Chewing Function
A well-fitted set puts real chewing surfaces back in your mouth, which slowly returns the foods you quietly dropped from your rotation years ago.
What have you stopped ordering at dinner? Missing teeth quietly shrink the menu, and dentures in Carmichael, CA, are built to hand that back to you. Marconi Dental Group designs each set around your bite, your face, and how you want to look.
Dentures are custom prosthetics that replace missing teeth, either as a full set for an entire arch or as a partial that fills the gaps around the teeth you still have. Dr. Dylan Kovar handles this work as part of his prosthodontic focus, including implant-supported options for patients who want more stability. Dr. Werner Visagé evaluates the gum and bone health that any denture ultimately has to rest on.
A well-fitted set puts real chewing surfaces back in your mouth, which slowly returns the foods you quietly dropped from your rotation years ago.
Teeth hold up the lips and cheeks, and replacing them restores the facial contours that tend to fall inward after an arch has been empty a while.
Missing teeth blur specific consonants, and a properly shaped denture gives your tongue the surfaces it needs to form those sounds cleanly again.
Tooth shape, shade, and position are all chosen with your face in mind, so the finished set looks like teeth rather than like a stock appliance.
From your first exam to the final result, here's exactly what to expect — calm, clear, and never rushed.
Schedule AppointmentDr. Kovar examines your remaining teeth, gums, and bone, then walks through full, partial, and implant-supported options with their tradeoffs.
An iTero scan and clinical records capture your arches and your bite precisely, giving the lab the detail it needs to build a well-fitting set.
You try a preview version before anything is finalized, checking tooth position, shade, and fit so that changes happen while they are still easy.
Your finished denture is seated, the bite is balanced, and any pressure points are relieved well before you walk out of the office wearing it.
Gums settle over the first few weeks, so follow-up visits are scheduled to refine the fit rather than leaving you to manage sore spots alone.
Several Missing — You have lost enough teeth that chewing has become a planning exercise, and the ones remaining are carrying far more work than they ever should.
Failing Teeth — Gum disease or extensive decay has left several teeth loose or unrestorable, and replacing them together tends to produce a much better result.
Chewing Difficulty — Meals take longer, certain foods are off the table entirely, and you find yourself choosing softer options without ever really deciding to.
Aging Denture — An older set has grown loose, sore, or worn flat, which happens naturally as the ridge underneath it changes shape over the course of years.
Dr. Kovar’s focus covers full-arch prosthetics and bite reconstruction, so complex denture cases stay here instead of heading to a specialist.
You see and approve the tooth position and the shade at a preview stage, which is the point where adjustments cost nothing but a little time.
Implants can anchor a denture so that it stops moving while you eat, and that option is discussed openly rather than presented as an upsell.
Follow-up appointments continue until the fit is genuinely right, because a denture that almost fits is one that ends up sitting in a drawer.
Real patients of Marconi Dental Group share their experience — from first visits to life-changing smile transformations.

Getting dentures is a process, not a single appointment. We tell you what that process actually looks like before you commit to any of it.

Most cases run several weeks from the first records to the final fit, since the lab work and the try-in stage both take time to do properly. Cases involving extractions take longer, because the gums need to heal before a final set can be made.
Certain sounds feel unfamiliar for the first week or two while your tongue adapts to the new surfaces. Reading out loud at home speeds that adjustment considerably, and most patients stop noticing it well within the first month.
A full denture replaces every tooth in an arch and rests on the gum ridge underneath. A partial fills in around the teeth you still have, clasping onto them for support and helping keep them from drifting into the open spaces.
Cost depends on whether you need a full or partial set, the materials involved, and whether implants are part of the plan, so our front desk gives you a written figure first. Cherry, CareCredit, and in-house financing are all available for treatment of this size.
Most PPO plans treat dentures as major restorative work and cover a portion of the fee, usually within your annual maximum and after any waiting period. We accept all major providers, work with out-of-network plans, and verify your benefits before treatment begins.
The first appointment is a conversation, not a commitment. Book online for dentures in Carmichael, CA, and we will lay out every option along with what each one involves.
