Dentures
An Oral Health Solution for Missing Teeth
If you’re missing teeth, dentures can help restore your smile, improve your bite, and support long-term dental health. At The Dental Hub in Columbus, OH, Dr. Anthony DiNapoli, Dr. Daniel Lebowitz, and Dr. Kyle Zumfelde provide high-quality, custom-crafted dentures designed to look and feel as natural as possible—so you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.
Types of Dentures
We offer several types of dentures to meet your needs, whether you’re replacing all of your natural teeth or just a few.
Full Dentures
Also known as complete dentures, these are ideal for patients who are missing all teeth in the upper or lower arch, or both. They rest on your gums and the roof of your mouth (for upper dentures) and are removable for easy cleaning and maintenance.
Partial Dentures
If you still have some healthy natural teeth, a partial denture can fill the gaps while helping preserve your bite. These removable appliances often include clasps that anchor to nearby natural teeth for added stability.
Immediate Dentures
Placed the same day as your tooth extractions, immediate dentures let you leave our office with a full smile. After your mouth heals, we’ll create a final set of dentures made for a more precise, comfortable, long-term fit.
Why Invest in Dentures?
Dentures do more than replace missing teeth—they help restore balance, comfort and function to your mouth while supporting your overall health and appearance. Without proper tooth replacement, the jawbone can shrink over time, which may lead to facial changes and increased difficulty with eating or speaking.
Custom dentures from The Dental Hub help:
- Improve chewing ability: so you can enjoy a wider variety of foods
- Support your lips and cheeks for a fuller, more youthful facial appearance
- Reduce oral issues like soreness, irritation and bad breath
- Prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of place
- Enhance saliva flow which helps keep your mouth moist and comfortable
What to Expect as a New Denture Wearer
Adjusting to new dentures takes time, and it’s completely normal to have some initial soreness or inflammation. Don’t worry, we’ll guide you through the adjustment process and provide tips to make daily wear more comfortable. Proper care is essential—regular brushing, gently using a toothbrush, and soaking your dentures overnight will help prevent plaque, stains, and irritation.
Some patients find denture adhesive helpful for a more secure fit and added comfort. And don’t worry—our team will make sure your new dentures look natural and fit comfortably before you leave.
How to Care for Your Dentures
Caring for your dentures is simple but important for keeping your mouth healthy and your smile looking its best. Here are a few tips:
- Remove them at night to let your gums rest
- Use a soft toothbrush or denture brush to clean them daily
- Avoid harsh toothpaste, which can scratch the surface
- Rinse after eating to remove trapped food
- Schedule regular checkups to monitor the fit and your overall oral health
Our team is always here to help. Whether you need a fit adjustment, have questions, or notice irritation, we’re just a phone call away.
