Missing teeth can cause a lot of problems. It not only affects your facial structure but also makes you less confident. It also creates many oral issues, starting from an irregular bite, speaking, and eating problems. A denture is a dental appliance that is custom made to replace the missing teeth. Depending on the number of missing teeth, dentures can either be partial or full. At Imagine Dentistry, you can get customized dentures that will suit your needs.
There are two types of dentures, namely partial and full dentures. The complete or full dentures are made up of a plastic base and look like your natural teeth and gums. They are held in place either by implants or are retained by gums. On the other hand, partial dentures are either made up of a plastic base or metallic framework. It is supported by existing teeth and is held in place using clasps and rests. They are quite carefully adapted around the natural teeth. The metal framework partial dentures are rigid and quite durable.
Taking proper care of your dentures is very important; doing so will make the equipment last longer. Clean your dentures properly so that it does not get stained.
