Denture Treatment
What are Dentures?
Missing teeth or damaged tissues can artistically be replaced by dentures. Dentures are removable and made up of acrylic, metal or porcelain. There are two types of dentures:
Complete Dentures:
- When all teeth are lost, complete dentures are applied to replace all of the missing teeth.
Partial Dentures:
- When part of natural teeth still exists, partial dentures are put into action. They can fill gaps of missing teeth as well as stop teeth to shift their positions. Partial denture includes replacement teeth connected to a plastic base of gum color. This is further attached to metal clasps in order to make dentures position immovable in the mouth. Instead of metal clasps, precision attachments are also used as they give aesthetic look.
