If you are ready for dentures, your dentist will begin by ensuring your overall mouth is in good condition. Remaining teeth may need to be removed if they aren’t in good enough shape to leave in place. Then, we’ll need to take digital scans to capture impressions of your teeth. This information allows our trusted dental lab to create your dentures. Our team will walk you through the entire process. You’ll feel comfortable the whole way.
Your dentures options include:
Partial Dentures – If you have some healthy teeth remaining, you may be a good fit for partial dentures. This removable appliance snaps into place and fills the gap in your smile.
Full Dentures – You can replace an entire arch of teeth with full-arch dentures. These are customized to look natural in your mouth. You take them out at night to give your gums a break. They stay in place with suction and adhesive.
Implant Dentures – Secure your dentures to implants for more lifelike function. You no longer have to use adhesive to keep your teeth in place. Your jaw also stays healthier because implants stimulate the bone the same way that natural tooth roots do.
If you opt for implants, you may need a procedure to prepare your jaw. Bone grafts rebuild the bone lost in your jaw. If you have more extensive bone loss, a ridge augmentation can reshape your jaw and gums to prepare for the placement of implants. Your dentist will discuss any necessary steps.

Visited just a few days ago to launch an Implant, and benefitted from a concise, yet thorough, explanation of what the process involves from Dr. Irvine’s personable and clearly competent Assistant, Jackie.
I am impressed by the innovative utilization of technology and engineering in the preparation for, construction of and manner of firmly securing the implant. The amount of thought, time and planning involved in this important procedure, plus the obvious skill and caring of Dr. Irvine and her Team have, once again, occasioned my “Thank You” to the source of my initial referral to the practice!
Highly recommend Providence Dentistry. They are not aggressive with treatment plans and clearly explain all treatments. Everyone is cheerful and kind from the moment you walk in the door until throughout the appt.

Trusted Providence Dentistry for over 4 years and have the utmost confidence in their professionalism and competence. Today Dr. Huh, And my hygienist , as well as front office staff delivered stellar care. We followed Dr. Irvine from Waxhaw and are glad we did!
I don’t mind having a temporary crown, in fact that’s what I’m used too; and then getting regular crown later. Now a days crowns are done in the office with new technology, but with the new software I think Dr Irwin did the best she could. I’m glad if she wasn’t satisfied she wasn’t going to make it work. I’m OK waiting for new crown to be fixed off site. But; it was a long 3 hours with the whole ordeal. Mouth is sore; but I’m fine. I would recommend Providence Dentistry to my friends. Thanks
We completed the crown today and it went well; with little or no problems. I feel good so far and Dr. Irwin did a good job. Tay her dental assistant also did a good job. I have a cleaning coming up on Nov1st. LETS DO IT!!!!
My cleaning on the 9th was great with Emily. She does a great job!!!
12-3-24 I had a cleaning today with Emily and she was great. She is really the only one that cleans my teeth and I’m very satisfied with her expertise. She is also very personal and a nice person.
4/11/24 Had cleaning today and Emily was fantastic. She is personable, professional and kind. She knows her patients and remembers things about them, which always makes me feel good. I would recommend her to anyone, thanks Emily!!!
Thank you, once again, Dr. Irvine and dental hygienist Emily for your wonderful care! I always have the BEST EXPERIENCE at Providence Dentistry!

She really cares about her patients and always deliver the best care ever!! Today was no different! In addition, the front office personnel are all so kind, friendly and patient focused. Thank you to all!

Common Questions About Dentures
Who might need dentures?
Dentures can replace either a few missing teeth or all your teeth, depending on your situation. We offer dentures in several styles to accommodate just about every patient. You can get partial or full conventional dentures that remove easily for cleaning, or you can stabilize your dentures with a set of dental implants for superior comfort and performance.
How long does it take to make dentures?
In general, most patients can expect their new dentures to be made in about one to two weeks. Some cases may take a little longer, and some a little shorter. You will then try them on to make sure they fit, and we’ll make any needed adjustments if they don’t. We can provide you with temporary dentures to wear while your final restorations are being made. That way, you don’t ever have to be without your teeth again.
How much do dentures cost?
Dentures can vary widely in cost, depending on the style you choose and your individual circumstances. We would need to examine you and develop some treatment options before we could give you an accurate estimate. We do offer third-party financing through CareCredit to make your dentures more accessible.
