At New Smile Dentures in Boise, Idaho, our primary goal has always been providing dentures of superior comfort, stability, aesthetics, and affordability. After thorough consideration and extensive patient feedback, we've chosen to phase out digital dentures and return our complete focus to conventional dentures. This shift aligns with our commitment to delivering the best possible patient experience and clinical outcomes.
Why conventional dentures provide a superior patient experience?
Enhanced patient satisfaction and comfort.
One of the most compelling reasons for our return to conventional dentures is patient satisfaction. Patients consistently express greater overall comfort and satisfaction with traditionally crafted dentures. These dentures, meticulously adjusted by skilled technicians, allow for a more precise fit, significantly improving speech clarity, comfort, and ease of daily use. The ability to fine-tune dentures manually results in reduced discomfort, fewer sore spots, and enhanced patient confidence.
Simplified maintenance and cleaning
Patients find conventional dentures easier to clean and maintain due to their proven design and familiar materials, such as acrylic resin or porcelain. Simple cleaning routines contribute to better overall oral hygiene and denture longevity. Our patients consistently highlight the straightforward maintenance of traditional dentures as a significant factor in their ongoing comfort and satisfaction.
Superior stability and retention.
Exceptional peripheral seal
Conventional dentures excel due to their superior peripheral seal, which ensures optimal suction between the denture base and oral tissues. This precise fitting significantly reduces movement and slippage during normal activities like speaking and eating. Patients report feeling more secure and confident throughout their daily routines, greatly enhancing their quality of life.
Reliable bite alignment
Accurate occlusal contacts in conventional dentures ensure balanced bite forces. This alignment not only improves overall denture stability but also reduces wear and tear on both the dentures and supporting oral tissues, preserving oral health over the long term.
Exceptional customization and personalization.
Flexible manual adjustments
A standout feature of conventional dentures is their flexibility for detailed manual adjustments. Our expert team at New Smile Dentures can meticulously tailor tooth positioning, angles, and aesthetics, ensuring each patient receives a uniquely personalized and natural appearance. These manual adjustments are particularly beneficial in the anterior (front) teeth area, critical for achieving a realistic and aesthetically pleasing smile.
Optimal facial harmony
Conventional dentures enable superior alignment with each patient’s individual facial structures, creating optimal facial harmony. Our technicians take the time necessary to achieve perfect aesthetic integration, resulting in dentures that not only function excellently but also enhance facial appearance.
Proven durability and longevity
Reliable long-term performance
Conventional dentures possess a long-established record of durability and dependability. Typically crafted from durable acrylic resin or porcelain, they routinely last five to seven years, and often longer, with proper care. Our patients appreciate the peace of mind and long-term reliability offered by these traditional materials.
Resistance to wear and tear
Traditional denture materials are highly resistant to common damage such as chipping, cracking, or discoloration. This robust construction ensures that conventional dentures retain their aesthetic appeal and functionality over many years, providing lasting value for our patients.
Cost-effectiveness of conventional dentures.
Lower initial investment
Affordability remains a critical advantage of conventional dentures, which generally cost significantly less upfront compared to digital dentures. With prices typically ranging between $1,000 to $2,500 per arch, traditional dentures offer a cost-effective solution without compromising on quality or aesthetics.
Affordable long-term maintenance
Another financial benefit of conventional dentures lies in their lower ongoing maintenance costs. Repairs and adjustments can be easily managed either chairside or in a dental lab, reducing both downtime and expenses. This simplicity means patients can maintain optimal comfort and functionality affordably over time.
Clinical advantages for dental professionals.
Familiar and proven procedures
Conventional denture fabrication methods are well-established, widely understood, and extensively practiced. Our dentists at New Smile Dentures have deep expertise and familiarity with these methods, ensuring predictable outcomes and high-quality care. This familiarity significantly reduces any learning curve, enabling us to focus more effectively on each patient’s specific needs.
Efficient repairs and adjustments
Conventional dentures offer the substantial advantage of easy and rapid repairs or adjustments. Unlike digital dentures, which frequently require additional scanning and manufacturing processes, traditional dentures can often be fixed chairside, providing quicker resolutions to common issues such as minor discomfort or changes in oral structure.
Limitations of digital dentures
Despite their technological sophistication, digital dentures presented several consistent limitations that influenced our decision to transition fully back to conventional methods.
Stability and retention issues
Digital dentures often struggle with creating an adequate peripheral seal. This compromised suction significantly reduces retention, increasing the likelihood of movement and discomfort during daily activities.
Difficulty with immediate adjustments.
Another drawback is the inability to make rapid, chairside adjustments to digital dentures. Adjustments typically require additional scanning, digital modifications, and remanufacturing, causing inconvenience and extended wait times for patients.
Who benefits most from conventional dentures?
Elderly and medically compromised patients.
Individuals who require frequent denture adjustments due to changing oral tissues or medical conditions significantly benefit from conventional dentures. The ease of modification and stability ensures sustained comfort and functionality.
Cost-conscious patients
Patients who prioritize affordability find conventional dentures an ideal solution. Offering superior quality at a significantly lower initial and ongoing cost, conventional dentures remain highly attractive to budget-conscious patients.
Patients seeking high-quality aesthetic customization.
For those needing detailed and precise aesthetic adjustments, conventional dentures offer unmatched flexibility. Patients seeking a highly personalized fit and appearance benefit greatly from the manual customization capabilities of conventional methods.
