Different Types Of Denture
Most dentures in Coral Springs are removable for easy cleaning and safe sleeping at night. At Complete Dental Health, we provide full or partial dentures based on your oral health needs. Every patient is unique, with some missing several teeth and others missing all of them.
- Full or complete denture – We typically make these with a gum-colored plastic base and porcelain or plastic replacement teeth. A complete denture rests directly on the gums and stays in place by forming a tight seal. Patients can also use dental adhesive to help keep the dentures stable throughout the day. Another option secures the dentures using implants, which prevent them from shifting or moving. We commonly refer to these as implant-retained dentures in our dental practice. They aren’t ideal for everyone since placing implants requires surgery and involves a higher cost.
- Partial denture – A metal framework supports the number of teeth that need replacement in this dental device. It fits around natural teeth with metal clasps and rests, ensuring stability and sturdiness. We often use plastic partial dentures as temporary replacements while patients wait for healing. These temporary dentures help patients while their gums and bone heal before permanent restoration.
Benefits of Dentures
- Dentures are a quick and easy way for a patient to restore their smile with a full or partial set of functioning teeth and, unlike dental implants, they don’t require surgery.
- Custom-made dentures are carefully crafted for a totally natural look with care being taken to choose individual teeth for their shape and size as well as coloring them to match a person’s gum tissue and facial complexion. Often, small blemishes and gaps can be added for a look that is so natural no-one will even know that you’re wearing false teeth.
- Dentures fill out the face and lips making it appear more rounded, as well as adding shape and definition to the cheeks, giving a more youthful look
