Dentures in Memphis, TN
Missing teeth should never keep you from enjoying your favorite foods or smiling with confidence. Modern dentures in Memphis, TN at Dr. Marrio Smiles are designed to look natural, fit comfortably, and restore your ability to eat and speak with ease. Whether you need to replace all of your teeth or just a few, our team creates custom solutions that feel like your own.
Types of Dentures We Offer
Full Dentures
Full dentures replace an entire arch of teeth, upper, lower, or both. They rest on your gums and are held in place by natural suction and, if needed, denture adhesive. Today’s full dentures are crafted from advanced materials that closely mimic the appearance of natural teeth and gum tissue.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are ideal when you still have some healthy natural teeth. A removable framework holds replacement teeth that fill in the gaps while clasps attach to your existing teeth for stability.
Implant-Supported Dentures
For patients who want the security of a fixed restoration, implant-supported dentures snap onto dental implants for a stable, non-slip fit. This option eliminates the need for adhesives and provides a more natural chewing experience.
The Denture Process
Creating your custom dentures begins with a comprehensive evaluation. Dr. Thomas takes precise impressions of your mouth, selects tooth shades and shapes that complement your facial features, and works with a dental laboratory to fabricate your prosthesis. Several try-in appointments ensure the fit, bite, and appearance are exactly right before the final denture is delivered.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dentures
If you are missing several or all of your teeth and it affects your ability to eat, speak, or smile confidently, dentures may be a great solution. Dr. Thomas will evaluate your oral health and discuss all your replacement options.
It typically takes a few weeks to adjust to new dentures. You may experience minor soreness or difficulty speaking at first, but these issues resolve as your mouth adapts. We schedule follow-up visits to ensure a comfortable fit.
Remove and rinse your dentures after eating. Brush them daily with a soft brush and denture cleaner. Soak them overnight in a denture solution. Continue brushing your gums and any remaining natural teeth.
Full dentures replace all teeth in an arch, while partial dentures replace several missing teeth when some natural teeth remain. Dr. Thomas will recommend the best option based on your specific situation.
