The Advantages of Handcrafted Dentures

Once you had your last visit from the tooth fairy, you likely thought losing a tooth was a thing of the past. 

Unfortunately, tooth loss is a common problem for adults. Around a quarter of adults over 65 have eight or fewer teeth, and 17% have lost all their teeth. Any degree of tooth loss can cause self-esteem issues and significantly impact oral and overall health. 

That’s where we come in. 

Jason Alsbury, LD at Apex Denture Studio, specializes in handcrafted dentures that radically transform your smile from gummy to gorgeous. Here’s a closer look at what handcrafted dentures are and why they’re worth the investment. 

What are handcrafted dentures?

In the past, dentures were considered a last resort for tooth replacement, but over the years, expert denturists have perfected them and made them the gold standard. 

We achieve this by using state-of-the-art imaging technology and advanced techniques to create dentures that perfectly fit your mouth and oral health needs. 

The following are just some of the benefits of making sure a specialist handcrafts your dentures. 

1. Handcrafted dentures are more comfortable

Your friends with dentures have likely told you a horror story or two about their ill-fitting dentures — but you don’t have to worry about that when you get them from us. 

We use cutting-edge digital dentistry tools to take precise measurements of your mouth. This helps us make sure that the dentures you receive are the dentures that fit you best. 

Our patients enjoy fewer sores and much less discomfort. If your mouth's landscape changes and your dentures stop fitting perfectly, see us for denture repairs and/or denture relines to restore your dentures’ perfect fit. 

2. Handcrafted dentures function better

Because we can virtually guarantee your dentures will fit perfectly, you can also expect them to function flawlessly. There’s still a bit of a learning curve when you first get your dentures, but a snug, comfortable fit helps you start off on the right foot. 

3. Handcrafted dentures look better

The materials we use to make your dentures look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. That means you can laugh, chew, talk, sing, read books with your grandkids, and more, all the while knowing you’re flashing sturdy pearly whites.
