I always had a gap between my top 2 front teeth. Is it possible to recreate this when I get dentures?

Teeth can be aligned as you wish in the try in sessions when they are positioned in a wax base. So, you can see how it looks woth that gap. If you like it, it can be done that way

Hello,

I understand your concern about maintaining that small gap between your front teeth in your new dentures. It is possible to adjust dentures to preserve that detail, but I recommend considering alternatives to complete dentures, as they might not be the best long-term solution.

Dental Implants or Snap-in Dentures

I suggest you look into options like dental implants or snap-in dentures. These alternatives offer several significant benefits:

Dental Implants: They are an excellent option for preserving bone and providing a more durable and functional result. Although implants can be more expensive, they are often worth it in the long run in terms of comfort and stability.

Snap-in Dentures: This option is more economical and restorative. Snap-in dentures are placed with mini implants in a single visit, and the complete process is usually finished within a week. These dentures offer a customized fit, improve functionality, and are more comfortable than traditional dentures as they do not require adhesives.

Benefits of Snap-in Dentures

Quick Process: The placement of mini implants and the prosthetic part is completed quickly, typically within a week.
Total Customization: You can choose the size, shape, and color of your new teeth, ensuring they meet your preferences.
Increased Comfort: They are less bulky and do not require adhesives, improving comfort.
Better Functionality: They offer stability, allowing you to eat and speak with confidence.
Choosing snap-in dentures or dental implants can be a more effective and comfortable long-term solution compared to complete dentures. Exploring these options will help you find the best solution for your needs and ensure a functional and aesthetically pleasing smile.

If you need more information or have questions, I’d be happy to help.
