Missing Several Teeth? Learn More About Removal & Replacement

Replacing several missing teeth involves more than choosing an appliance. At Hanna Dental Group, we consider the condition of your remaining teeth and gums, your bite and oral anatomy, and your goals for appearance and daily use before discussing a path forward.

Patients considering dentures in Union City can also discuss whether tooth removal or other preparatory care may be necessary. Because we perform extractions and discuss replacement options, we can coordinate these decisions within an established dental relationship when clinically appropriate.

Denture Options for Different Patterns of Tooth Loss

Your examination may determine that one of the following denture categories, another tooth-replacement treatment, or preparatory care should be considered.

Options that may be discussed during a denture evaluation include:

• Full dentures: These appliances replace all teeth in the upper arch, lower arch, or both.
• Partial dentures: These appliances replace several missing teeth while fitting around the natural teeth that remain.
• Immediate dentures: These may be placed after teeth are removed, while conventional dentures are fitted after the gums have healed.
• Implant-supported dentures: These use dental implants for additional support when the patient is an appropriate candidate.

The appropriate category depends on your oral health, anatomy, treatment goals, and whether extractions or other preparation are needed. No single solution is right for every patient.

Planning Dentures in Union City

A denture consultation begins with your health, current concerns, and replacement goals. The evaluation may include a review of your dental history, an examination of your teeth and supporting tissues, and an assessment of your bite.

Important topics to discuss with us include:

• Medical conditions and medications that may affect dental treatment.
• Previous reactions to anesthesia or concerns about treatment comfort.
• Teeth that are painful, damaged, loose, or difficult to maintain.
• Priorities related to eating, speaking, appearance, and daily appliance care.

If a tooth extraction is necessary, we can explain the treatment sequence and discuss replacement choices such as dental implants, dental bridges, or partial dentures. Dr. Harvey Hanna completed a hospital residency at Hackensack University Medical Center that included training in oral surgery and restorative dentistry, providing relevant clinical background for this coordinated planning.

Denture Fit, Adjustments, & Daily Care

New dentures may require an adjustment period as you become accustomed to eating, speaking, and handling the appliance. Your experience and care instructions will depend on the appliance and the condition of your mouth.

Contact us if you develop sore areas, looseness, difficulty chewing, or changes in speech. Don’t reshape, bend, or adjust a denture at home. Changes made without a dental assessment may affect its fit.

Follow the cleaning and storage instructions provided for your appliance. Your gums, tongue, and any remaining natural teeth also need consistent oral hygiene. Continuing dental visits allow us to examine your gums and other oral tissues and evaluate the denture’s fit, even if you no longer have natural teeth.

Patient-Focused Guidance From Hanna Dental Group

We tailor each treatment discussion to the patient’s needs. We can explain the condition of your mouth, the options that may apply, any preparation required, and the follow-up decisions involved.

Dr. Harvey Hanna is a graduate of the NYU College of Dentistry. Our practice also accepts most insurance plans. Because coverage varies, you can contact us with your insurance information before deciding on treatment.
