Dentures

Reliable, Durable, Comfortable Dentures

A "denture" is a removable substitute for missing teeth and local gum tissue. Dr. Akeel can create partial or full dentures that mimic and often enhance the function and aesthetics of your natural teeth.

When all of your teeth are missing or require removal due to excessive decay, complete dentures are the ideal option. If you have a certain number of healthy teeth remaining, partial dentures are an effective alternative.

If you are considering the idea of getting dentures, we encourage you to visit Advanced Dental Care. Dr. Akeel can help you understand every aspect of the procedure, what to expect afterwards and how to acclimate to routinely wearing dentures.

If you have aging dentures that need replacement, Dr. Akeel prefers to use the Celara technique because it reduces treatment and healing time by up to 50 percent. In only 45 minutes, we can take upper and lower impressions and duplicate your bite with near perfect accuracy.

We can deliver predictable, comfortable, stabilized dentures in only three visits, compared to traditional techniques that require numerous additional visits. Visit our office and we will dispel any denture myths and provide you with the relevant information you need.

Eat Comfortably Again

Do you miss enjoying the freedom to eat without worry or discomfort — soft and hard foods? Dr. Ed Akeel can help.

The normal bite pressure for a healthy mouth is approximately 2,000 lbs. As you age and begin to lose teeth, that pressure can drop by over 50 percent to 700-800 pounds of pressure. That change relegates you to eating only soft foods, and that can be a very disappointing reality.

Do not fear! Dr. Akeel has perfected multiple painless tooth extraction and denture placement techniques that are fully capable of restoring your bite pressure and your ability to eat comfortably.

Since we use a mixture of injectable plastics (for resilience and elasticity) and porcelain blends (for durability and beauty), your dentures can actually look better than your teeth.

Our dental specialist, Dr. Ed Akeel, is ready and willing to listen to your denture questions and concerns and provide practical, factual answers to help you make the best decision. Give us a call today for a complimentary consultation.
