Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures

Question: Do dentures look natural?

Answer: Yes, at The Silverstrom Group, we strive to provide restorations that blend seamlessly with a patient’s features. We use dental porcelain to craft your replacement teeth. Porcelain reflects light in a similar manner as natural tooth enamel, so your dentures will look and function like the real thing.

Question: Will my dentures be custom-made?

Answer: Dentures are definitely not a “one size fits all” product. In order to avoid embarrassing slippage when speaking or talking and to ease general discomfort, we take impressions of your mouth and use computer technology to design your dentures. We want all of our patients to receive snug and comfortable dentures.

Question: Can I receive permanent dentures?

Answer: Yes. With dental implants, your Livingston dentists can secure a permanent set of full or partial dentures. Implants are biocompatible titanium post placed into the socket of a missing tooth. The implants are topped with an abutment that holds your new crown in place. Dental implants are non-removable and require the same care your could give your natural teeth.
