 We
hear from a lot of denture wearers that tell us stories about having
a lot of difficulty eating the foods that they want and need
to eat, in speaking clearly, and with their appearance.To solve
these problems, Dr. Moorhead uses a more involved denture technique
called the Branching Technique. Less than 1% of
dentists in the United States use this technique because of the
great amount of training required to learn it, as well as more time
spent on working with the patient. The Branching Technique
differs from the traditional method by use of a "training denture"
to treat the inflamed gum tissue, establish the bite, develop the
aesthetics, and make an impression that perfectly fits the gums
before the final denture is made.
The "training denture" is a temporary denture that contains a
soft, conforming material inside that is worn for several weeks
while chewing food, smiling, talking etc. The impression is much
more accurate, and makes an ideal and more practical impression of
the gums and surrounding tissues. It basically provides a perfect
blueprint for your final denture.
Dr. Moorhead has had tremendous success using this method. Dr.
Moorhead spends a great deal of time as well designing the teeth for
their overall look. Dentures have to look and feel natural, they've
got to fit the gums properly, and the bite must be flawless.
The cosmetics on Dr. Moorhead’s are amazing. Patients tell us
their friends think they’ve had a smile makeover, instead of
thinking they now wear dentures.
This technique takes a bit more time to complete, but the results
are worth it. In the case of dentures, quality time means quality
comfort and natural appearance.
