Dentures

If you think about setting dentures you may choose between two types of dentures – full and partial dentures – according to your need and the number of remaining teeth.

Full dentures

There are two main types of full dentures:

• conventional full denture or complete denture. This type of full denture is supposed to be set in the mouth after all remaining teeth are removed. Upper full denture is based on the palate and the lower denture is shaped like a horseshoe, both dentures are placed on the special acrylic base on the gums. Full set of dentures is custom-made in a special laboratory on the base of the cast of your mouth done by a dentist beforehand.
• immediate full denture. This type of denture is set right after the removal of all teeth. It is also a complete denture but it wouldn’t fit perfectly for some time as you need to make a correction of it during several months after installation, because healing processes change the shape of your gums. But at the same time there would be no period of time when you are without your teeth.

Partial dentures

Partial denture replaces one or more teeth in your mouth using remaining teeth as the base for installation. Partial denture could be an alternative to dental bridges.

Both partial and full dentures are removable dentures. But nowadays many people prefer to have implants instead of dentures. Implants can be called single tooth denture as they replace each missing tooth separately, they have titanium base fixed to the bone and a crown that looks like a real tooth. Implants are also individually made for each patient. In some cases implants can play a role of anchor for partial dentures.
