Dentures & Partial Dentures

Missing teeth can affect more than your smile. They can make it harder to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and feel confident in everyday situations. The Art of Dentistry offers dentures and partial dentures in Virginia Beach to help restore missing teeth and give you back a more complete, functional smile.

Full dentures are designed to replace an entire arch of missing teeth, while partial dentures can replace several missing teeth while working alongside your remaining natural teeth. During your appointment, our dental team will evaluate your oral health and discuss your options based on the number and condition of your missing teeth, your overall oral health, and your individual needs.

Dentures are custom-fitted to your mouth to provide a comfortable fit and natural-looking appearance. Properly fitted dentures can help restore your ability to chew and speak while also supporting the appearance of your smile.

Full Dentures

Full dentures are an option for patients who are missing all or most of the teeth in an upper or lower arch. They replace missing teeth with a complete set of artificial teeth designed to complement your facial features and smile.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures can replace multiple missing teeth when some natural teeth remain. They fill the spaces left by missing teeth while helping restore your ability to eat and speak comfortably.

Your Denture Consultation

Every patient’s needs are different. We will examine your teeth, gums, and overall oral health before recommending the appropriate restoration. Our team will explain your options and answer your questions so you can make an informed decision about your care.

If you’re considering dentures or partial dentures, contact The Art of Dentistry today to schedule a consultation for dentures in Virginia Beach.

Jennifer Acker is reason enough for everybody and anybody to go to this establishment. I can almost say I look forward to seeing the dentist because of her attention to detail, professionalism, yet playful, calming demeanor. As a matter of fact, the entire place is extremely professional and very calming. And this is coming from someone who has white coat syndrome, which causes my blood pressure to go through the roof every time I even step foot in a doctors office. Seriously. If you’re looking to have a pleasant experience at the dentist, this is where you go.

Great team of dentist, dental hygienist, and front office staff. Even the office manager followed up with me on a question that I asked.

The Art of Dentistry was recommended to me by several colleagues, and I am incredibly grateful that I followed their advice. I am now a very satisfied patient under the expert care of Dr. Ryan Shuck. I am always anxious and have a lot of fear when visiting the dentist, but Dr. Shuck consistently ensures that each appointment goes smoothly—and, most importantly, painlessly. From my very first visit, the communication was clear, professional, and reassuring. He takes the time to explain every step of the process, answers all of my questions with patience, and makes sure I feel completely comfortable throughout. Dr. Shuck’s expertise and skill are truly exceptional. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking top-tier dental care. Thank you, Dr. Shuck and the Art of Dentistry! Brandi, the Dental Assistant for Dr. Ryan Shuck at Art of Dentistry, is exceptionally knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. She goes above and beyond to make every patient feel comfortable and at ease. From the moment you leave the waiting room to the completion of your procedure, Brandi ensures a smooth and seamless experience. Her expertise is evident in how effortlessly she anticipates the dentist’s needs—always prepared with exactly what’s required at just the right time. Brandi plays a vital role in creating a positive and pleasant visit. Your professionalism and expert care are truly appreciated. Thank you, Brandi!

I have to say I love going to the dentist! When you go in the first thing I noticed was everyone working there was happy having fun enjoying their job which I think is very important. I personally love going in there, joking around having fun and guess what they do a great job on crowns fillings whatever you may need. I highly recommend them for any of your dental needs
Response from the owner:Hi Penny, Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoy visiting us and appreciate the fun, caring atmosphere. We take pride in providing top-notch care for all your dental needs. — Your Virginia Beach Dentist team

Normally, a trip to the dentist feels like the beginning of a horror movie: cold lights, buzzing drills, and childhood flashbacks. But this clinic completely changed my mind. From the front desk to the doctors and assistants — everyone is so friendly that you almost want to stop by just for a coffee and a chat. Dr. Shuck is a whole story on his own. Smiling, patient, and with a fantastic sense of humor. At the same time, he’s a true professional: he works thoroughly, quickly, and with such care that even my inner “I’m terrified of dentists” voice said, “Okay, let’s give this a try.” Hygienist Lissi is out of this world. I’ve been getting cleanings for years, in different cities and even countries, but the cleaning she gave me was hands down the best I’ve ever had. So gentle, comfortable, and effective — I actually walked out feeling like my teeth were shining brighter than the lamp in the treatment room. Bottom line: the clinic is amazing, the staff is golden, and the experience was nothing but positive. If there were a rating for “dentistry without fear and pain,” I’d give them 100 out of 10. Highly recommend — even to those who fear dentists more than horror movies.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Nina! We’re so glad Dr. Shuck and Lissi made your visit comfortable and enjoyable. At The Art of Dentistry, we’re proud to provide gentle dental care in Virginia Beach — from routine cleanings to cosmetic dentistry. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to seeing you again!

Do you hate the shot at the dentist? Same. I used to dread it… until I met Dr. Shuck! Somehow he makes it completely painless (I was poked three times today and didn’t feel a single pinch). He’s fast, friendly, cracks jokes to make the time fly, and his work is flawless every time. I leave every appointment feeling well cared for and at ease. Thank you, Dr. Shuck!!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Karina! We’re so glad Dr. Shuck made your visit painless and stress-free. At The Art of Dentistry, we’re dedicated to gentle dental care in Virginia Beach that keeps every patient comfortable and smiling!

As new patients, my daughter and I were treated well from start to finish! I did not feel like a stranger. All staff were friendly, thorough, and knowledgeable. Not only were they kind to us, but also to one another. We were seen on time for our appointments. The technology was current. The physical space was clean and inviting. The dentist and hygienist provided us with what we needed to make informed decisions regarding future care. UPDATE: I had to have an old root canal removed today. Yet again, everyone was wonderful. The attentiveness, patience. skill, and compassion demonstrated by everyone involved was deeply appreciated.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the wonderful review.

I cannot say enough about the care, talent and reassurances granted me by Dr. Dorfman and his team. They are truly a skilled group of professionals with chairside manners beyond question or doubt. They really are concerned about my health and wellbeing. I like that...I like that a lot!

I have always had a good experience at this office. Jennifer is a great dental hygienist. The staff is always friendly and they always explain charges and what insurance will not cover. I always feel that the staff and the dentist and hygienist always are looking out for my best dental care.This is a great practice and I would highly recommend them.
Response from the owner:Thank you Kim!

I have seen several of the hygienists and they are all very good and thorough. I've seen both Dr. Shuck and Dr. Dorman, and have been very pleased with my dental care. Both docs have great personalities and are very personable. They also listen to the patient which I have found to be in short supply in the dental field. Really a great office to receive your dental care.
Response from the owner:Thank you, John! We’re so glad to hear you’ve had a great experience with our entire team. At The Art of Dentistry in Virginia Beach, we pride ourselves on providing thorough, personalized care—and truly listening to our patients. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to continuing your dental care!

5 years later and they are still the best! Had a molar filling from 30 years ago break down, so another crown was needed. This was a one-visit-fix! Digital measurements were taken, the molar was prepped to be a post for the new crown, and the new crown was fabricated in the office, placed and ready to go. No off adjust on, off adjust back on, all done in one seamless event. Dr. Dorfman and assist were kind, gentle, and responsive. Additional staff in the office and everyone was friendly, smiling, and the vibe was focused on taking care of people. Highly recommend! Terrible tooth/jaw pain increasing over a couple of days. The folks here got me an appointment within 24 hours. At the appointment, Dr. Dorfman and Jenny methodically went through all the potential causes, settled on the least invasive of checking/adjusting a crown, and proceeded to do so. Very gentle handling. I left with a primary plan, and a secondary plan. Great service!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Theresa! We’re so glad to hear your visit went smoothly and that you felt cared for throughout. Our team at The Art of Dentistry is proud to provide same-day crowns and gentle, expert care every time. We truly appreciate your continued trust and kind words!
