Dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace missing teeth. Dentures are prescribed when a patient has missing teeth, and they feel that the missing teeth need to be replaced as soon as possible.
What Are The Benefits of Dentures?
Dentures are an affordable, effective solution to missing teeth. They are preferable to missing teeth because they help to maintain the structure of your mouth and jaw. Furthermore, they help to prevent the development of dental problems such as gum disease, bone loss, and misalignment. Dentures also improve your appearance, allowing you to smile with confidence.
Missing teeth can affect your ability to eat and speak properly. It can affect your facial structure, causing you to look older. Dentures restore your smile, allowing you to eat and speak properly. Dentures also restore the appearance of your face. They make your face look fuller, making you look younger.
In addition to replacing missing teeth, dentures also serve a cosmetic function. They can help with sagging and wrinkled skin due to the resorption of the bone that occurs when teeth are missing. Dentures help to prevent that.
Implant-supported dentures are more stable than regular dentures. However, regular dentures can still be effective as long as they are properly fitted. As a result, it is important that your dentures are properly fitted and maintained.
Types of Dentures
Dentures are categorized into complete dentures and partial dentures based on the number of teeth they replace.
Complete dentures
Complete dentures are a set of false teeth that are made to replace an entire upper or lower arch of teeth. These are usually made of gum-colored acrylic, but they can be made of porcelain as well.
Partial dentures
Partial dentures are dentures that replace several teeth, but not all. They are custom-made to fit your mouth, and they are made of a gum-colored plastic base that is either rigid or flexible. A metal framework helps the dentures stay in place. The teeth will be made of plastic, porcelain, or a combination of the two.
These dentures are a good solution for people who have lost several teeth but still have healthy teeth remaining. They help restore the look of the mouth and make it easier to eat and speak.
