Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace all of a person’s natural teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, or both. They are custom-made to fit an individual’s mouth and are designed to restore functionality and aesthetics for those who have lost all of their teeth.
About Complete dentures
Technique
- Dental Impressions: The dentist takes detailed impressions of the patient’s mouth to create custom dentures.
- Bite Registration: The dentist records the patient’s bite to ensure proper alignment and function of the dentures.
- Wax Try-In: A wax model of the dentures is created for the patient to try in, ensuring proper fit, comfort, and aesthetics.
- Final Denture Fabrication: After any necessary adjustments, the final dentures are created using acrylic or other suitable materials.
Benefits
- Restoration of Function: Complete dentures restore a person’s ability to chew food, speak clearly, and smile confidently. They help individuals maintain a more normal and active lifestyle.
- Improved Aesthetics: Dentures are designed to mimic the appearance of natural teeth and gums, enhancing a person’s facial appearance and smile.
- Enhanced Self-Confidence: By providing a natural-looking smile, complete dentures can boost a person’s self-esteem and confidence, making social interactions more comfortable.
- Cost-Effective: Compared to some other tooth replacement options like dental implants, complete dentures are often more cost-effective, making them a viable choice for those on a budget.
- Non-Invasive: Denture placement is a non-invasive procedure that does not require surgery, making it a suitable choice for individuals who may not be good candidates for surgical treatments.
- Versatility: Dentures can be customized to fit the individual’s specific needs. Conventional complete dentures, immediate dentures, and implant-supported dentures are among the available options.
