Dentures in Naples, FL
Dentures Built for Long-Term Comfort and Function
More teeth are lost every year than most people realize — and for the millions of adults dealing with significant tooth loss, the effects go well beyond appearance. Missing teeth change how you chew, how you speak, how your face looks, and how bone in the jaw is maintained over time. Dentures and overdentures restore function across all of these dimensions, and when properly fitted, they do so with a level of comfort and naturalness that older generations of prosthetics never delivered.
At Advanced Prosthodontics & Implant Esthetics, dentures are designed and placed by prosthodontists — the specialists whose training focuses entirely on replacing missing teeth. Dr. Binns and Dr. Aquino evaluate each patient’s bone structure, bite, and remaining dentition before recommending a prosthetic path. For patients who want implant stability, the practice places and restores implant-supported overdentures in-house using X-Navigation technology for guided, precise implant placement. The result is a tooth replacement system designed to hold up long-term, not just look right at delivery.
Why Choose Advanced Prosthodontics & Implant Esthetics for Dentures?
Two prosthodontists, in-house implant placement, and X-Navigation guided surgery for overdenture cases. Advanced Prosthodontics & Implant Esthetics handles the full spectrum of denture care without sending patients to separate specialists for implant placement. Overdentures are particularly well-served by this approach: the same team that places the implants designs and delivers the prosthetic, ensuring the two elements work together precisely rather than being matched after the fact. Patients also benefit from digital treatment planning before any procedure begins.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable prosthetic appliances that replace missing teeth and restore the appearance and function of a natural smile. They sit on the gum tissue and, in the case of implant-supported versions, anchor to titanium implants embedded in the jawbone. Modern dentures are substantially more refined than older generations — better-fitting, more natural-looking, and available in materials and configurations that were not possible even a decade ago. Whether you need to replace a partial section of missing teeth or a complete arch, the approach is custom to your anatomy, your bite, and your functional goals.

Benefits of Choosing Dentures
What Are Overdentures?
An overdenture is a removable prosthetic that attaches to a small number of dental implants or to existing natural tooth roots, rather than resting on the gum tissue alone. The implant attachments — typically two to four posts — provide a snap-in anchor that dramatically improves stability. Patients with overdentures eat and speak with significantly greater confidence than those with conventional removable dentures, and the bone preservation effect of the implants prevents the gradual ridge resorption that occurs when dentures are the only support. At Advanced Prosthodontics & Implant Esthetics, overdentures are an in-house procedure from placement through final delivery.
The Denture & Overdenture Process at Our Naples Practice
Your first appointment is a comprehensive evaluation — not a fitting. We assess the health of your remaining teeth and gum tissue, the bone volume available to support either a traditional denture or implants, and your bite and facial structure. From there, we take impressions and build a custom treatment plan. Traditional dentures typically require four to six weeks and multiple try-in appointments to calibrate the fit and bite before final delivery. Overdenture cases involving implant placement follow a longer timeline that accounts for the implant integration period before the final prosthetic is delivered. You will know the full sequence and timeline before any step begins.
Implant-Supported Overdentures
Implant-supported overdentures anchor to two to four titanium implants placed in the jawbone using X-Navigation guided surgery for precision placement. The overdenture snaps onto the implant attachments, eliminating the movement that makes conventional dentures difficult to wear during meals. Bone is preserved at the implant sites because the titanium post stimulates the jaw the same way a natural root does. At our Naples practice, implant placement and the overdenture prosthetic are handled by the same prosthodontic team, ensuring the two elements are designed and calibrated to work together from the start. Outcomes depend on individual bone quality, overall health, and maintenance habits.
Zirconia vs. Acrylic: Choosing the Right Denture Material
The material your denture is made from affects durability, aesthetics, weight, and how it interacts with opposing teeth over time. The two most common choices for implant-supported and conventional dentures are acrylic and zirconia.
Acrylic has been the standard denture material for decades. It is lightweight, easy to adjust and repair chairside, and less expensive to fabricate. It is the default choice for conventional removable dentures and immediate temporaries. The trade-off is that acrylic is softer and more prone to wear, staining, and fracture over time — particularly in implant-supported prosthetics where chewing forces are more concentrated. Acrylic dentures typically need replacement or significant repair within 5 to 10 years.
Zirconia is a high-strength ceramic material that has become the preferred choice for implant-supported full-arch restorations. Zirconia denture teeth and full-arch zirconia prosthetics are substantially harder, more resistant to chipping and fracture, and hold their surface texture and color more reliably over decades of use. The trade-off is cost and repairability — zirconia cannot be adjusted or repaired chairside the way acrylic can, and it costs more to fabricate. For patients investing in implant-supported overdentures or full-arch All-on-X restorations, zirconia is generally the more cost-effective long-term choice because the prosthetic outlasts acrylic alternatives by a wide margin.
At Advanced Prosthodontics & Implant Esthetics, material selection is made based on the type of prosthetic, the patient’s bite force, and their functional and aesthetic goals. Dr. Binns and Dr. Aquino — both prosthodontists with deep expertise in ceramic restorations — evaluate these factors at consultation and walk through the trade-offs specific to your case before any decision is made.
Denture Cost & Financing Options in Naples
The cost of dentures and overdentures depends on the type of prosthetic, the number of teeth being replaced, and whether implants are incorporated. As a fee-for-service practice, we do not participate in insurance networks, though we file claims so you receive applicable out-of-network reimbursement. Some plans cover a portion of denture costs; implant placement is often limited or excluded. CareCredit financing is available for patients who prefer to spread costs over time. We discuss cost transparently at your consultation so there are no surprises. To schedule your evaluation and explore your options, reach out through our contact page.
