Dentures
If you’re missing most or all your natural teeth, dentures can restore your smile's appearance and function. Our experienced dentists provide dentures in Tulsa to help you eat, speak, and smile confidently.
Dentures for a Confident Smile
Dentures are custom-made prosthetic teeth attached to a gum-colored base, designed to fit securely with or without dental implants. They are a great solution for those missing several or all-natural teeth due to injury or oral health issues. Our denture process typically includes four appointments to ensure the best fit and appearance:
- 1st appointment — Scans, impressions, and photos are taken for custom denture fabrication.
- 2nd appointment — Final impressions and bite alignment adjustments.
- 3rd appointment — Wax teeth fitting for final approval.
- 4th appointment — Delivery and final adjustments to ensure comfort.
Schedule a consultation to discuss your options and find the best denture solution for you.

What are the different types of dentures?
Several types of dentures are available, and we’ll help you choose the right one based on your needs and budget:
- Traditional dentures — Removable and easy to clean, these dentures rely on suction to stay in place.
- Partial dentures — Ideal for replacing a few missing teeth, partials can be removed for cleaning and sleeping.
- Implant-supported dentures — These snap onto dental implants for added security and are easily removable for cleaning. They can also help prevent bone loss.
- Fixed dentures — Permanently secured with implants, these dentures feel more like natural teeth and don’t require removal.
