For patients who have lost multiple or all of their teeth, Dr. Fernandez-Carol designs custom full and partial dentures that restore function, facial volume, and a natural-looking smile. Each denture is fabricated to precise measurements of your mouth, jaw, and facial structure — ensuring a fit that is stable, comfortable, and aesthetically proportionate. Dr. Fernandez-Carol also offers implant-supported overdentures for patients who want the security of a fixed foundation without the full commitment of individual implants. Whether you need a complete upper and lower set or a partial to fill specific gaps, treatment is planned with your long-term oral health in mind.

Most patients adapt to new dentures within four to eight weeks. During this period, minor soreness and increased saliva production are normal as the oral tissues adjust. Dr. Fernandez-Carol schedules follow-up adjustments during this settling-in phase to refine the fit and ensure your bite is balanced correctly.
It is generally recommended to remove dentures at night to allow the gum tissue to rest and recover from the pressure of wear during the day. Removing dentures overnight also reduces the risk of bacterial build-up and helps maintain the health of the underlying bone and soft tissue over the long term.
Dentures typically require relining every two to three years as the shape of the jawbone and gum tissue changes over time, and full replacement is usually needed every seven to ten years. Dr. Fernandez-Carol monitors the fit at each check-up and will recommend relining or replacement before discomfort or instability becomes an issue.
