Dentures at ER Dental:

Introducing digital dentures

Say goodbye to messy impressions and long wait times. ER Dental is proud to offer Digital Dentures—a revolutionary advancement in denture fabrication using 3D scanning and printing technology powered by the Dentsply Primeprint system.

Types of Dentures We Offer

1. Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are an excellent option if you are missing some teeth but still have healthy natural teeth remaining. These dentures fill the gaps, prevent other teeth from shifting, and restore your ability to chew and speak properly.

At ER Dental, we offer a variety of materials to suit your needs:

Full Acrylic Partial Dentures: Affordable and lightweight, ideal for temporary or permanent use.
Chrome Cobalt Partial Dentures: Durable and comfortable, featuring a metal framework for better strength and stability.
Valplast Flexible Partial Dentures: Made from a flexible material that offers a discreet, metal-free option for comfort and aesthetics.

Each type of partial denture is designed to fit seamlessly, restoring your smile and oral function.

2. Full Dentures

How Do Digital Dentures Work?

3D Intraoral Scan
We capture a high-resolution digital scan of your mouth—no more uncomfortable impression trays.
Digital Design
Using specialized software, we design your dentures to match your unique anatomy and aesthetic preferences.
3D Printing with Primeprint
Your dentures are printed using the Dentsply Primeprint, a medical-grade 3D printer that ensures exceptional accuracy, fit, and finish.
Final Fit & Polish
After printing, the dentures are polished and adjusted for a perfect fit—often in fewer visits than traditional methods.

3. Implant-Supported Dentures ("All-on-4" or "All-on-X")

For patients looking for a more secure and permanent solution, implant-supported dentures are a game-changer. The “All-on-4” technique, also known as “All-on-X,” involves placing four or more implants into the jawbone to anchor a full arch of teeth.

Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures:

Exceptional stability, no slipping or moving.
Improved chewing and speaking abilities.
Helps preserve jawbone structure and prevent bone loss.
A more natural look and feel compared to traditional dentures.

At ER Dental, we use advanced 3D imaging and planning to ensure precise implant placement for optimal results. This modern solution is ideal for patients seeking the ultimate in comfort and functionality.
