Dentures

Another option to replace teeth is to get dentures. Patients can choose to get full or partial dentures.

A full denture replaces the entire set of top or bottom teeth and attaches fits onto the gum, while a partial denture only replaces a few teeth in your mouth. Partial dentures are made up or one or more false teeth, they are held in place by clasps that fit onto nearby teeth.

The denture is the most economical way to replace missing teeth. However do not set your expectations too high for chewing ability and aesthetics.<

Long term denture users will experience sore gums and hasten bone resorption.

Remember, you need to care for a denture as carefully as you would look after your natural teeth.
