Dentures in Webster Groves, MO

When you lose a tooth, it can become difficult to eat and speak and embarrassing to smile. It’s natural to want to replace your lost tooth as soon as possible, as doing so will instantly improve your quality of life. 

Dentures are one popular tooth replacement option. At Webster Groves Dental, Dr. Matthew Wenzel, DMD can create a denture that will help restore your smile, health, and self-confidence. To learn more about dentures, keep reading below! 

Full Sets & Partial Dentures

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices designed to replace a missing tooth or teeth. There are two types of dentures: partial dentures and full dentures. As their names suggest, the two styles offer different levels of coverage and tooth replacement in your mouth. 

Both full and partial dentures stay in place by resting on your gums, but partial dentures also use clasps to grab onto your remaining teeth. We design partial dentures to replace one or several missing teeth, while full dentures replace all the teeth along a dental arch.

At Webster Groves Dental, we offer full and partial dentures for patients in need of tooth replacement. If you are completely edentulous (missing all of your teeth), we will recommend full dentures. If you still have healthy, active teeth within your mouth, partial dentures are going to be the better choice.

Caring for Your Dentures

Dentures require daily special attention to ensure lasting quality. It’s not a good idea to clean your dentures with toothpaste. Instead, you should rinse and brush your dentures with a soft-bristle toothbrush and gentle cleanser, such as ordinary dish soap.

When you are not wearing your dentures, you need to soak them in a denture-cleaning solution. It’s also a good idea to check in with your dentist regularly, even if you have a full set of dentures in Webster Groves. That way, you can easily maintain your gum and soft tissue health.

Alternatives to Dentures

Our patients sometimes ask us if there are alternatives to dentures. Advancing technology offers more solutions for replacing teeth, such as dental implants.

Dental implants are a permanent and fixed solution that feel and look like your natural teeth without requiring additional special cleaning. You can sometimes even use dental implants and dentures together to create the best version of your new smile.

I am so happy with Dr. Wenzel and all of his office staff! I needed to switch my long-time dental practice (40+ years) last year due to insurance coverage. Pretty difficult for me, since I had been very satisfied with them. I have had exams, xrays, a crown replaced & now a cleaning done with Dr. Wenzel & his staff. They are excellent, very professional and the atmosphere is warm & friendly. From the moment you walk into his office, til the moment you leave, you are treated with respect. I definitely give Webster Groves Dental Practice with Dr. Wenzel a 5 star review. I'm so glad I found them!!

Great office staff, the space is calm, everyone is helpful and kind. Matthew is straight forward, offers sound advice, no upselling. They offer late appointments which works well with my schedule.

Started with Dr. Wenzel about a year ago. Very good dentist and staff. Received an excellent cleaning by the hygienist today. You would be very lucky to have him as your dentist.

Today was my first time to visit the practice. They had all of my records from my previous dentist and insurance information. I was greeted as if I was a longtime patient and had a very thorough cleaning and examination. An all around great experience.
