Dentures
Dentures are prosthetic devices constructed to replace missing teeth and which are supported by surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. Conventional dentures are removable; however there are many different denture designs, some of which rely on bonding or clipping onto teeth or dental implants.
Different types of Dentures:
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures replace all of your teeth, or all of your upper or lower teeth. The comfort of complete dentures depends on muscle, bones, tongue and saliva.
Partial Dentures
Partial Dentures are designed to correct the gaps in your smile when only some of your teeth are missing. Metal attachments anchor the dentures to your natural teeth. Partial Dentures maintain tooth alignment by preventing your remaining teeth from shifting. Partial Dentures can also help you prevent further tooth loss due to decay or gum disease.
Benefits of dentures are:
- Replacing missing teeth will benefit your appearance and your health.
- Replacing missing teeth will stop the remaining teeth migrating, realigning a person’s bite and smile.
- Dentures help keep facial muscles from sagging, which can make a person look older.
- You'll be able to eat and speak - things that people often take for granted until their natural teeth are lost. And if you've had trouble with your natural teeth for a number of years, you might not have been able to eat the foods you want or speak comfortably for quite a while.
- You can smile again. We know denture wearers who've said that simply being able to smile again really helped their outlook on life.
