Next-Level Denture Options for a Natural Smile
Advancements in dental technology have transformed the perception and performance of dentures, dispelling concerns about discomfort and conspicuousness. With innovations like implant-supported dentures and 3D printing, aesthetic and functional outcomes have significantly improved. However, the quality of dentures varies widely, relying heavily on the practitioner’s skills and available technology.
At Almaden Valley Smile Design in San Jose, CA, we offer affordable traditional complete and partial dentures, recommending a reline every two years to maintain comfort and fit. Under the care of Dr. Clara Andirious, you’ll enjoy enhanced smile function and confidence. I’m wondering why you hadn’t opted for dentures sooner.

Change Your Smile and Life with Cost-Effective Dentures
At Almaden Valley Smile Design, we determine the most optimal type of denture based on your missing teeth, preference, and budget. During your comprehensive consultation, Dr. Clara Andirious will discuss potential choices and recommend a cost-effective solution with the greatest functional and cosmetic improvements. We offer highly competitive prices and third-party financing to make getting top-quality dentures in San Jose, CA an attainable dream.
Complete Dentures
If you’ve lost many or most of your teeth, complete dentures in San Jose, CA are an excellent option for transforming your smile beauty and restoring oral function and confidence! Complete or full dentures consist of color-matched prosthetic teeth placed into a gum-colored acrylic base. We typically wait eight to 12 weeks after your teeth have been extracted to take impressions and create this type of denture.
Immediate Dentures
If you qualify for immediate dentures, you can receive one right after the remaining teeth have been extracted. We take measurements and make models of your upper and lower arches to make this possible during a preliminary visit. An immediate denture typically doesn’t fit as precisely as a conventional denture because it takes 6-8 weeks to heal following extraction. After shrinkage of the underlying bone has occurred (about six months following extractions), an immediate denture must be relined or replaced with a new denture.
Partial Dentures
If you’re only missing a handful of teeth, a partial denture in San Jose, CA may be the perfect solution to fill these gaps. This type of denture features the same kind of false teeth as a complete denture, but the prosthetic attaches to natural teeth with discreet metal or acrylic clasps. If you’re looking for an affordable denture near you, a partial denture in combination with dental crowns can provide more seamless aesthetics.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures are held in place by dental implants, so they eliminate slippage and stress on your gums, don’t require adhesive to stay in place and enable eating all the foods you love. Most importantly, because the implants replace your missing natural tooth roots, the underlying bone is stimulated when you chew, so it stays healthy. This also helps prevent undesirable facial changes that sometimes can occur with traditional dentures. Dr. Clara Andirious will help you decide if removable or fixed implant-supported dentures better suit your oral health needs and lifestyle.
