Dentures Near Sunnyside
In southeast Fresno, where the city starts to meet Clovis, the Sunnyside area stretches along Kings Canyon Rd and Clovis Ave. If you live here and you are dealing with missing teeth, or a denture that never quite fit right, there is a good option nearby. Dr. Lovik Mirzaeian provides dentures at 1592 Shaw Ave, a simple drive north up Clovis Ave.
Complete dentures, partial dentures, and implant-supported dentures are all offered. The right choice depends on your teeth, your gums, and what matters most to you.
The value of a nearby denture dentist
Dentures are not a one-visit treatment. There are fittings and adjustments, so having a dentist a short drive up Clovis Ave makes it much easier. Sunnyside patients also come for the experience Dr. Mirzaeian brings, having practiced here since 2003. He is candid about what each option involves. See the main dentures page for more.
When an old denture stops fitting
It is common for a denture to feel looser over the years. The gums and bone under a denture slowly change shape, especially after teeth are removed. If yours rocks, rubs, or makes eating hard, it is worth having it checked. Depending on what Dr. Mirzaeian finds, the answer may be a new complete or partial denture, or a move to implant-supported dentures.
Your denture options
Complete dentures replace every tooth in an arch. A conventional complete denture is made after extractions, once the gums start to heal, usually about 8 to 12 weeks later. An immediate denture is made ahead of time and placed the same day the teeth come out. Because healing gums and bone shrink, it needs more adjustments and is generally a temporary step.
Partial dentures are used when some healthy natural teeth remain. Replacement teeth attach to a gum-colored base with a metal framework, and the partial keeps your other teeth from shifting. A precision partial uses internal attachments rather than clasps for a more natural look.
Implant-supported dentures
For a denture that stays put, implant-supported dentures attach to dental implants in the jaw. They usually cost more and require enough healthy bone. The dental implants page has more about how implants work.
How the process works
After an exam of your gums, any remaining teeth, and the supporting bone, Dr. Mirzaeian goes over your options. Impressions and measurements come next, followed by a try-in before the final denture. Follow-up adjustments are normal once you start wearing it, and most people need a few weeks to get used to it.
Comfort during treatment
If you feel anxious about dental care or need extractions, ask about the sedation options available.
Understanding the cost
Cost depends on the kind of denture, how many teeth are being replaced, and any treatment needed first. You will get a personalized estimate after your exam. Dental insurance is accepted and financing plans are available. Use the contact page to reach the office.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I get dentures near Sunnyside?
Dr. Mirzaeian provides dentures at 1592 Shaw Ave in Clovis, a simple drive north from Kings Canyon Rd and Clovis Ave. Call (559) 299-2168 to schedule.
Why does my old denture feel loose?
The gums and bone under a denture change shape over time, especially after extractions. That can make a denture loosen. An exam will show what can be done.
What is the difference between conventional and immediate dentures?
A conventional denture is made after the gums start healing, usually 8 to 12 weeks after extractions. An immediate denture goes in the same day but needs more adjustments and is generally temporary.
Can a partial denture replace just a few teeth?
Yes. Partial dentures replace missing teeth when healthy natural teeth remain, and they help keep those teeth from shifting.
Can I switch to implant-supported dentures?
Many patients can, if they have enough healthy jawbone. Dr. Mirzaeian can check during an exam.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Financing plans are available and dental insurance is accepted.
