Gain a Complete Smile With Dentures in Waukegan

Dentures are restorations that replace an entire arch of teeth, in your lower or upper jaw, or both. Many of our patients choose dentures over other methods of teeth replacement because of their affordability and natural look. Other benefits of custom dentures include:

The ability to show a warm and genuine smile that draws others to you
More positive first impressions
Easier biting and chewing so you can enjoy your favorite foods
Long life, as your new teeth should last several years before needing replacement
A younger, healthier, and more attractive look

Your new smile is waiting for you at Greenwood Dental Care. Our office is conveniently located on Oak Grove Avenue near its intersection with North Delany Road. We're open as early as 8 a.m. and as late as 6:30 p.m.

For those without insurance, we offer a money-saving Membership Club. You pay a low monthly fee that covers the cost of exams and cleanings and offers a 15 percent discount on other services.

Fill the Gaps in Your Bite With Lifelike Dentures

The technology behind today's dentures has come a long way. If all you know about these replacement teeth is what you remember from your grandparents' old "false teeth," you'll be in for a pleasant surprise!

Custom dentures can do a lot for your smile. If you're missing most or all of your natural teeth, new dentures can give you back a beautiful smile that others will notice. Plus, you'll be able to bite and chew more easily. You won't be restricted to a diet of bland, tasteless foods.

We offer several types of dentures at Greenwood Dental Care:

Conventional Full Dentures - These dentures replace a full arch of teeth and are removed each day for cleaning.
Conventional Partial Dentures - If you have some healthy teeth remaining, this may be a good option for you.
Implant-Retained Dentures - We'll anchor your new teeth to dental implants using a system of snaps and balls. You can remove them for cleaning.
Implant-Supported Dentures - These are our most comfortable type of denture. They're secured to implants using a metal bar. You brush and floss to keep them clean, just like natural teeth.

Was my first visit to Greenwood Dental today I was very impressed with everything! As I have always been apprehensive about someone “poking “ around in my mouth, I felt very comfortable with Dr. Kurziak doing a complete examination of my teeth, along with Dawn, the hygienist!! Doctor found a couple of issues, one I had known about and the other was very similar so I made an appointment to get this resolved! Also, there is a “comfort dog” on Wednesday to help allay someone’s apprehension, and “April “ the comfort pup, jumped on my lap and she really helped me relax!! As we have two Golden Retrievers, and I love dogs, April sure made my visit a lot less stressful!!! My wife also visited Greenwood Dental today, and she was very impressed and happy with the service!! We are certainly happy and glad we chose Greenwood Dental!😁 We would both HIGHLY recommend Greenwood Dental!!

Common Questions About Dentures

Who is a good candidate for dentures?

If you're missing most or all of your teeth, dentures can be a great option. Our team will examine your mouth, review X-rays, and talk about your goals. Your dentist will help you decide whether full, partial, or implant-supported dentures best restore your smile and confidence.

What types of dentures can I get?

You'll have several options for dentures, including full dentures, partial dentures, implant-retained dentures, and implant-supported dentures. Your dentist will explain how each works and review your oral health and lifestyle. We will help you choose the style that fits your needs, budget, and expectations for appearance, stability, and long-term comfort.

How long does it take to get dentures?

The timeline to get dentures varies. We'll start with an exam, impressions, and measurements, then work closely with a lab partner to craft your custom dentures. We'll schedule fittings and adjustments along the way so your dentures feel comfortable and look natural. It may take longer if you are getting implant dentures.

Will my dentures look realistic and attractive?

Your dentures will look realistic, as they are designed to complement your facial features and skin tone. Your dentist will help select a shape and shade that look realistic, not fake. Our lab partner uses modern materials, so your new teeth will help you appear younger, healthier, and more confident.

How will dentures change my ability to eat and speak?

Dentures require a short adjustment period, but most patients quickly notice easier chewing and clearer speech compared to missing teeth. Our team will give you tips on starting with softer foods, practicing speaking at home, and returning gradually to favorites. We're here to fine-tune the fit as needed.

What’s the difference between conventional and implant-supported dentures?

Conventional dentures rest on your gums and are removed daily. Implant-supported dentures attach to dental implants placed in your jaw for superior stability and chewing power. Your dentist will review your bone health, medical history, and goals. We'll help you decide which option offers the best long-term benefits.

Can my dentures come loose or fall out?

Well-fitting dentures should stay comfortably in place. At first, you may notice minor movement as your mouth adjusts, but we'll make any needed adjustments. Implant-retained or implant-supported dentures provide even greater security. If your dentures feel loose, our team will gladly evaluate and improve the fit.

How long do dentures usually last before needing replacement?

With good care, dentures often last several years. Over time, natural changes in your gums and jaw can affect the fit. We'll monitor everything at your regular visits and let you know when a reline, adjustment, or replacement is needed. We'll help you stay comfortable and maintain a great-looking smile.
