Dentures are artificial replacements for your natural teeth and gums. If an accident, disease, or poor oral health care has left you with only a few healthy teeth or none at all, your dentist might suggest dentures to replace your missing teeth. There are two types of dentures: partial and complete. For both types of dentures, your dentist or specialist will make a model of your teeth by taking impressions. These models are used to custom-make your dentures.
Complete Dentures
Conventional complete dentures are removable and rest on the gums. They are made after the teeth have been removed and the gum tissue has begun to heal. Complete dentures replace all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw, providing a full set of new teeth for a functional and aesthetic smile.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures consist of replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored base and are used when one or more natural teeth remain in place. They fill the gaps left by missing teeth, preventing other teeth from shifting and maintaining proper alignment.
Types of Dentures Available
For both complete and partial dentures, multiple options are available to suit your needs:
- Provisional Flipper Dentures: These are temporary dentures used while your permanent dentures are being made. They are lightweight and easy to use.
- Acrylic Dentures: Made from durable acrylic material, these dentures are affordable and can be easily adjusted.
- Cast Partial Dentures: These dentures have a metal framework, making them stronger and more stable than acrylic dentures.
