At Sonoma Smiles in Rohnert Park, California, Dr. Wayne Sutton meets patients from all walks of life. Some have been troubled with headaches for years, while others can’t recall the last time they had a good night’s sleep. Often, we encounter patients who have lost most or all their teeth. A common question these patients pose is, “will I ever have a complete smile again?” Thanks to our advanced reconstructive dentistry, our dental office has helped many patients battling dental issues reclaim their lives. We offer full-mouth dental implants, dentures, and other tooth replacement options to ensure patients with missing teeth can smile with confidence again. Whether you miss one tooth, some, or all your teeth, there is always a solution for everyone in our dental office.
If you are missing one or more teeth, you should have them replaced immediately before your oral health spirals out of control. The obvious negative effect of missing teeth is damage to your appearance. Edentulous patients avoid talking or smiling around others because of mouth gaps. Others may avoid social situations altogether due to embarrassment and shame. Replacing your missing teeth can give you renewed confidence to live a happier, healthier life. The other reasons you should replace your missing are to:
Many people have lost all their teeth because of accidents, decay, and gum disease. In some instances, your natural teeth may be failing, and you can’t wait to have them replaced. Whatever the case, we can replace all the teeth in your mouth with superior options. Our tooth replacement options not only fill mouth gaps but also do the job with comfort, aesthetics, and stability in mind.
Dr. Wayne Sutton and the team offer the below tooth replacement options for patients looking to replace their complete set of teeth.
If you have lost one or several teeth, a partial denture can fill the gap for a more functional smile. However, if you have lost all your teeth on either arch of your mouth, we offer full dentures to overcome your “gappy smile.” Our high-quality dentures are created from superior materials to ensure they look natural, are durable, and well-fitting.
Patients fitted with our dentures speak better, talk confidently, and eat comfortably as though they never lost teeth. However, dentures tend to lose their stability as your jaw bone deteriorates. This flaw results in slippage when talking, eating, or laughing — something many patients find difficult to put up with.
Full-mouth dental implants are your best bet if you want a more stable and durable alternative to traditional dentures. Instead of replacing every lost tooth with a single implant, our dental team installs four or six dental implants in specific locations in your mouth. We then fit a natural-looking denture over the implants to replace your lost teeth.
Full-mouth dental implants are preferred over dentures because they are more stable, natural-looking, and durable.
Our experienced dental team uses the latest reconstructive dentistry procedures to transform your oral health.
From dental implants, crowns, and bridges to dentures, our dental team can improve the function and appearance of your smile for years to come. Please call (707) 868-0666 to schedule an appointment with our dental team today
