Kalani R.Don’t let missing teeth or an uncomfortable appliance take the joy out of your smile. Dr. Ruhi Sangha and Dr. Praj Kamat of Transcendentist in Berkeley, CA offer customized dentures that are natural looking and comfortable to wear. With our consistent focus on individualized care and overall wellness, we understand that no single option is right for every patient, which is why we offer various styles and techniques. No matter which you choose, the result is a lovely and healthy smile.
Complete (full) dentures are designed to replace all the teeth in an arch. It is a single appliance, composed of a full set of natural looking prosthetic teeth in a gum-colored base. Your restorative dentist will use precise impression techniques to capture the subtle contours of your gums. This ensures a snug, yet comfortable fit that creates natural suction holding the denture in place. If needed, you can add a small amount of denture adhesive. Classic dentures are removable for easy cleaning.
This appliance is ideal for the patient who needs to replace multiple teeth, but not the entire arch. The design is highly customized, depending on the number and location of teeth to be replaced. Most often, it is fitted with special clasps that snap over teeth near the gap. A partial denture is easily removed for cleaning, but very secure and stable in the mouth. It is artistically designed to match your remaining teeth, for a fully functional and natural looking smile.
For the patient who wants the highest degree of stability and functionality in a denture, we may recommend securing it with implants. The denture may be permanently attached to the implants, or it may be a removable design that is fitted with attachments to snap over implants. Your dentist will begin with an evaluation of the bone structure and quality in the area to determine what options are viable, and help you choose the best solution to meet your goals.
If you are envisioning the poorly fitting and fake-looking dentures of yesteryear, think again. Dental technology and materials have improved by leaps and bounds in recent years, giving dentists a plethora of options to replace missing teeth. In truth, the aesthetics and functionality of modern dentures are limited only by the skill of the dentist, which is something our patients never have to worry about.Drs. Sangha and Kamat have years of cosmetic and restorative dentistry, coupled with a shared passion for helping patients live life to the fullest. From the décor in our reception area to our choice of dental equipment and materials, everything about our practice is designed with you in mind.
