Almost as good as the real thing…
Dentures, sometimes called “plates”, are removable acrylic replacements for missing teeth. There are either full dentures or partial dentures. Complete dentures replace all the teeth, while a partial denture fills in the spaces created by missing teeth and prevents other teeth from changing position. Complete dentures are either “conventional” or “immediate.” A conventional denture is placed in the mouth about a month after all the teeth are removed to allow for proper healing, whereas an immediate denture is placed as soon as the teeth are removed.
There are alternatives to dentures and improvements available for your current dentures. Dentures are no longer the only way to restore a mouth that has little or no restorable teeth. Dental implants can now be used to support permanently cemented bridges, eliminating the need for a denture. Dental implants can also be used to “snap” your current denture into place eliminating the painful sliding around while chewing you may be having with your denture. Dental implants are becoming the alternative of choice to dentures and a remarkable improvement to existing dentures.
