rest directly on the gum tissue and are held in place by suction and the muscles of your cheeks and tongue. Our complete dentures are custom-designed to complement your facial features, creating a natural appearance while restoring proper function.
Upper dentures cover the roof of your mouth (palate) and typically offer more stability due to greater surface area, while lower dentures are horseshoe-shaped to accommodate tongue movement. For patients concerned about stability, particularly with lower dentures, we offer implant-supported options that provide exceptional security and prevent bone loss typically associated with traditional dentures.
For patients missing several teeth but not an entire arch, partial dentures offer an effective solution. These removable appliances consist of replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored base connected by a metal framework. Small clasps attach to your natural teeth, providing stability and preventing the denture from shifting during eating and speaking.
Partial dentures not only restore your smile’s appearance but also prevent remaining natural teeth from shifting position, which can lead to further dental problems. At Ponce Dental Studio, we design our partial dentures to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth in color, shape, and size, creating a cohesive, natural-looking smile that others won’t recognize as a prosthetic.
For patients seeking the ultimate in denture stability and functionality, implant-supported dentures combine the benefits of dental implants with the comprehensive restoration of dentures. These innovative prosthetics attach to dental implants strategically placed in your jawbone, creating a secure foundation that prevents slipping, clicking, or discomfort.
Implant-supported dentures offer several advantages over traditional options: they help preserve jawbone, provide superior chewing efficiency, eliminate the need for adhesives, and typically offer a more comfortable fit. Depending on your specific needs and bone structure, we can secure your denture with as few as two implants, though four or more provides optimal support and function, particularly for lower dentures.

Dentures restore your ability to chew a wide variety of foods, improving your nutrition and digestive health. Modern denture materials and design techniques create prosthetics that distribute biting forces evenly, allowing you to enjoy many of your favorite foods again. Implant-supported options provide even greater stability, approaching the chewing efficiency of natural teeth.
Beyond functional benefits, dentures support your facial muscles, preventing the sunken appearance that often occurs with missing teeth. This restoration of facial structure can make you look years younger and significantly boost your self-esteem. Our custom-designed dentures provide a natural-looking smile that enhances your overall appearance and restores your confidence in social and professional settings.
Missing teeth can significantly affect your ability to speak clearly. Custom-made dentures properly support your lips and tongue, improving pronunciation and helping you communicate with confidence. Modern materials and precise fitting techniques create dentures that feel comfortable and secure, reducing the irritation and soreness often associated with older denture designs.
While dental implants offer certain advantages, complete tooth replacement with implants may not be financially feasible for everyone. Dentures provide a cost-effective alternative that restores both function and aesthetics. For those seeking additional stability without the expense of full implant treatment, implant-supported dentures offer an excellent middle-ground solution that combines the benefits of both options.

The adjustment period for new dentures typically lasts several weeks. Initially, they may feel bulky or odd, but with practice and regular use, they’ll begin to feel more natural. Patience is key during this transition phase as your mouth adapts to the new appliance.
Yes, dentures can be fitted for receding gums. However, it’s crucial to consult with a dental professional to ensure proper fit and prevent further gum damage. As gums recede, dentures may need relining or replacement to maintain a comfortable and secure fit.
On average, a set of dentures lasts between 5 to 10 years. However, this can vary depending on factors such as wear and tear, changes in your oral structure, and how well you maintain your dentures. Regular dental check-ups can help determine when replacement is necessary.
Proper denture care is essential for longevity and oral health. Clean your dentures daily using a soft brush and denture cleaner or mild soap. Avoid abrasive toothpastes. When not worn, keep dentures moist to prevent warping. Regular dental check-ups are also crucial for maintaining fit and detecting any issues early.
