Dentures
When most of your natural teeth are missing, finding a comfortable, natural-looking replacement is essential. Brixton Family Dental offers full and partial dentures to restore your smile.
Partial and Full Dentures in Oklahoma City, OK
Dentures are removable prosthetic teeth attached to a gum-colored base. They are designed to restore oral function and appearance. Whether supported by implants or fitted traditionally, dentures are an excellent option for patients with extensive tooth loss due to injury or declining oral health. Full dentures replace an entire arch, while partial dentures fill gaps when some natural teeth remain.
Well-fitted dentures restore the ability to chew and speak naturally. They can enhance both your comfort and confidence. The denture process includes four key appointments:
- First Appointment: Initial records, including digital scans, impressions, and photographs, to start crafting custom dentures.
- Second Appointment: Final impressions and precise bite alignment.
- Third Appointment: Wax teeth try-in for fit and approval before final fabrication.
- Fourth Appointment: Delivery and final adjustments for comfort and functionality.
Schedule a consultation to explore whether full or partial dentures are the best option for you.

How do I know if I need full or partial dentures?
Full dentures are ideal when all teeth are missing, while partial dentures work best for filling gaps when some natural teeth remain. A dental evaluation determines the right choice based on your oral health.
-
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
While it is possible, removing dentures at night allows your gums to rest and prevents irritation or infections. Storing them in water or a denture solution keeps them clean and maintains their shape.
-
What should I do if my dentures become loose?
Loose dentures can cause discomfort and difficulty eating. If your dentures no longer fit properly, visit your dentist for adjustments or potential relining to restore a secure fit.
