Everyone wants a confident smile. So if you’ve lost one or more teeth, we know you’d prefer to do something about it. In some cases, the best option may be dentures or partial dentures. River City Family Dentistry handles partials and dentures in East Peoria IL.
If you’re missing one or just a few teeth, a partial can replace the tooth or teeth. The partial will fit in amongst your existing teeth. For a perfect fit, we take impressions and custom-make your partial.

When one or more teeth are lost, several possible solutions exist. They include implants, bridges, partials and full dentures. All of these options have their pros and cons. Much depends on your individual situation and preferences. We will help you choose the option that is best for you after a full exam and a talk with you about your needs.
When you’ve made the decision to go with this option, we make a dental impression so the resulting partial or dentures will precisely fit your mouth. It’s important that your new partial or dentures fit well so you can smile, speak and chew normally.
In addition, partials and dentures will also help keep your facial muscles from sagging.
