Cosmetic Denture

This patient came into the office with an older denture that was worn out. There was numerous staining and many worn down teeth. The teeth in her old denture were a darker shade, masculine in appearance and set too short in relation to the lip line. We changed the color which is obvious, but we also increased the amount of tooth that shows when the patient smiles. Also, observe the shape of the teeth in the before and after pictures. The teeth in her before photograph are the shape you would see on a set of dentures designed for a man, not a woman. This is a much younger, much more feminine look for this patient. We also chose a much more expensive and cosmetic denture tooth was chosen. Even if you do not change the color, the shape and quality of the denture teeth can make a huge difference in appearance. Cheap denture teeth do not absorb and reflect light properly and add to the fake teeth appearance. In the end we were able to make a new set of dentures that made her smile brighter and whiter. The patient is very pleased with the shape, color and fit of her new dentures.
