It’s no fun dealing with the daily struggle of ill-fitting dentures. The team at Prosthetic Dentistry of Tumwater can help. We can fit you with well-fitting dentures that, in most instances, will stay right where you want them without rubbing, clicking, or popping out. We understand that dentures are a very personal experience and that it is different for each person. In most situations, the proper fit will make a huge difference in everyday life.
We offer conventional full and partial dentures for both jaws, or for the best fit and performance, we can secure a set of dentures to dental implants. Not only will implant-secured dentures stay in place with no suction or adhesives, but dental implants will also help keep you healthier longer. It can lead to a healthier and happier life.

- Will dental implants work for me? A:
Dental implants are titanium tooth roots that an oral surgeon or periodontist can place in your jaw to secure one or more replacement teeth. In general, most people are good candidates. We can help you determine if implants will work for you. Some people may require bone grafting which is quite common today. After healing for a few months, your bone will be in good shape and capable of supporting implants and replacement teeth in most situations.
