How Do Dentures Work?
A denture or a complete denture as it is often called, is an appliance that is inserted in the mouth, replaces natural teeth and provides support for the cheeks and lips.
Most dentures are made of acrylic and can be fabricated two different ways.
- A conventional denture is made after all teeth have been extracted and the tissues (gums) have healed.
- An immediate denture is fabricated and inserted immediately after the teeth are extracted and the tissues are allowed to heal under the denture.
- An upper denture has acrylic, usually flesh colored, that covers the palate (roof of the mouth).
- A lower denture is shaped like a horseshoe to leave room for the tongue.
The teeth are made of plastic, porcelain or a combination of both. Dentures can be fabricated to fit over endodontically treated teeth and a complete denture can be attached to dental implants to allow for a more secure fit of the appliance.
Dentures over a normal course of time will wear and need to be replaced or relined in order to keep the jaw alignment normal. The alignment will slowly change as the bone and gum ridges recede or shrink due to the extraction of the teeth. Regular dental examinations are still important for the denture wearer so that the oral tissues can be checked for disease or change.
Implant Dentures
Implant dentures are often preferred by patients because they offer first-class results when it comes to both aesthetic appearance and functionality. Instead of the dentures resting on the gums, they’ll be secured to dental implants that are surgically placed into the jawbone, allowing them to mimic the natural roots of teeth. This creates an unwavering foundation for the prosthetics to be attached to, eliminating the need for denture adhesive and the possibility of slipping or shifting teeth.
Denture Reline & Repair
In addition to crafting dentures from scratch, our team also relines and repairs them to make sure they’re easy to use and comfortable. As you age, you’ll likely notice their fit begins to change due to a change in your oral structure or possible damage. Bring them in to make sure they keep working for you!
