What is a Denture?

A denture is a detachable dental appliance designed to replace lost teeth and the surrounding tissues. Constructed from acrylic resin and sometimes metal, dentures are tailored to fit comfortably in your mouth, restoring both the look and functionality of your smile. There are two primary types of dentures: full dentures and partial dentures.

Full vs Partial Dentures

Full Dentures:

Full dentures are ideal for those who have lost all their teeth. Once any remaining teeth are removed and your gums have healed, the dentist will provide a complete set of removable dentures. Although they might feel awkward at first, full dentures will eventually become comfortable and feel natural in your mouth. They restore your smile and improve your ability to speak and chew.

Partial Dentures:

Partial dentures are ideal for those with remaining healthy natural teeth. These dentures have replacement teeth set on a pink or gum-colored base, typically supported by a metal framework for stability. They help fill in the gaps created by missing teeth, preventing your existing teeth from shifting and maintaining your oral health.

Denture Process

Getting dentures involves several key steps to ensure a comfortable and natural fit, from the initial consultation to the final fitting and follow-up appointments.

• Initial Consultation: Your dentist will examine your oral health, discuss your needs, and determine if full or partial dentures are suitable for you.
• Teeth Extraction (if needed): If necessary, the dentist will extract any remaining teeth and allow your gums to heal properly.
• Impressions and Measurements: After healing, the dentist will take precise impressions and measurements to create a custom mold for your dentures.
• Trial Dentures: You will receive trial dentures to check the fit, shape, and color, allowing for any necessary adjustments.
• Final Denture Fitting: Your final dentures will be crafted and fitted, with instructions on how to wear and care for them.
• Follow-Up Appointments: Regular follow-up visits ensure proper fit and overall oral health, with adjustments made as needed.

Benefits of Dentures

• Restore Facial Structure: Missing teeth can lead to facial sagging. Dentures support and restore your natural facial contours.
• Clearer Speech: Dentures replace missing teeth, helping you articulate words more clearly and communicate effectively.
• Better Chewing: With dentures, you can enjoy your favorite foods again, as they make chewing easier and more comfortable.
• Enhanced Oral Health: Replacing decayed teeth with dentures protects your remaining natural teeth and improves overall oral health.

Caring for Your Dentures

Keep your dentures clean and bacteria-free by rinsing and brushing them regularly. Store them in a suitable container when not in use to prevent warping. Maintaining good oral hygiene practices will ensure your new smile stays bright and your oral health remains optimal.
