Our dentist usually starts by taking a few X-rays to understand the underlying bone structure and potential problems. Then, they will thoroughly examine the teeth, gums, and mouth to determine the best course of treatment. When it comes to fitting partial dental fixtures for back teeth, we consider the number of teeth remaining, their location, and the mouth's overall health. The next step is to develop a treatment plan that meets the patient's needs and goals. This plan may include other treatments, including extractions or dental implants. Once our team finalizes the treatment plan, we will start creating the denture.

Calistoga Dental Group starts with taking impressions of your teeth following an initial checkup. Next, we use these impressions to create models of the patient's mouth to design the denture. We aim to fabricate the framework of the denture out of metal or other strong material. Once this is done, false teeth (made of porcelain or plastic) are set. After completing all the adjustments, your denture is ready to be worn!
