If you are missing several teeth or all of your teeth, dentures can bring back your smile, your confidence, and the simple pleasure of eating the foods you love. At Dental Matters in Skokie, IL, Dr. Mazher Syed and our team design comfortable, natural looking dentures that fit your mouth and your life. Whether you need full dentures, partial dentures, or a more secure implant supported option, we will help you find the right solution and guide you through every step with care.
Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and the tissue around them. They are custom made to match the shape and size of your mouth, so they look natural and help you speak and chew with ease.
Modern dentures are more comfortable and life-like than ever, and our team takes the time to get the fit just right. Many patients searching for dentures near me are surprised at how natural today’s dentures can look and feel. Beyond restoring your smile, dentures also support your facial muscles and make everyday activities like eating and talking much easier.
Every smile is different, so our dental team may suggest several types of dentures to fit your needs and your budget:
If you have ever worried about dentures slipping or feeling loose, implant supported dentures may be the answer. Instead of resting only on the gums, these dentures attach to a few dental implants placed in the jaw.
The result is a stable, comfortable fit that lets you bite and chew naturally. Our dental team at Dental Matters has advanced training in implant dentistry, including All-on-4 treatment, so they can plan a solution that feels close to natural teeth.
For patients replacing a full arch, our full arch implant options offer an even more permanent result. During your consultation, our team will explain which approach fits your goals, your jawbone, and your budget.
Getting dentures at our Skokie office is a caring, step by step process. Here is what to expect:
Because your gums and jaw change over time, we will also help you with periodic adjustments or relines to keep your dentures fitting comfortably for years.
Taking care of your dentures is simple and keeps them looking and feeling their best. Rinse them after meals, clean them daily as our dental staff shows you, and store them properly when they are not in your mouth.
Keep up with regular dental checkups, even if you wear full dentures, so we can check the fit and the health of your gums. If your dentures ever feel loose or start to rub, let us know. A quick adjustment makes a big difference in comfort, and it is much easier than living with a denture that does not fit well.
The cost depends on the type of denture you choose, such as full, partial, or implant supported. Our team will give you a clear estimate at your consultation. Many dental plans cover part of the cost of dentures, and our team will check your benefits and review payment options with you.
Full dentures replace all the teeth in an arch, partial dentures replace several missing teeth while your natural teeth remain, and immediate dentures are placed the same day your teeth are removed so you are never without a smile while you heal.
Yes. Implant supported dentures snap onto dental implants for a much more stable fit than traditional dentures. This is a great option if you find that removable dentures slip when you eat or speak.
With good care, dentures often last several years. Because your gums and bone change over time, your dentures may need periodic relines or adjustments to keep the fit comfortable, which we handle right here in the office.
Yes. Our team designs your dentures to look natural, choosing a tooth shape, size, and shade that suits your face and smile. The goal is a comfortable fit and a smile that looks like your own.
Getting dentures should not be painful. If any teeth need to be removed first, the area is fully numbed. It is normal to have a short adjustment period with new dentures, and we are always here to fine tune the fit for your comfort.
You do not have to live with missing teeth or dentures that do not fit. With the right dentures, you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.
