Dentures are removable false teeth made of Acrylic (plastic) or Cobalt Chrome (metal) framework. They fit over the gums to replace missing teeth, that potentially may cause problems with eating and speech. They also improve the appearance of your smile and give you confidence!
Depending on your situation you may need:
- Partial dentures, which replace just 1 tooth or a few missing teeth
- Complete dentures, which replace all your upper or lower teeth
It usually takes up to 4 appointments from the moment when dentist have taken the impressions (moulds) of your mouth to dental technician produce custom made dentures.
However nowadays dentures are not the only one option to consider. Bridges and dental implants can be great fixed alternative as well.
