Dentures are a set of prosthetic teeth used as an oral appliance to replace multiple missing teeth. They help restore the functionality of the mouth and the visual appearance of your smile. Depending on the need, you may require one of two types of dentures:

  • Partial dentures — Used when you have multiple missing teeth but still retain some of your original teeth, partial dentures fill in the spaces between existing natural teeth to form a comfortable and complete smile.
  • Complete dentures — This type of denture is used when a patient is missing all of their natural teeth. It covers the full dental arch of the bottom or top of the mouth and is held in place by a dental adhesive.

In each of these cases, the denture is custom made by our dentist for a fully comfortable fit. We will take a mold of your mouth to create the denture and send it to a dental lab to have the appliance made. Once it is completed, our dentist will adjust the fit and appearance of the denture until it accurately matches the contours of the mouth for the best possible results.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures in Woodinville

What types of dentures are available at Oasis Family Dentistry?

Oasis Family Dentistry offers complete dentures (for patients missing all teeth in an arch), partial dentures (for patients missing several but not all teeth), and implant-supported dentures (secured to dental implants for superior stability). We will help you determine the best solution based on your needs, bone health, and budget.

How long does it take to get dentures?

The denture process typically involves multiple appointments over several weeks. We take precise impressions and measurements to custom-fabricate dentures that fit your unique anatomy. For patients having teeth extracted, immediate dentures can be placed the same day as the extractions.

How long does it take to get used to wearing dentures?

Adjusting to dentures takes time. Most patients find it takes a few weeks to a few months to feel fully comfortable eating, speaking, and wearing their dentures consistently. Our team at Oasis Family Dentistry is available for follow-up adjustments to ensure the best possible fit and comfort.

How do I clean and care for my dentures?

Remove and rinse dentures after eating. Brush them daily with a soft-bristled denture brush and non-abrasive denture cleaner — never regular toothpaste, which can scratch the surface. Soak dentures overnight in a denture solution and handle them over a soft towel or basin of water to prevent breakage if dropped.

How long do dentures last?

Dentures typically last 5 to 10 years before they may need to be replaced due to normal wear and changes in the shape of your gums and jawbone. Regular checkups at Oasis Family Dentistry allow our team to monitor the fit of your dentures and identify when relining or replacement is needed.

Can I eat normally with dentures?

Most denture wearers can eat a wide variety of foods after a brief adjustment period. Start with soft foods cut into small pieces and gradually work up to firmer options. Some very hard, sticky, or chewy foods may always require caution. Implant-supported dentures provide greater stability and make eating much more comfortable.

Are dentures covered by dental insurance?

Many dental insurance plans provide partial coverage for dentures. Coverage amounts and waiting periods vary by plan. Our team at Oasis Family Dentistry will help verify your benefits and discuss flexible payment options. Call (425) 486-9245 to learn more.
