What Types of Dentures Are Available at West Wind Dental?

In this video, Dr. Robert Ellis explains how his practice approaches dentures and implant-supported solutions, including unique local options and key steps taken to ensure durability and long-term success.

In Idaho, we have something unique: licensed denturists who are trained by the state to fabricate dentures. They often provide very economical options, and I work closely with one in Idaho Falls who makes affordable dentures, especially for Medicaid patients. Many times, we can use these dentures as a temporary solution, or even retrofit them into a longer-term denture if they’re strong enough to handle the added function of implants.

In our office, whenever we create a new implant-supported denture, we always include a metal mesh reinforcement. This prevents fractures and ensures your denture can withstand the much greater chewing power you’ll gain with implant support.

If you or someone you love is struggling with missing teeth or loose dentures, contact Dr. Robert Ellis in Rigby, ID, for a free consultation to learn how our life-changing treatments can enhance your smile, improve your function, and restore your self-confidence.
