Dentures at Serenity Smilesin Miramar Beach & Destin, FL
Whether you're missing several teeth or an entire arch, dentures offer a reliable and cost-effective way to restore your smile, speech, and confidence. At Serenity Smiles, we design custom dentures that look natural, feel comfortable, and fit your unique lifestyle and oral health needs.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They can restore your ability to chew and speak properly, prevent facial sagging, and give you a smile you can feel confident sharing.
Depending on your needs, we offer full dentures, partial dentures, and implant-supported options to provide the best fit and stability for your situation.
Types of Dentures We Offer
1. Complete Dentures
Designed for patients who are missing all teeth in the upper or lower jaw.
- Immediate Dentures: Placed the same day as your extractions, so you never go without teeth during healing. Some adjustments will be needed over time.
- Conventional Dentures: Fabricated after your gums and bone have fully healed, usually 4–6 months post-extraction. Created over multiple appointments for optimal fit and function.
2. Partial Dentures
Used when some natural teeth remain.
- Custom-designed to fill in gaps with artificial teeth
- Secured using clasps or precision attachments connected to remaining teeth
- Helps prevent surrounding teeth from shifting and restores chewing function
3. Implant-Supported Dentures
A premium option for greater stability and long-term bone health.
- Anchored to dental implants placed in the jaw
- Prevent slipping or clicking when eating or speaking
- Preserve bone by stimulating jaw tissue
- Can be removable or fixed, depending on the number of implants placed

What to Expect During the Denture Process
Step 1: Consultation & Impressions
We begin with a thorough exam and discuss your needs, lifestyle, and goals. We take detailed impressions of your mouth to begin the design process.
Step 2: Fitting & Adjustments
Your custom denture is fabricated in a trusted dental lab. We'll ensure a proper fit and adjust for function, bite alignment, and comfort.
Step 3: Follow-Up Care
We’ll check how well your denture is fitting once you’ve worn it for a few days and make further adjustments as needed.
If you’re receiving an implant-supported denture, we’ll coordinate the placement of implants and ensure proper healing before attaching your final denture.
Caring for Your Dentures
Daily care is essential for keeping your denture clean and your mouth healthy.
- Remove and rinse after meals to prevent debris buildup
- Brush daily with a soft denture brush
- Soak overnight in a denture-cleaning solution (or water if implant-supported)
- Avoid using hot water, which can warp the material
- Visit us regularly for checkups, relines, or repairs
Never attempt to adjust or repair your denture yourself—this can cause permanent damage and discomfort.
Should I Consider Implant-Supported Dentures?
If you want more stability than traditional removable dentures provide, implant-supported dentures may be right for you. They're a great choice for patients seeking:
- More secure fit without adhesives
- Better chewing ability
- Improved speech clarity
- Reduced bone loss and facial changes
You can learn more about your candidacy by visiting our Dental Implants page or scheduling a consultation.

FAQs About Dentures
How long do dentures last?
With proper care, most dentures last 5–8 years. Over time, they may need to be relined or replaced due to natural changes in your jaw.
Will my dentures look natural?
Yes! Your denture will be custom-designed to match your facial structure, bite, and natural teeth for the most realistic appearance possible.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
You may need a short adjustment period, but most patients return to eating a wide range of foods with practice and proper fit.
What’s the difference between a partial and a full denture?
Full dentures replace all teeth in an arch, while partials only replace some and use remaining teeth for support.
Are implant-supported dentures worth it?
For many patients, yes—especially if you want more security, better function, and improved bone preservation.
