Dentures in Dallas, TX
Removable dental replacements, or dentures, are one of the most common services we provide at Bluffview Dental. Dr. Banks has more than 30 years of experience crafting both complete dentures, for when all teeth are missing, and partial dentures, for when some teeth are missing. Dentures allow patients to use their mouths more normally again, just as they did before losing their teeth.
Request an AppointmentTypes of Dentures We Offer
- Complete dentures replace all of the teeth in the upper or lower arch.
- Partial dentures fill gaps between healthy natural teeth and help prevent them from shifting.
- Conventional dentures are made after the teeth have been removed and the gums have healed, and they are typically placed 8 to 12 weeks after removal.
- Immediate dentures are made in advance and can be placed as soon as the teeth are removed, so you are never without teeth during healing.
- Implant-supported dentures, including the ATLANTIS Conus concept, use dental implants to hold dentures firmly in place.
Benefits of Dentures
Patients may need dentures for a variety of reasons, including decay, gum disease, or injury. Dentures can solve a wide range of problems for patients who have lost their teeth. They restore your ability to chew a wider variety of foods, help you speak more clearly, support your facial muscles to prevent a sunken appearance, and give you a full, confident smile.
The Denture Process at Bluffview Dental
Your care begins with a consultation and exam, including a panoramic x-ray, so Dr. Banks can evaluate your gums, bone, and any remaining teeth. Impressions and measurements are then used to design dentures that fit your mouth and complement your facial features. We will communicate with you throughout the process and make adjustments to ensure your dentures are comfortable and function well.
Because our office has an in-house dental laboratory, we can also handle relines and denture repairs quickly, often in about an hour. See real results on our Denture Repair Cases page, and learn how everyday people enjoy their new smiles on our Real Life With Dentures page.

Denture FAQs
What is the difference between conventional and immediate dentures?
Conventional dentures are placed 8 to 12 weeks after teeth are removed and the gums heal, while immediate dentures are made in advance and placed the same day teeth are removed.
How long do dentures last?
Dentures typically last several years with proper care, though relines are often needed as your gums and jawbone change.
Will dentures change the way I talk?
You may notice small changes at first, but most patients speak normally after a short adjustment period.
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
It is generally recommended to remove dentures at night to let your gums rest and to keep your mouth healthy.
Can dentures be repaired if they break?
Yes. Our in-house lab allows many denture repairs to be completed in about an hour.
