Dentures
Dentures
Dentures, (also known as false teeth), are devices constructed to replace missing teeth; they are supported by the surrounding soft and hard tissues of the jaws.
How can Dentures help?
- Chewing ability is improved by replacing teethless areas with denture teeth.
- Aesthetics, because the presence of teeth gives a natural appearance to the face, and wearing a denture to replace missing teeth provides support for the lips and cheeks and corrects the collapsed appearance that results from the loss of teeth.
- Pronunciation, because replacing missing teeth enables patients to speak better.
- Self-esteem, because improved looks and speech boost confidence in the ability to interact socially.
Types of Dentures
Removable partial dentures
Removable partial dentures are for patients who are missing some of their teeth.
Fixed partial dentures, also known as “crown and bridge” dentures, are made from crowns that are fitted on the remaining teeth.
Complete dentures
Complete dentures are worn by patients who are missing all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw, or more commonly, in both jaws.
