Dentures
Have you been living with severely decayed, broken, or missing teeth? A healthy, functional smile can be yours again.
Dental Group South, Inc. features three different denture options to choose from, making it easy to customize treatment to fit your needs.
To learn more about care and candidacy, visit Dr. Vernon Greene and our welcoming Stockbridge, GA, team for a consultation.
Understanding Traditional Dentures
Our dentist, Dr. Vernon Greene, offers two types of traditional dentures to restore your smile after tooth loss. Patients can choose between these versions:
Many dental patients are surprised to learn that you don't need to be missing all of your teeth to qualify for dentures. Partial dentures are a great option for those who have lost too many teeth for a single dental bridge, but not enough for a full set of dentures.
Also known as full dentures, complete dentures are just what their name suggests. They're a set of dentures that can replace your entire set of teeth, or just a full top or bottom set. Just like partial dentures, full dentures are completely removable, allowing you to easily clean them after wearing.
Wish There Were a Different Option? There Is: Implant-Supported Dentures
When you work with our office, you can also receive a more permanent version of dentures. Our dentist can coordinate with a trusted Stockbridge-area oral surgeon to place dental implants, which act as artificial tooth roots.
Dental implants serve as a stable base for dentures that you don't have to remove. Implants can easily support partial or complete dentures for long-term, worry-free wear.
They have plenty of other benefits too, including a more discreet appearance and improved bone health. Our dentist can guide you through every aspect of the process during your visit.
Why Are Implant-Supported Dentures So Secure? Learn About the Osseointegration Process
Implant-supported dentures function just like your natural teeth because implants are designed to replace your tooth roots. They fuse with your jaw over the course of several months in a process called osseointegration. Though an implant-supported denture will eventually need to be replaced, the implants themselves can remain in place for a lifetime.

When you visit our Stockbridge, GA, office, Dr. Greene will happily explain your options in detail. If you want to get a head start, though, we'll walk you through the
advantages of each right now:
Traditional Dentures Are Best for:
More Affordable Treatment
For patients wanting a more budget-friendly option, traditional removable dentures can restore function and beauty to their smiles. We also accept financing to make paying for your treatment a little easier.
Receiving Quicker Results
Don't want to wait months for your dental implants to fuse and be ready to support your permanent denture? The traditional partial and full denture process can be completed much quicker than the implant process.
Less Invasive Care
Many of our Stockbridge patients come to us with fear of surgical treatment. While sedation dentistry works wonders, if you want to avoid implant placement or supplementary bone grafting, traditional dentures require less invasive treatment.
Implant-Supported Dentures Are Best for:
Protecting Your Facial Structure
Did you know that losing teeth directly affects your facial structure? It leads to jawbone recession, which can cause a sunken appearance. With implants, this process is completely preventable. Implants even stimulate your jawbone and encourage bone replenishment.
Preserving Your Oral Health
Our Stockbridge, GA, team is dedicated to finding a solution that's best for your oral health. Implants encourage improved bone health and gum health. They also can help your overall health by allowing you to enjoy a more diverse diet.
The Most Impactful Results
Thanks to implants, your dentures will remain firmly in place for years. This security makes it much easier to chew and talk with comfort and ease. The confidence provided by implant-supported dentures can be truly life-changing.
Not Ready for Dentures Yet? These Dental Procedures Can Prepare You
Patients with insufficient bone and periodontal disease may not be eligible for implant-supported dentures at the moment, but with care, they can become candidates.
Often, denture patients will come to us with a broken tooth or teeth or a decayed tooth or teeth. Like with dental implant placement, we will refer out to a local oral surgeon for extractions. Once the treatment is finished and your mouth has healed, our dentist can proceed with your treatment.
While dental implants encourage bone stimulation and growth, you'll need a certain amount of bone tissue to be eligible for implant-supported dentures. Our team can refer you out to a trusted oral surgeon for bone grafting, which can make you a candidate for dental implant-supported dentures once you've healed.

If I could give 10 stars I would! This Dental office is like no other I have been to. I wanted a more personal experience and not only did I get that but also the most relaxed, peaceful atmosphere. It was old fashion customer service with modern up-to-date technology and equipment. Every one in this office (from the hygienist...to the receptionist and Dr. Greene the dentist) makes you feel like they really care and enjoy what they do. This place is simply amazing and I will be a patient forever! No crowded waiting room with long wait periods. Love, love, love this place!!! I can actually and honestly say I look forward to going to the dentist!

First, let me say that I have been a patient of Dr. Greene for over 20 years. Dr. Greene and his staff have always made me feel at ease and comfortable. I trust his opinion because he has always been very honest and upfront about my dental health. A little over three years ago when I elected to have a dental implant put in. Dr. Greene and his staff helped me navigate the process from the costs to the actual implant installation. I couldn't be more satisfied. If you value honesty, integrity, and great patient care. Then Dr. Greene and Dental Group South is the place for your dental care.

Though our Stockbridge, GA, practice does not accept insurance, implants are generally not covered by insurance anyway. This decision also allows our privately owned office to invest in superior materials and technology that would not otherwise be approved by insurance.
We understand that the burden of cost can be stressful, which is why we accept financing from CareCredit®. You can secure a loan for your treatment with low or even no interest. If you want to learn more about our approach to superior dental care or if you're curious about flexible financing, we're always here to answer your questions.
