Home / Denture
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore both functionality and appearance. They come in two main types: complete dentures, which replace all teeth, and partial dentures, which are used when some natural teeth remain. Dentures help individuals with chewing, speech, and aesthetics by mimicking the appearance of natural teeth. Modern dentures are custom-made to fit comfortably and improve the wearer’s quality of life.
Tooth loss can occur due to several factors, including poor oral hygiene, gum disease (periodontitis), tooth decay, or injury. In some cases, age-related conditions such as bone loss in the jaw or chronic illnesses like diabetes can also contribute to tooth loss. Dentures become essential when the loss of teeth affects one’s ability to perform basic oral functions and compromises facial structure.
Common signs indicating the need for dentures include difficulty in chewing, noticeable gaps due to missing teeth, speech changes, or a sunken appearance around the mouth. Other symptoms include loose teeth, receding gums, and frequent oral infections. People who experience discomfort or insecurity due to the appearance of their smile may also consider dentures as a suitable solution.
The treatment process involves a thorough dental evaluation to assess the suitability for dentures. Impressions of the mouth are taken to create a custom-fit set. Complete dentures are used if all teeth are missing, while partial dentures are designed for cases where some natural teeth remain. Proper care and regular dental check-ups are essential to maintain the longevity of dentures. Adjustments may be required to ensure comfort and functionality, particularly after the initial fitting period.
Dentures provide a practical and aesthetic solution to tooth loss, allowing patients to regain confidence and enjoy an improved quality of life.
