Dentures Near Loma Vista
Loma Vista is one of the newer parts of Clovis, a master-planned area in the southeast out toward Temperance Ave. Whether you are looking for yourself or helping a parent who is dealing with missing teeth, dentures can restore a full smile and make meals enjoyable again. Dr. Lovik Mirzaeian provides dentures at 1592 Shaw Ave, an easy drive from southeast Clovis.
The practice offers complete, partial, and implant-supported dentures, and each plan starts with an honest look at what will work best for you.
Why southeast Clovis families choose this office
When people help a parent find a denture dentist, they usually want someone patient who explains things in plain language. Dr. Mirzaeian has been practicing since 2003, and patients often say they feel listened to. The Shaw Ave office keeps the drive short from Temperance Ave and the surrounding streets, which helps when dentures take a few appointments. The main dentures page has more background if you want it.
Complete, immediate, and partial dentures
A complete denture replaces all of the teeth in one arch. The conventional version is made after the teeth are removed and the gums begin to heal, usually about 8 to 12 weeks later. An immediate denture is made in advance and placed right after the extractions, so there is no time without teeth. Since gums and bone shrink while they heal, an immediate denture needs more adjustments and is usually a temporary option until a conventional one is made.
If you still have some healthy teeth, a partial denture can fill the spaces between them. It uses replacement teeth on a gum-colored base with a metal framework. It also helps stop your natural teeth from shifting. A precision partial replaces clasps with internal attachments for a more natural look.
Dentures that stay in place
A common complaint with traditional lower dentures is movement while chewing. Implant-supported dentures solve much of that by attaching to dental implants in the jaw. They usually cost more, and you need enough healthy bone and good general health to qualify. If you are curious, the dental implants page explains how implants work.
What to expect step by step
First comes an exam, where Dr. Mirzaeian looks at your gums, any remaining teeth, and the bone underneath. Together you decide on the type of denture. Impressions and measurements are taken so the denture is built for your mouth, and there is usually a try-in visit before the final version. After you start wearing it, a follow-up or two for small adjustments is normal. Give yourself a few weeks to get comfortable eating and talking.
Keeping you comfortable
If extractions are needed or you feel anxious about dental work, ask about the sedation options the office offers.
Understanding the cost
Denture pricing depends on the type, how many teeth are replaced, and whether extractions or other treatment come first. You will get a personalized estimate after Dr. Mirzaeian examines you. Dental insurance is accepted and financing plans are available. The contact page is the quickest way to ask.

Are dentures only for older adults?
No. People lose teeth for many reasons, including decay, gum disease, and injury. Dentures can help adults of any age who are missing several or all of their teeth.
How is a conventional denture different from an immediate one?
A conventional denture is made after the gums start to heal, usually 8 to 12 weeks after extractions. An immediate denture goes in the same day but needs more adjustments and is generally temporary.
Do partial dentures protect my other teeth?
Yes. Besides filling the gaps, a partial denture helps keep your remaining natural teeth from shifting out of position.
What if my lower denture keeps moving?
Implant-supported dentures attach to dental implants and stay in place much better. Dr. Mirzaeian can check whether you are a good candidate.
