Reclaim Your Smile With Your Choice of Replacement Teeth
Thanks to the restorative and implant expertise of Dr. Bill Ligon, a member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, you’ll enjoy multiple denture options:
- Conventional Full Dentures – These removable replacement teeth are the de facto standard for dentures. Often the most affordable choice, they are easy to remove for daily cleaning and maintenance.
- Conventional Partial Dentures – Partial dentures can be a good option if you still have some teeth left. Unlike a bridge, they won’t require you to receive dental crowns on your nearby teeth to support them. Like full dentures, they can be easily taken out for cleaning.
- Implant-Retained Dentures – These dentures attach directly to dental implants with a system of snaps and balls. They give you a stronger bite than conventional dentures and also help prevent the bone loss in your jaw that results from losing teeth.
- Implant-Supported Dentures – These replacement teeth don’t attach directly to implants but to a bar that is anchored by implants. The bar transfers most of the biting force to your jaw, giving them functionality that is the most like your natural teeth.
- All-on-4® Dental Implants – You can receive a complete arch of fixed replacement teeth attached to as few as four dental implants. We can perform the procedure in the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both jaws.
- Temporary Dentures – We can outfit you with a temporary denture you can wear while your mouth heals from extractions.

Common Questions About Dentures
In general, most patients can expect their new dentures to be made in about one to two weeks. Some cases may take a little longer, and some a little shorter. You will then try them on to make sure they fit, and we’ll make any needed adjustments if they don’t. We can provide you with temporary dentures to wear while your final restorations are being made. That way, you don’t ever have to be without your teeth again.
Dentures can vary widely in cost, depending on the style you choose and your individual circumstances. We would need to examine you and develop some treatment options before we could give you an accurate estimate. We do offer third-party financing through CareCredit to make your dentures more accessible.
Thanks to advances in dental technology, you can enjoy nearly any food you desire without dietary limitations. While conventional dentures may require you to alter your eating habits, implant-supported dentures provide a more natural biting function. With this option, you can eat a wide variety of crunchy or chewy foods, since implant-supported dentures offer a bite strength comparable to having a full set of natural teeth.
