Restore Your Smile With Full, Partial, and Implant-Retained Dentures
At Appalachian Dental Care, our friendly team is here to help you smile confidently again. Whether you’ve lost a few teeth or a full arch, we offer custom dentures in Boone, North Carolina, designed to look natural, fit comfortably, and restore your ability to eat and speak with ease.
Why Choose Dentures?
Life happens — accidents, gum disease, and age can all lead to tooth loss. Dentures are a reliable and affordable way to replace missing teeth and improve your overall oral health.
Our team offers several options to suit your needs and lifestyle:
- Full Dentures for complete tooth replacement
- Partial Dentures for replacing a few missing teeth
Implant-Retained Dentures for a secure, long-lasting fit
Full vs. Partial Dentures
Full Dentures
Full dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth — either upper, lower, or both. These dentures are crafted from gum-colored material that fits snugly over your gums and provides a natural-looking smile.
Partial Dentures
If you still have some healthy teeth remaining, partial dentures may be the best option. These fill in gaps where teeth are missing and are held in place with discreet clasps that attach to your natural teeth. Both full and partial dentures are removable for easy cleaning and care.
Temporary Dentures — Smile While You Wait
We understand that no one wants to go without teeth while waiting for their custom dentures to be made. That’s why our office offers temporary (immediate) dentures so you can leave your visit with a complete smile while your final dentures are being crafted.
Temporary dentures restore your appearance and function until your permanent set is ready.
Do Dentures Ever Fall Out?
Today’s dentures are designed to fit securely and comfortably. With proper care, they should stay in place throughout the day. However, if you experience movement or looseness, our team can provide advanced solutions:
- Implant-Retained Dentures: Use small dental implants to anchor the dentures with a ball-and-socket attachment system. They can still be removed for cleaning but offer a much more stable fit.
Implant-Supported Dentures: Attached permanently using a secure bar system for the ultimate comfort and confidence — they look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Can I Get Same-Day Dentures?
In many cases, yes! Our office offers same-day dentures so you don’t have to wait to restore your smile. After your consultation, our dentist will discuss whether you’re a good candidate for same-day dentures based on your oral health and treatment goals.
Some treatments, such as implant-retained dentures, may require a short healing period before placement.
Caring for Your Dentures
To keep your dentures clean and long-lasting:
- Rinse and brush them daily using a soft denture brush
- Soak them overnight in a denture-cleaning solution
- Handle them gently to avoid bending or breaking
- Continue regular dental checkups to ensure a healthy mouth and proper fit

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dentures last?
With proper care, most dentures last between 5–10 years. Over time, natural changes in your gums and bone structure may require adjustments or replacement.
Can I sleep in my dentures?
It’s best to remove your dentures at night to allow your gums to rest and to keep them clean and bacteria-free.
How much do dentures cost?
The cost of dentures varies depending on the type (full, partial, or implant-supported) and materials used. Our team will provide a personalized estimate and review your insurance and payment options.
Are implant dentures permanent?
Implant-supported dentures can be permanent or removable, depending on the design. Both options provide greater stability than traditional dentures.
What’s the difference between dentures and dental implants?
Dental implants replace individual teeth with titanium posts and crowns, while dentures replace multiple teeth using a removable or implant-secured appliance. Some patients combine the two with implant-retained dentures for the best of both worlds.
