Denture Care Near Lantana, Lake Worth, Greenacres, Wellington, West Palm Beach, Delray Beach, and Boynton Beach
Dentures are custom dental appliances used to replace missing teeth. Some patients need a full denture to replace all upper or lower teeth. Others need a partial denture to replace several missing teeth while keeping healthy natural teeth in place.
At Complete Dental Care at JFK, we focus on creating dentures that look natural, fit comfortably, and support everyday function. Whether you are getting dentures for the first time, replacing an older denture, or dealing with a loose or damaged denture, our team can help you understand your options.
Denture Options at Complete Dental Care at JFK
Full Dentures
Full dentures replace an entire upper arch, lower arch, or both. They are commonly used when a patient has lost most or all natural teeth because of decay, gum disease, injury, or long-term dental problems.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures replace several missing teeth while using remaining healthy teeth for support. They can help improve chewing, appearance, and bite balance.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures use dental implants to help secure the denture. This option may reduce slipping and improve chewing confidence for the right patient.
Denture Repairs and Adjustments
Loose, cracked, uncomfortable, or damaged dentures should be checked by a dental professional. Adjustments and repairs can help improve comfort and function.
Full Dentures
Full dentures replace all teeth in the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both. They can help restore your smile, support your face, and improve your ability to chew many foods.
A full denture may be recommended when the remaining teeth are no longer healthy enough to keep, or when a patient has already lost all teeth in one arch.

Replace missing teeth with a removable option
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. A partial denture fills the gaps left by missing teeth and helps keep surrounding teeth from shifting.
A partial denture may be a good option if you are missing several teeth, still have healthy natural teeth, and want a removable tooth replacement solution.
Good Fit List
You are missing several teeth
You still have healthy natural teeth
You want a removable tooth replacement option
You need a practical alternative to implants or bridges
You want to improve chewing and smile appearance
Implant-Supported Dentures and Overdentures
Some patients want more stability than traditional removable dentures can provide. In those cases, implant-supported dentures or overdentures may be recommended.
These options use dental implants to help secure the denture. This can reduce slipping, improve chewing confidence, and create a stronger fit for many patients.
Dr. Jackie Johns, DMD has practiced implant dentistry for more than 30 years and is experienced with complex dental implant cases. If implants may improve your denture result, our team can explain your options clearly.
Denture Repairs and Adjustments
A denture should not cause ongoing pain, sores, or daily frustration. If your denture feels loose, rubs your gums, cracks, breaks, or no longer fits properly, schedule an appointment.
Because Complete Dental Care at JFK has access to on-site lab support, many denture and prosthetic repair needs can be handled more efficiently than offices that rely only on outside labs.

What to Expect During a Denture Consultation
At Complete Dental Care at JFK, we make the denture process simple and clear. Your visit starts with an exam, a conversation about your goals, and a recommendation based on your oral health.
Process Steps
Step 1: Dental Exam and Consultation
We examine your mouth, gums, bite, and any remaining teeth. We listen to your concerns and explain your options.
Step 2: Treatment Planning
We recommend the right type of denture based on your oral health, comfort needs, budget, and long-term goals.
Step 3: Impressions and Measurements
Accurate impressions and bite records help create a denture that fits your mouth.
Step 4: Try-In and Adjustments
When needed, we check the look, feel, and fit before the final denture is completed.
Step 5: Final Denture Placement
We place your denture, review care instructions, and make sure you understand how to use and maintain it.
Step 6: Follow-Up Care
Adjustments are common as your mouth adapts. We are here to help improve comfort and fit.
Dentures After Tooth Extractions
Some patients need dentures after damaged, infected, or failing teeth are removed. If extractions are needed, our team will explain the timing and treatment plan before moving forward.
Depending on your case, we may discuss immediate dentures, healing dentures, or a final denture after your gums have healed.

Dentures FAQs
What are dentures?
Dentures are custom appliances that replace missing teeth. They may replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw, or they may replace only several missing teeth.
What is the difference between full dentures and partial dentures?
Full dentures replace all teeth in an arch. Partial dentures replace several missing teeth while using remaining natural teeth for support.
Do dentures look natural?
Modern dentures can be designed to look natural and fit your face, gums, and smile. The goal is to create a result that looks comfortable, balanced, and realistic.
How long does it take to get dentures?
The timeline depends on your needs. Some patients need extractions first. Others may be ready for impressions and denture planning right away. Same-day options may be available when clinically appropriate.
Can dentures be repaired?
Yes. Many broken, cracked, loose, or uncomfortable dentures can be repaired or adjusted. Schedule an appointment before trying to fix a denture at home.
Are implant dentures better than regular dentures?
Implant-supported dentures may provide more stability for some patients. They are not the right choice for everyone. A consultation can determine whether implants are a good option for your mouth.
Do I still need dental visits if I wear dentures?
Yes. Regular visits help check your gums, oral tissues, bite, and denture fit. If you still have natural teeth, they also need ongoing care.
