Same Day Denture Repair

What is a Partial Denture ?
A Partial Denture is a removable appliance that replaces one or multiple missing teeth in the same jaw. There are several types of partial dentures that are available to patients; Stay-plate, or temporary partial, is made out of acrylic with plastic teeth. It can replace all missing teeth in the same jaw, or just front ones for temporary aesthetics.
Metal Partial, silver or clear, is done for long-term use to replace partially missing teeth and restore chewing function to an optimum level. It is made of a metal skeleton that grasps the partial onto the remaining teeth with acrylic attached to it supporting plastic teeth.
Flexible partial, originally carrying the name Valplast after the company who introduced the concept in dentistry, is made purely out of plastic prepared under high temperatures. Over the years, this material evolved, giving patients many choices of colors to match any possible coloration of the gums. These partials are very durable besides being the primary choice for aesthetics.
What is a Full Denture?
A Full Denture is a removable appliance that replaces all of the missing teeth in the same arch. Therefore, a full denture procedure can be done to replace either all upper or all lower teeth. They are fabricated by the dental laboratory and made individually for every single patient. In case of complete loss of teeth, dentures allow patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Implants

What are dental implants?
Dental implants are replacement tooth roots made of titanium. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth. Instead of individual crowns, some patients may have attachments on their implant that support a removable denture

CHECK OUT WHAT OUR PATIENTS HAVE TO SAY...
Have been going to Dr. Ellen for more than 15 years. Dr. Ellen is remarkable. The staff is very friendly and professional. The facility is clean and well maintained. Was going to have a cavity filled which turned into root canal. Dr. Norton and her assistant Maria were a great team. I'm actually no longer apprehensive about going to the dentist since I started with Lake Mead Dental. THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME KEEP MY SMILE!

I got an appointment within the week I called. Every staff member I met was friendly and helpful. The dentist and her tech worked diligently to get my dentures completed AND right. Adjustment appointments are easy to get.

I have been coming here since I was a kid. Something like 15 years. I recently had some painful emergencies and was reminded that I have always been treated with compassion by this staff. Wigwag is the location I am used to but for convenience I went to their Lake Mead location and same thing... The kindness and attentiveness was palpable. I appreciate everyone at both locations. The dentist is my worst nightmare but they always reassure me and remind me that they are here to help me not hurt me. Thank you everyone and Sabina- I am overwhelmed with gratitude. A very special Thank you to you.
