DENTURES

Dentures

Dentures offer an economical solution for replacing teeth lost due to issues like tooth decay, gum disease, or injury.

Dentures serve as replace missing natural teeth and surrounding soft tissues. They can be a temporary or permanent solution suitable for individuals of various age groups. Usually crafted from acrylic resin (plastic) or a lightweight metal (primarily cobalt chrome), dentures are designed to mimic the appearance of your natural teeth.

Types of Dentures

  • Acrylic Dentures

    Acrylic resin is a common material for the base of dentures, providing a durable and lightweight foundation. It is often used in the fabrication of complete and removable partial dentures.

  • Flexible Dentures

    Some dentures use flexible resins, such as nylon or thermoplastic materials, for the denture base. These materials offer flexibility, which can enhance comfort and provide a more natural feel. Flexible dentures are often used for removable partial dentures.

  • Metal Dentures

    Removable partial dentures may feature a metal framework constructed from alloys like cobalt-chromium or nickel-chromium. These metal frameworks are both robust and thin, providing a more comfortable and secure fit. They are commonly paired with acrylic resin to simulate the appearance of gums.
