Dentures in Franklin, MA

Full and Partial Dentures in Franklin

Full Dentures

A full denture replaces every tooth in an upper or lower arch and is custom-shaped to support your natural facial structure, helping your cheeks and lips maintain their fullness. We offer immediate dentures, placed the same day your teeth are removed, and conventional dentures, placed after your gums have healed for a more precise long-term fit. We will help you choose the right option during your consultation.

Partial Dentures

A partial denture fills gaps left by a few missing teeth while your remaining natural teeth stay in place. A metal or acrylic framework clips onto nearby teeth, restoring your bite and helping prevent the shifting that can occur with untreated gaps. Partial dentures in Franklin are often suitable for patients who still have healthy teeth worth protecting.

Denture Relines, Adjustments, and Repairs

Gums and jawbone can change shape over time, which may leave an older denture loose or uncomfortable. We reline and adjust existing dentures at our Franklin office so they fit securely again. We can also repair cracked or broken dentures on-site when possible.

Signs You May Need Dentures in Franklin

• Several missing or severely decayed teeth that cannot be saved with a filling, crown, or root canal
• Teeth that have become loose due to advanced gum disease
• Difficulty chewing certain foods or noticeable changes in speech
• An existing denture that no longer fits, clicks, slips, or causes sore spots
• Missing teeth that you have not yet addressed

Not sure which situation applies to you? That is what the consultation is for. Our Franklin team will examine your mouth and explain whether a denture, bridge, or implant makes the most sense for your needs.

The Denture Process in Franklin

1. Consultation: We examine your teeth, gums, and jaw to recommend a full denture, partial denture, or another restoration.
2. Impressions and Measurements: We design your denture to match your bite precisely, rather than relying only on general tooth size.
3. Fitting: Once your denture is fabricated, we check its fit, comfort, and appearance and make adjustments if anything feels uncomfortable.
4. Follow-Up Care: Most patients need one or two adjustment visits as their gums settle, which we schedule proactively.
5. Long-Term Maintenance: Periodic checkups help us identify fit changes early and complete relines or repairs before larger problems develop.
