Welcoming New Patients & Emergencies!
A custom, comfortable fit for a complete, confident smile.
Missing several teeth, or all of your teeth, can affect the way you eat, speak, and feel about your smile. At Anderson Dental Group in Payson, AZ, we design custom dentures and partial dentures to restore both function and appearance, giving you a comfortable, natural-looking way to smile with confidence again.
Whether you need a full denture to replace an entire arch of teeth or a partial denture to fill in a few gaps, we take the time to fit each appliance to your unique mouth. A well-fitted denture should feel secure, look natural, and allow you to eat and speak without constant adjustment or discomfort.

Why Choose Dentures or Partials
Dentures and partials remain one of the most reliable ways to replace missing teeth, offering benefits such as:
- Restored ability to chew a wider variety of foods
- Improved speech clarity when several teeth are missing
- Support for facial structure, helping prevent the sunken appearance that can come with tooth loss
- A removable option that does not require surgery
- Custom shading and shaping designed to look natural alongside your remaining teeth, if any
Are Dentures or Partials Right for You?
The right option depends on how many teeth you are missing and the health of your remaining teeth and gums. A full denture is typically recommended for patients missing all of their upper or lower teeth, while a partial denture works well for patients who still have healthy teeth remaining and simply need to fill in the gaps. Patients with certain jawbone or gum conditions may benefit from having those issues addressed before a denture is fitted. During a consultation, our team can evaluate your mouth and recommend whether a full denture, a partial, or another restoration, such as a dental implant, best fits your needs.
Getting Your Denture or Partial, Step by Step
Creating a well-fitted denture or partial involves several visits to ensure the final result feels comfortable and looks natural. Here is what to expect:
Initial Consultation and Impressions
We begin with an exam and take detailed impressions of your mouth to plan your custom appliance.
1
Bite Registration
We record how your upper and lower teeth come together, which helps ensure your denture fits properly and feels balanced when you bite and chew.
2
Wax Model Fitting
A wax model of your denture is tried in your mouth so we can check the fit, shape, and appearance before the final version is created.
3
Fabricating the Final Denture
Once the wax model is approved, your custom denture or partial is crafted from durable, natural-looking materials at a dental lab.
4
Final Fitting and Adjustments
At your final visit, we check the fit, comfort, and appearance of your new denture, making any adjustments needed for a secure, comfortable fit.

Benefits of Dentures and Partials
Beyond replacing missing teeth, dentures and partials offer several long-term advantages that make a real difference in daily life:
- Improved self-confidence when eating, speaking, and smiling in social settings
- A non-surgical solution that can often be completed in a shorter timeframe than implants
- The ability to add a partial denture later if you lose additional teeth down the road
- A cost-effective way to replace multiple missing teeth at once
- Better support for your jaw and facial muscles, which can help you maintain a more youthful appearance over time
