Full, Partial, and Immediate Dentures
in Arlington, VA
What Are Dentures?
At Cusumano and Stuver, our commitment is to restore your smile, your confidence, and your teeth’s functionality with high-quality denture solutions. Dentures are custom-made replacements for missing teeth and can be taken out and put back into your mouth. While dentures take some getting used to, and will never feel exactly the same as one’s natural teeth, today’s dentures are natural looking and more comfortable than ever. Whether you need full, partial, or immediate dentures, our team crafts each set with attention to detail, ensuring they match the natural appearance of your gums and teeth and fit comfortably.
Dentures At
Cusumano and Stuver
Full Dentures
Full dentures, or complete dentures, are designed to replace an entire set of teeth, either upper or lower, or both. They rest on top of the gums, as opposed to dental bridges that are anchored to existing teeth. They are typically made from a combination of acrylic resin and metal attachments for maximum strength and a lifelike appearance. Our practice utilizes advanced impression materials that capture the precise contours of your mouth for a snug fit and minimal slippage.
Immediate Dentures
Immediate dentures provide a unique advantage: you never have to be without your teeth. They are made in advance and can be positioned immediately after the removal of your natural teeth. This process requires careful planning: impressions of your mouth are taken during a preliminary visit. An added benefit is the protection they offer to your tissues during the healing process. However, as your gums and bone structure will naturally shrink during healing, adjustments will likely be necessary for optimal fit and comfort over time.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are employed when some of your natural teeth remain. These dentures are beneficial not only for aesthetic reasons but also for preventing your remaining teeth from shifting into the empty spaces, which could lead to misalignment and jaw problems. Our partial dentures are designed with a metal framework to provide robust support and stability, and clasps that anchor them to your natural teeth, blending seamlessly into your smile.
