Dentures
A complete denture is an appliance that is inserted in the mouth; it replaces natural teeth and provides support for the cheeks and lips.
Your days of dealing with loose or ill-fitting dentures are nearly over. Soon you won’t have to experience discomfort when eating certain foods. Best of all, you will no longer feel uncomfortable socializing with friends and family, wondering if, or when, your denture’s looseness will be noticed by others.
