Full, Partial & Implant Dentures in Green Hills

Dentures in Nashville, TN

Replacing Missing Teeth With a Denture That Fits Your Life

Full dentures, partial dentures, and implant-anchored options — right here in Green Hills.

Missing teeth affect far more than appearance — they change how you eat, how you speak, and how comfortable you feel around other people. Dentures remain one of the most practical and widely used ways to replace them. At Gaston and Murrell Family Dentistry, we make full dentures, partial dentures, and implant-anchored dentures for patients in Green Hills and throughout Nashville, and we help you work out which approach actually suits your mouth and your life.

Whether you are replacing a single missing tooth, a few, or a full arch, our team takes a thorough, personalized approach. Dr. Nathan Murrell and our team assess the health of your gums, remaining teeth, and jawbone, then build a treatment plan around your goals, your comfort, and your budget.

Denture Options in Green Hills

A denture is a custom-made replacement for missing teeth. Modern dentures are lighter, better fitting, and far more natural looking than the ones many people picture, and there are several designs to choose from depending on how many teeth are missing and how much stability you want. If you are still comparing your options overall, see our guide to dentures vs. dental implants in Nashville. The sections below cover the denture options available at our Green Hills office and how to get started.

Reasons patients come in to talk about dentures:

  • Several missing teeth, or a full arch that needs replacing
  • An existing denture that slips, clicks, or no longer fits
  • Difficulty chewing, or avoiding foods you used to enjoy
  • Teeth that are failing and may need extraction
  • Feeling self-conscious about gaps when speaking or smiling
  • Wanting to compare dentures with implant-anchored options

 

No referral is needed. A denture consultation at our Green Hills office includes examining your gums and any remaining teeth, checking bone levels, and reviewing your health history, so you leave knowing which denture options are realistic for you and what each one involves.

Types of Dentures We Offer

Full Dentures

A full denture replaces an entire arch of upper or lower teeth. It rests on the gums and is removed for cleaning. Full dentures are the most established way to restore chewing and speech after total tooth loss, and they involve no surgery. We take detailed impressions and work with you through fittings and adjustments so the finished denture sits as comfortably and looks as natural as possible.

Partial Dentures

A partial denture fills the gaps when you still have healthy natural teeth. It clasps onto the remaining teeth to stay in place and keeps them from drifting into the empty spaces over time. Partials are a good fit for patients who are missing several teeth but are not ready for, or do not need, a full arch replacement.

Immediate (Same-Day) Dentures

An immediate denture is made in advance and placed the same day your teeth are extracted, so you are not left without teeth while your gums heal. Because the gums change shape as they heal, an immediate denture usually needs relining or replacing later. We explain that timeline up front so there are no surprises.

Denture Repairs, Relines, and Replacements

Dentures need care over time. Jawbone and gum tissue change shape, and a denture that fit well a few years ago may loosen, rub, or crack. We repair damaged dentures, reline them for a closer fit, and make replacements when a denture has reached the end of its useful life. If your current denture is uncomfortable, it is worth having it looked at rather than living with it.

Implant-Supported Dentures

If a removable denture is not the right answer for you, an implant-anchored option may be. Instead of resting on the gums, the denture attaches to dental implants placed in the jaw, which holds it firmly in position. Many patients find this eliminates the slipping and adhesive that frustrate them about conventional dentures. Options range from snap-in dentures that still come out for cleaning to fixed dentures that stay in place permanently.

For patients replacing a full arch who want teeth that never come out, we also offer fixed implant dentures in Nashville — our Teeth in a Day approach, which anchors a full set of permanent teeth on as few as four implants, often in a single appointment.

 

Who Might Be a Good Candidate for Dentures?

You do not need a referral to schedule a denture consultation at our Green Hills office. We welcome patients who:

  • Are missing one or more teeth and want to discuss replacing them
  • Currently wear a denture that is loose, worn, or uncomfortable
  • Have been told they need extractions and want a plan for afterward
  • Are comparing dentures, implants, and implant-anchored options
  • Want to understand what dentures cost before committing
  • Are a senior or caring for an elderly family member with dental needs
  • Want a second opinion on a denture treatment plan

 

We see patients of all ages and accept new patients. If you are unsure which option suits you, a consultation is always a good starting point. Candidacy depends on your gum health, bone levels, and remaining teeth, so an in-person exam is the only way to know for certain.

Why Choose Gaston and Murrell Family Dentistry for Dentures?

And we work with you to develop a treatment plan that is realistic for your schedule, your budget, and your goals.

We also offer in-house membership plans for patients without dental insurance, making it easier to understand your costs and move forward with confidence.
