Dentures are a practical and effective solution for individuals who have lost some or all of their teeth due to injury, decay, or age. They are custom-designed prosthetics that replicate the appearance and functionality of natural teeth, providing the wearer with the ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Dentures, offered by Cummings Dental in Bloomington, IN, are made from high-quality materials and designed to fit comfortably and securely in your mouth, providing you with a natural-looking smile you can be proud of.

Why Should I Get Dentures?
The decision to get dentures can significantly improve your quality of life. Losing teeth can impact your ability to chew food properly, which can lead to poor nutrition. Dentures restore your chewing function, allowing you to enjoy a wider variety of foods and maintain a healthy diet. Moreover, missing teeth can affect your speech and cause facial muscles to sag, making you look older. Dentures can enhance your speech clarity and restore the natural contours of your face, boosting your self-esteem and confidence.

The Benefits Of Dentures
Improved Oral Health
Dentures not only restore the aesthetics of your smile but also protect your oral health. When you lose teeth, the remaining ones can shift positions, leading to misalignment and potential jaw issues. Dentures fill in the gaps, preventing your natural teeth from shifting and promoting better oral health.
Enhanced Appearance
Dentures can dramatically enhance your appearance. By replacing missing teeth, they restore your smile and the natural shape of your face, which can be altered due to tooth loss. This can make you look younger and feel more confident in social situations.
Durability and Convenience
With proper care, dentures can last for many years, making them a long-term solution for tooth loss. They are also removable, making it easier for you to clean them and maintain your oral hygiene.
The Denture Treatment Process
Consultation and Examination
The first step in getting dentures is a comprehensive oral examination by Dr. Christopher Cummings. He will assess your oral health, discuss your needs and preferences, and determine the most suitable type of dentures for you.
Impressions and Customization
Once your treatment plan is established, impressions of your mouth will be taken. These impressions are used to create dentures that fit perfectly in your mouth. The process involves choosing the right color, shape, and size of artificial teeth to ensure your new smile looks natural.
Fitting and Adjustments
The final step is fitting the dentures. Dr. Cummings will place the dentures in your mouth and check for proper fit and comfort. Adjustments will be made as necessary to ensure optimal function and aesthetics. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priority.
