Rebuilding Smiles With High-Quality Prosthetics

Whether you’re missing several or all of your teeth in an arch, gaps in your smile can have a drastic impact on your everyday life by making it more difficult to chew and speak. Your dentist in Houston, Dr. John Krell, offers several restorative solutions for our patients to help them regain a confident and fully functioning smile. To create the best fitting and working dentures, we perform comprehensive oral examinations, capture detailed impressions, and take images of your mouth to ensure that you’ll love your new dentures in Houston. If you’re missing teeth and would like to learn how we can help, be sure to contact our office so we can schedule your consultation.

Partial Dentures

For patients who are missing several teeth in an arch, Dr. Krell often recommends partial dentures. These are customized artificial teeth attached to a base that has a strategically designed metal or acrylic framework to it. This allows your replacement teeth to stay securely in your mouth, allowing you to chew food without having to worry about them moving or shifting. The frame is designed to discreetly fit behind your teeth and be removable, allowing you to easily clean and sanitize them.

Full Dentures

An entire arch of missing teeth can be a life-changing oral condition, which is why our team also crafts customized full dentures. These consist of natural-looking replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored acrylic base that’s custom-made to comfortably fit on your gums. They use natural suction and denture adhesive to stay firmly in place so you can easily speak and eat with them in. Not only do full dentures in Houston improve the function of your mouth, but you’ll also be able to enjoy a complete smile again. They’re easily removable for added convenience as well.
