Why senior dental care matters in Eastgate

Your retirement years should be filled with good meals, easy conversations and the confidence that comes from a healthy smile. Missing teeth, uncomfortable dentures and ongoing dental problems don’t have to be part of aging.

Many seniors are surprised to learn that tooth loss isn’t inevitable. With the right care, you can protect your oral health well into your 80s, 90s and beyond.

Dr. McQueen understands what seniors need from dental care today. It’s about more than replacing missing teeth. It’s about:

• Eating comfortably

• Speaking clearly

• Smiling with confidence

• Staying socially active

• Protecting overall health

When you can’t chew well, nutrition suffers. When dentures don’t fit, social situations become stressful. When dental issues go untreated because of cost concerns, they often worsen over time.

Seniors throughout Union Township, including the Ivy Pointe community, deserve care that is accessible, affordable and tailored to their needs. Whether you’re exploring dentures for the first time or replacing a set that no longer fits, Dr. McQueen and the Aspen Dental Team will help guide you without pressure and without judgment.

Affordable denture solutions

Cost is one of the biggest concerns seniors face when considering dentures. Many are on fixed incomes, and Medicare typically does not cover most dental treatments.

That’s why Aspen Dental in Eastgate offers denture solutions starting at $499³. The goal is to help you get the care you need at a price that works for your budget.

^{³Starting at price is based on a Basic single-arch denture and is available to new and existing denture wearers. Additional charges apply for relines and other required dentistry services, including extractions.}

Aspen Dental provides a range of denture options across multiple price points. The team accepts most insurance plans (Medicaid is not accepted) and 3rd-party financing is available through outside lenders so you can move forward with care on your terms.

Full vs. partial dentures: your options explained

Full dentures

Full dentures replace all the teeth in your upper or lower arch. They rest directly on the gums and upper dentures use suction, while lower dentures rely on the shape of the jawbone for stability. Basic dentures offer a practical entry point for seniors seeking an immediate, affordable option.

Partial dentures

Partial dentures fill in gaps when you still have remaining natural teeth. They attach securely using small metal clasps and help prevent shifting while restoring function.

During your consultation, Dr. McQueen will walk through your options and explain what best fits your oral health, lifestyle and budget. You’ll get clear, straightforward guidance designed to help you make the right choice at your own pace.

Same-day denture options

One advantage of choosing Aspen Dental in Eastgate is the availability of same-day dentures. Aspen Dental offers same-day dentures, often called immediate or healing dentures, which are placed right after tooth removal so you don’t have to go without a smile while your mouth heals. In many cases, extractions and a temporary denture can be completed in a single visit, allowing you to maintain your appearance and function throughout the healing process.

As your gums heal and naturally change shape, the care team will make adjustments to keep your denture fitting comfortably. For many seniors, especially those active in the community or reluctant to go without teeth, same-day dentures offer a dignified way to maintain appearance and function.

Dental implants: a long-term option for seniors

Dentures are often the most affordable choice, but dental implants offer a long-term solution that looks and functions like natural teeth. Seniors are often told they’re “too old” for implants, but age alone is rarely a barrier. Dr. McQueen evaluates every patient individually to determine candidacy.

At Aspen Dental, we offer several types of dentures:

• Full dentures

• Partial dentures

• Implant-supported dentures

Implant-supported dentures

Implant-supported dentures combine the stability of implants with the affordability of dentures. At Aspen Dental, this typically includes a Signature or Signature Elite denture designed to snap securely onto titanium implants.

Lower denture stability

A common challenge for seniors is a loose lower denture. Even two implants can make a dramatic difference, giving your denture a more secure fit while still allowing it to be removed for cleaning.

All-on-4 options

For seniors seeking a fixed, permanent approach, All-on-4 implant treatment uses four implants per arch to support a denture that stays in place. You brush and care for it like natural teeth. While the cost is higher than traditional dentures, it offers convenience and long-term confidence for those who want a secure, non-removable solution.
