With so many advances in modern dentistry, fewer people need to wear full dentures.  If you have older dentures or think you may need dentures, you're in luck.  Denture technology in the Cupertino area has never been better.

As people age, dentures can cause wearers to look older than they really are and can cause pain when chewing.  Dr. Sands can replace worn out dentures with custom made, state-of-the-art dentures that blend with your skin, hair and even eye color. Your dentures will look as natural as possible, even down to the fillings.

Before going to the plastic surgeon, get a "face lift" with comfortable, attractive dentures at Joseph A Sands in Cupertino.

Types of Dentures:

Complete dentures
These replace all of your teeth, upper or lower. Their comfort depends on muscle, bones, tongue, and saliva. Patients begin wearing conventional dentures after healing the teeth that were pulled.

Immediate dentures
Immediate dentures are placed all at once, and may require additional adjustments after the healing process. It can take months for your bone and tissue to stabilize after tooth extractions.

Over dentures
Over Dentures are a type of conventional denture similar to Complete Dentures. The difference is that not all teeth are extracted and they use one or more natural teeth for their support. This type provides greater stabilization during chewing. Over Dentures cost more and typically require more preparation and dental appointments until the procedure is fully complete.
