What Are Cosmetic Dentures?

Cosmetic dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth. In addition, these same dentures can also replace some of the gum tissue. Not all dentures are created equal. At South Lincoln Family Dentistry, our dentists in Lincoln, NE offer the most life-like options for cosmetic dentures that are available. These dentures are made from the most advanced material science has to offer. Thus, ensuring a long-lasting, enhanced appearance.


Cosmetic Dentures Offer Teeth That Are Right For You!


You might wonder why some dentures look like real teeth, and others have the distinct “denture appearance.” There are three reasons for choosing cosmetic dentures.

3 Reasons for Choosing Cosmetic Dentures

1. The shape of the teeth are for a cosmetic denture:

The placement of the teeth is critical in creating a natural smile. This is determined by aesthetic guidelines based on your facial features. Teeth for cosmetic dentures are chosen carefully. Thus ensuring we create an excellent match for the shape of your teeth.

2. Colors and surface texture of the teeth:

The placement of teeth on cosmetic dentures are designed to look like natural teeth. This includes gender-specific color and tooth shapes. Additionally, both will complement the age and personality of the patient.

3. Materials used for making cosmetic dentures:

Cosmetic dentures are crafted of highly durable acrylic resin or nanohybrid composite material. Consequently, the dentures are resistant to chipping, cracking, staining, and everyday wear. An advanced layering technique makes these teeth look incredibly life-like. Because of this, the teeth will display the depth and beauty of natural teeth. The extreme smile makeovers you see on TV, use the same material.

What is the cost of cosmetic dentures and do you offer payment plans?

What exactly are immediate dentures?

Immediate dentures are those dentures that are provided to you as part of the process. Immediate dentures are included in the total price of your cosmetic dentures. Because we care and want excellent results for our patients, we offer immediate dentures to allow time for healing. Should the final dentures be made while the tissues in the mouth are still swollen, the fit would be sub-par. This would be similar to trying on a new pair of jeans right after knee replacement surgery. Once the swelling goes down, our dentists in Lincoln, NE can create a final set of beautiful cosmetic dentures. The final product will fit like a glove!

What is a complete cosmetic denture?

A complete cosmetic denture is custom made and takes several appointments. This particular denture does not have implant attachments. It is often suitable for an upper denture; particularly in patients who are looking for a custom upper denture to compliment a lower over-denture or hybrid prosthesis. This option is superior to conventional dentures as patients get two sets of dentures instead of one. It takes time for the bone to remodel after removing teeth, which is why we make the first set to be used right after the teeth are removed. The 2nd set comes after a healing period of 3-4 months. This will ensure a perfect fit and the most natural-looking smile possible. This procedure is typically not covered by dental insurance. Also, it will require multiple appointments with our dentists in Lincoln, NE to ensure superior fit.

What is the quality and benefit of having cosmetic dentures?

Not all dentures are created equal. Some may do more harm than good. Economy dentures are not always made to fit. In general, they can end up moving around, causing poor retention and sores in your mouth. Precise measurements are taken to create a perfect fit because everyone is different. Our skillfully designed cosmetic dentures provide you with a real smile based on your personality and facial characteristics. The final result, a smile that perfectly fits you!

How soon after having my teeth extracted will I get my cosmetic dentures?

Upon extraction of your teeth, we will provide you with a pair of dentures to use. This allows us time to finish creating your new permanent dentures. As previously mentioned, this temporary pair comes with the cost of your permanent dentures. We value open communication and our dentists in Lincoln, NE, check in regularly with our patients as we create their dentures.

Problems commonly experienced with any denture.

  • Removal of natural teeth will result in bone loss and without the placement of an implant, bone loss will occur. Without any teeth in your jaw bone, that bone will start to dissolve and will no longer support the denture as it did before.
  • As you lose bone, and dentures become loose, a denture adhesive may be necessary. The adhesive will help keep them in place.
  • Dentures can alter your perception of taste.
  • Loss of confidence and chewing ability. As dentures become loose, even with adhesive, you may lose your strength and confidence in chewing hard or tough foods.

If you still have questions, our team is here to help. Below are answers to a few of the most common questions.

Are dentures part of cosmetic dentistry?

Typically, anything that is done to enhance the aesthetics of someone’s smile is considered cosmetic, which would include dentures. Other examples of cosmetic dentistry include things such as teeth whitening, Botox®, and veneers just to name a few.

Not only do dentures enhance the appearance of a smile by filling the void of missing teeth they do also allow for greater function over that of an edentulous mouth.

What is the difference between dentures and cosmetic dentures?

In general, traditional dentures are a removable replacement for some or all lost teeth and aren’t as “custom” as other available options. Tooth loss can happen for a variety of reason which can include decay, trauma, or periodontal disease.

Cosmetic dentures on the other hand, are made to look and feel just like your natural teeth. For some, dentures are a great option for filling the gaps that missing teeth have left.

How much does a full set of cosmetic dentures cost?

The truth is that the cost of dentures can be all over the place. Partial dentures tend to cost less than others and are typically somewhere in the $1000 range. You can, however, spend upwards of $5000 or more for top-of-the-line dentures. Because everyone is different and the options you choose may vary, this, in turn, means that the cost will also vary.

Choosing to fix or upgrade your smile is one of the best investments that you can make. Not only will you gain self-esteem, but you will also help promote better oral and overall health. Replacing missing teeth really is important and our “dentist near me” in Lincoln, NE would love to help you.
