Full & Partial Dentures in Elkhorn, NE

What Are Dentures?

Dentures are removable dental prosthetics that replace missing teeth. Today’s dentures are more comfortable, natural-looking, and functional than ever before. At Mizner Family Dental, we provide:

• Full Dentures – Replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw
• Partial Dentures – Replace several missing teeth, anchored to natural teeth
• Implant-Supported Dentures – Secured with dental implants for added stability (restored, not placed, in-house)

Each set of dentures is custom-designed to match your facial structure, gum line, and bite, helping you chew, speak, and smile with ease.

Benefits of Full & Partial Dentures

Whether you’re replacing a few teeth or an entire arch, dentures provide a reliable, budget-friendly solution with key benefits:

• Restore your ability to chew and speak comfortably
• Improve facial appearance and reduce sagging
• Prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of place
• Support self-confidence in social and professional settings
• Custom fit for comfort, function, and appearance
• Easy to maintain with proper at-home care

We understand that adjusting to dentures is a personal journey — and our team is here to guide you with patience and respect at every stage.

Full Dentures vs. Partial Dentures

Here’s a quick breakdown of how full and partial dentures differ:

Full Dentures

• Replace all upper or lower teeth
• Made of acrylic resin and shaped to rest on the gums
• Held in place by suction, adhesive, or implants
• Often used after extractions or total tooth loss

Partial Dentures

• Replace one or more missing teeth
• Attached to a metal or acrylic framework
• Held in place with clasps that anchor to remaining natural teeth
• Preserve alignment and function when some teeth remain healthy

Not sure which option is right for you? We’ll walk you through each type during your consultation and discuss long-term solutions that fit your needs.
