Dentures
If you have lost your natural teeth from periodontal disease, tooth decay or injury, dentures can replace your missing teeth and give you a more natural smile. In turn this can benefit your overall health as support from the dentures will combat the sagging of facial muscles, which can advance the ageing process. It will also enhance your eating, speaking and communication abilities.
There are various types of dentures,
- Partial dentures to replace multiple missing teeth.
- A conventional full denture is made and placed after any remaining teeth are removed and tissues have healed, which may take several months. This is an effective option for patients suffering from multiple tooth loss, whose remaining teeth are severely damaged.
- An immediate complete denture is inserted as soon as the remaining teeth are removed. The benefit of immediate dentures is that the patient does not have to be without teeth throughout the healing period.
A thorough oral hygiene routine is essential to ensure the longevity and quality of your dentures. If you are suffering from tooth loss or damage and feel that dentures are the option for you, contact our friendly team to arrange a consultation.
