Sunrise Blvd Dental offers high-quality partial and complete dentures for those who have missing teeth. Dentures are an affordable replacement option if a disease, accident or poor oral health have left you with only a few teeth or none at all.

Our team of dental professionals will make impressions of your teeth, which are then used to create your customized dentures.

We offer special discount of $499 for both partial & Complete Dentures.

The *$499 covers the surgical placement of one dental implant for an average savings of $1500 per implant.

There are several ways to replace your missing teeth. Dentures are removable appliances that can replace missing teeth and help restore your smile. There are several types of dentures on the market—each made from different materials and serving different purposes.

Full Dentures

Full dentures, or complete dentures, consist of both upper and lower sets and are removable devices that can be used to replace missing teeth. They are best fit when one loses all his or her teeth. A conventional denture is ready within 8-12 months after any remaining teeth are extracted or removed to allow time for the jaws to heal.

Partial dentures

Upper and/or lower partial dentures are designed to fill the gap created by missing teeth. Partials can be unclipped and removed when needed. A removable partial denture consists of replacement teeth attached to a pink-coloured base, which is connected to a metal framework that holds the denture into place.

Immediate dentures

An immediate denture can often be made so that the patient has something to wear the same day the teeth are removed. This type of denture is made before the teeth are extracted and is put in place the day the teeth are removed. The purpose of these dentures is to replace the missing teeth during the healing process. They are easily refitted to accommodate changes in the mouth as gums and jaws heal.

Custom dentures

While other dentures are made to replace your missing teeth, custom dentures are specifically designed to suit your smile and preferences. These dentures are costly as they are custom-made for a more natural-looking smile.

Flexible dentures

Flexible dentures are a kind of partial denture, but they are made of different materials from ordinary partial dentures. Most flexible dentures are made of a thin thermoplastic such as nylon, compared to the thicker, more rigid acrylic used in full dentures.

Even if you wear full dentures, you still have to practice good dental hygiene. Brush your gums, tongue and roof of your mouth every morning with a soft-bristled brush before you insert your dentures to stimulate circulation in your tissues and help remove plaque.

COMPLETE AND PARTIAL DENTURES FROM ONLY $499!

Millions of people wear dentures (both full and partial dentures) so they don’t have to deal with problems that come along with missing teeth. Dentures can improve a person’s quality of life. Here are a few reasons:

1. You can speak more clearly

If you have missing teeth, you may find it difficult to speak clearly. Well that will change once you have a set of dentures.

2. You can eat normally and continue eating your favorite foods.

Dentures can also provide a more fulfilling diet as well. With faulty/cracked teeth, it can be hard to enjoy some of your favorite foods, especially foods that differ in temperature, like cold ice cream or warm soup. They can make it easier to return to your normal diet, as these replacements alleviate the sensitivity weak teeth create.

3. Improve your self esteem

Dentures nowadays look and feel natural. You won’t have to worry about them falling out or slipping, especially if the dentures are anchored securely into place.

4. Have a Healthier Smile

Missing teeth don’t just affect your smile, they also affect your jaw bone and facial structure. Dentures will replace your teeth and also prevent further bone loss in your jaw, making your mouth healthier overall.

5. Better Relationships

Being able to communicate clearly and properly will help you build better relationships. Not only will you be able to speak with clarity and confidence, but a healthy smile helps attract people, too.

Ways to protect your teeth during winter

The beginning of chilly months brings a lot of joy to our hearts. But in winters just like our rest of the body needs extra tender care, so does our teeth. Your teeth become susceptible to a wide variety of problems, including cracks and tooth sensitivity. Here are some ways to protect your teeth this winter.

Do not skip your dental appointments

The first and the most important point is to never miss your regular dental check-ups. Getting your teeth and gums checked increases the chances of the diseases being diagnosed right in their early stages.

Change the Way You Brush Your Teeth

If you suffer from sensitive teeth, you need to change the way you brush your teeth during the winter. First, switch to a soft-bristled toothbrush to protect your delicate enamel. Second, switch to a toothpaste designed for sensitive teeth. Third, brush your teeth twice a day to remove cavity-causing plaque. Usage of mouthwash at least twice a day is also recommended to keep your mouth germ free.

Take care of your gum

Do not forget to pay proper heed to your gums during the cold winter months. As mentioned before, the winter months are almost synonymous with flu, cold, fever, and other diseases. Unfortunately, the bacteria responsible for causing these diseases can also be the reason for gum infection or gingivitis.

Drink plenty of water

Consumption of an adequate amount of water plays a pivotal role in maintaining your oral health during the winter months. Less intake of water leads to dehydration of the human body. This has a direct impact on the production of saliva.

Diabetes and Oral Health

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease affecting more than 29 million Americans, or approximately 9% of the U.S. population. Problems with teeth and gums can be more common for people with diabetes, so good dental health is important to prevent dental complications developing.

GUM DISEASE

Plaque is a thin layer of bacteria that constantly forms on everyone’s teeth. Gum disease develops when plaque causes the tissues that hold your teeth in place to become irritated and inflamed.  In its early stages, it is called gingivitis. When you have gingivitis, your gums become red and swollen and may bleed when you brush or floss. Periodontitis is advanced gum disease. Left untreated, periodontitis can cause tooth loss.

THRUSH

People with diabetes also may be more likely to develop thrush. Thrush is a fungal (yeast) infection that can grow in your mouth, throat and other parts of your body. Thrush appears as white and red patches on your tongue and on the insides of your cheeks. It can cause a painful, burning sensation.

DRY MOUTH

Dry mouth is a common symptom in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes . Saliva keeps the mouth moist and reduces the risk of developing tooth decay. It bathes the teeth in fluoride, which helps strengthen enamel—the hard protective, outer layer of the tooth. People with diabetes produce less saliva than healthy adults. Saliva plays an important role in neutralizing acids produced by bacteria and keeping bacteria growth in check.
