Dentures from Steven K. Okamoto, DDS

While trends in dental technology come and go, dentures have long been many patients’ go-to choice for replacing teeth. Made to take the place of one tooth, several, or even a full arch, dentures are removable and can be made from a variety of materials to suit your needs for aesthetics and durability. At the dental office of Drs. Steven and Michelle Okamoto, our restorative dental treatments include dentures in Torrance, CA.

As dentures have been in existence for decades, there are any number of ways to fabricate prosthetics to fit patients’ needs, whether that’s through flexible partials or sturdy new teeth with a metal framework. At our dental office, dentures are fitted to ensure that your new smile is as comfortable as possible. Our patients choose dentures, as the process for restoring your smile with this treatment is:Dentures

Non-Invasive – Fitting patients for and placing a removable denture does not require extensive, invasive treatment. There is no downtime or healing required to receive dentures.

Customizable – Advancements in the ways dentures are made had changed over the years, to include partials made of flexible yet durable plastic. Dentures can also be created from acrylic, resin, and metal to protect fit, feel, and aesthetics.

Economical – More complex procedures typically includes costs that patients do not think about beforehand, but with dentures, there are no surgical expenses to cover.  Impressions are made of your smile so that prosthetics can be created to fit well, but there is typically no other cost to cover in your treatment plan that the cost of the prosthetic. Depending on coverage, dentures may even be partially funded by your insurance plan.

Okamoto provided implant-supported dentures as well. While this denture alternative does involve the surgical placement of implant posts, we can provide this service directly at our office and can keep implant placement minimal to make care affordable and to create a stronger attachment for your dentures than denture paste.
