Dentures
What are dentures?
A denture is a removable appliance that is used as a replacement for missing teeth. That are custom made and matched to the shape, colour and appearance of your other teeth. It can be either a partial denture, meaning they are replacing a few teeth, or full denture, replacing a full arch of missing teeth.
While improving the appearance of your smile and face, dentures also provide functionality and stability for eating. They can also help support the facial muscles, reducing the development of sagged muscled and wrinkles caused by loss of teeth and bone.
Depending on your age, it can be difficult adapting to a denture. Those who are older will take significantly longer to get used to the appliance being in their mouth. It is important to have a comprehensive exam and consultation with your dentist to ensure a denture is the right option for you.
