Dentures are removable prosthetic devices that are used to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They are a popular and effective solution for people who have lost their teeth due to injury, decay, or disease. Here are some important things to know about dentures:
Dentures can restore your ability to eat and speak properly, which can improve your overall quality of life.
They can also help to support your facial structure and prevent sagging or wrinkling of the skin.
Dentures are a cost-effective solution for replacing missing teeth compared to other options such as dental implants.
They are also a non-invasive option, which means that they do not require surgery.
Overall, dentures can be a great solution for people who have lost their teeth. They are easy to care for and can provide a natural-looking and comfortable replacement for missing teeth. If you are considering dentures, it is important to speak with a dental professional to determine if they are the right option for you.
How common are dentures?
There are approximately four million Canadians wearing dentures.
What are dentures?
Dentures are replacements for missing teeth that can be removed and placed back in your mouth. A denture consists of a plate or frame holding one or more artificial teeth in place. Dentures can take some getting used to, and while they may never feel the same as your original teeth, they can look natural and nowadays more comfortable than ever.
The conventional full Denture?
Full Dentures are the most common denture appliances made. After the affected teeth are removed, a full denture can be crafted to fit either the upper arch, lower arch or both. The upper denture has a pink denture base that extends across the roof of the mouth to create suction and help keep the denture in place. The lower denture is u-shaped and is designed to fit snugly along the bottom ridge of the jaw.
The term βfalse teethβ concerns a lot of people. However, our denturist takes every step to ensure that your dentures look as natural as possible. Innovations in replacement tooth design have come a long way in making the false teeth look incredibly natural.
What is the Denture process?
When it comes time to fit your full denture, it will all depend on the type of dentures you have chosen and your specific needs. The following is a basic outline of the denture creation process.
You can expect the creation and fitting of your denture to take place over several office visits. While your dentures are being made, there are immediate, temporary denture solutions to ensure that you are not missing teeth during the process. An immediate denture can be used as a temporary measure while your gums and mouth heal.
