Dentures in Nairobi

Losing teeth is a common issue that can arise from various causes, such as advanced tooth decay, gum disease, injury, or extraction. Missing teeth can affect both your appearance and self-confidence while also leading to challenges like difficulty in chewing and speaking. Additionally, gaps left by missing teeth can cause neighboring teeth to shift, potentially resulting in bite problems and further tooth loss.

Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore your smile’s form and function. They are designed to resemble natural teeth and gums, providing a realistic and aesthetically pleasing appearance. 

At Arrow Dental Centre, we understand the significant impact that missing teeth can have on your oral health, appearance, and overall quality of life. Our dental clinic in Nairobi specializes in crafting high-quality dentures using the latest techniques and technology, ensuring a comfortable fit and a natural look.

When are Dentures Recommended

Dentures are a versatile and effective solution for replacing missing teeth. At Arrow Dental, our dentists may recommend dentures for a variety of situations that include:

Complete Tooth Loss in One or Both Jaws: Complete Dentures are recommended if all teeth are missing in either the upper or lower jaw to provide full arch restoration. 

Partial Tooth Loss with Remaining Healthy Teeth: Partial Dentures are ideal when some healthy natural teeth remain. They fill in the gaps left by missing teeth.

Severe Tooth Decay or Gum Disease: When teeth are extensively damaged and cannot be saved, extraction followed by dentures can restore oral health and function.

Significant Tooth Wear or Erosion: For individuals with teeth that are severely worn down or eroded, dentures can provide a functional and aesthetically pleasing solution.

What to Expect with Dentures

Learn more about the types of dentures available and the benefits of the procedure on your well-being.

Dentures come in various types, each tailored to meet different needs and preferences.

Full (Complete) Dentures

Full dentures also known as complete dentures are used when all teeth in an arch are missing.

  • Conventional Full Dentures: These are placed after any remaining teeth have been extracted and the gum tissue has healed. Healing may take several months, during which the patient may be without teeth.
  • Immediate Full Dentures: These are prepared in advance and can be positioned immediately after teeth extraction. However, they may require adjustments as the jaw heals and reshapes.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are suitable for individuals missing some but not all teeth.

  • Removable Partial Dentures: Consist of replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored plastic base, connected by a metal framework that holds the denture in place.
  • Fixed Partial Dentures (Bridges): Permanently affixed using crowns placed over adjacent teeth, serving as anchors for artificial teeth.

Dentures provide numerous advantages to individuals who have lost some or all of their teeth. Some of the key benefits include:

  1. Enhanced Appearance: Dentures are crafted to closely match the appearance of your natural teeth and support facial muscles, preventing the sunken look often associated with missing teeth.
  2. Improved Oral Function: Dentures restore the ability to chew food properly, enabling individuals to enjoy a wide variety of foods without difficulty.
  3. Increased Confidence and Self-Esteem: Restored smiles make people more comfortable in social settings and can significantly boost self-esteem. Additionally, replacing missing teeth with dentures can reduce self-consciousness and anxiety related to tooth loss.
  4. Support for Surrounding Teeth: Partial dentures prevent remaining natural teeth from shifting into gaps, which can lead to misalignment or bite problems.
  5. Cost-Effective Solution: Dentures are generally more affordable than some other tooth replacement solutions, such as implants or bridges. They also offer patients the flexibility of choosing different types based on their budget and requirements.
  6. Ease of Maintenance: Removable dentures can be cleaned easily, just like natural teeth, with regular brushing and soaking. Also, minor damages can be repaired without needing a complete replacement.
