Whiten Your Smile Professionally
Missing or damaged teeth take a toll on your confidence and oral function—but we can help. Whether you need dentures or a bridge to restore your smile (or even just a single tooth), our Peppermint Dental & Orthodontics team will focus on aesthetics, fit, and comfort to provide replacements that look like your natural teeth.
We provide:
- Conventional full dentures (placed after the gum tissue has healed)
- Immediate full dentures (placed right away but adjusted over time to provide the best fit)
- Partial dentures or bridges (attached to natural teeth to fill in small gaps)
Call to schedule an assessment so you can get back to smiling without reservation.
At Peppermint Dental & Orthodontics, we believe that no one should have to live with decreased oral function or confidence. We want to help you rediscover the joy of a happy, healthy smile, and enjoy the foods you love with the help of dentures or a bridge.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable appliances that are custom-made to fit comfortably on the gums. They have artificial teeth that look natural and are supported by a base. Dentures are a budget-friendly option for replacing missing teeth and can be used to replace a few or all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaws. Unlike fixed solutions like bridgework and dental implants, dentures can be easily taken out for cleaning and maintaining oral health. They can also be removed while sleeping for added comfort.
Bridges
There are two main types of whitening products: those containing peroxide-based bleaching agents and whitening toothpastes. In the peroxide-based category, most systems use either carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide as the main ingredient. The concentration of these ingredients is important in determining how strong, effective, and safe the whitening system is. These systems work by causing a chemical reaction between the bleaching agent and the molecules that cause discoloration, breaking down and removing stains from the teeth.
