At West Chester Family Dentistry, every set of dentures is custom-crafted to fit your mouth comfortably and look natural, using high-quality acrylic teeth and gum-colored bases.
Dentures are removable prosthetics designed to replace missing teeth and restore oral function. Whether you need a full set of dentures or want to explore implant-supported options, your dentist will discuss the available options and help determine what may work for your situation.

The Denture Process
Getting dentures involves several appointments to ensure a precise fit and natural appearance:
- Comprehensive evaluation and impressions of your mouth for custom fabrication.
- Try-in appointment to check the fit, bite, and appearance before final processing.
- Final delivery and adjustments to ensure comfort and proper function.
- Follow-up visits to fine-tune the fit as your mouth adjusts to the new dentures.
Finding the Right Denture Solution
The right type of denture depends on how many teeth you are missing, the health of your remaining teeth and gums, and your personal preferences for stability and convenience. During your consultation, we will discuss all available options and help you make an informed decision.
If you are currently wearing dentures that feel loose, uncomfortable, or outdated, we can evaluate whether a reline, a new set, or an upgrade to implant-supported dentures would improve your experience.
Types of Dentures We Offer
We provide several denture options to meet your specific needs:
Full Dentures
Replace all teeth in an arch with a complete removable prosthetic.
Partial Dentures
Fill gaps when some natural teeth remain, preventing shifting and restoring function.
Implant-Supported
Dentures secured by implants for superior stability and no adhesive needed.
Denture Cost and Insurance Coverage
Denture costs vary depending on the type, materials, and whether implant support is included. Most dental insurance plans provide coverage for dentures as a major restorative service. Our front office team will verify your benefits and help you understand your coverage.
We offer financing options for patients who need help managing out-of-pocket costs. Call 513-755-2118 to schedule your denture consultation at West Chester Family Dentistry.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures
The process typically takes several weeks to a few months, including impressions, try-ins, and adjustments. Immediate dentures can be placed the same day as extractions, though they may need more adjustments as your gums heal.
Yes. Modern dentures are custom-crafted with high-quality materials that closely resemble natural teeth and gum tissue. We carefully select the size, shape, and shade of teeth to complement your facial features.
Remove and rinse dentures after eating, brush them daily with a soft brush and denture cleaner, and soak them overnight in a denture solution. Also brush your gums and any remaining teeth before reinserting dentures each morning.
It takes a little practice, but most patients adjust to eating with dentures within a few weeks. Start with soft foods cut into small pieces, and gradually reintroduce firmer foods as you gain confidence.
Dentures typically last 5 to 10 years before they need to be replaced. Changes in your jawbone and gum tissue over time can affect the fit, so regular dental visits for adjustments and relining are important.
Traditional dentures rest on your gums and are held in place by suction or adhesive. Implant-supported dentures snap onto dental implants for a more stable, secure fit that does not slip or require adhesive.
