If you have missing teeth, you might have thought of ways to have the problem fixed. One way you can fix your dental problem of missing teeth is through dentures. Dentures are dental devices that are attached permanently to the bone of the jaw. They are similar to dental bridges and dental implants in that they are used to enhance dental functions.
When you have missing teeth, the dentures will be prepared by the dentist in a way that fits snugly onto your gums and also in a way that they can be easily removed for cleaning.
There are a couple of denture types, and they include the following
This is the type of dentures that are used to replace all the missing teeth in one arch. It consists of an acrylic base made of plastic that blends perfectly with the patient’s gums and complete teeth set produced from resin material.
Before the dentures are made, the dentist will take all the necessary measurements and requirements of your teeth, and the information will be forwarded to the technician who will make the dentures. This activity aims to ensure that the dentures fit very well over the patient’s jawbone and gums. When they are handed to you, you will be shown how they can be cleaned effectively by the dentist.
This type of denture is used to replace 1 or more missing teeth, and it is better suited for people who have a couple of natural teeth left. In this case, not all the teeth are missing, and the artificial teeth will be used to fill the gaps that are left by one or several missing teeth. The partial dentures mostly get affixed to a framework made of metal which is then attached to a patient’s natural teeth that hold it in position.
This type of denture is a type of permanent solution and can be used either for complete dentures or partial dentures. The dental implant that is installed will be the root of the tooth and is meant to secure the position of the dentures when it is placed. Dental implants are small screws made of titanium that are placed into the jawbone area. It serves as an anchor fixed into position just for the incoming dentures. The benefits of this type of denture over the other types include the following
Although it may take some time to get used to, they are comfortable and will hardly cause any issues.
The following feature are benefits associated with dentures
The overall cost of denture treatment depends on a few things, like the time of preparation and the material used for its preparation. You may have to visit your dentist regularly before it is completed; however, the overall cost will be made known to you by your dentist.
It is always a good idea to have your dentures removed before you retire for the night. When you do this, you will give your jawbones and gums the chance to relax and recover from the daily pressure of the dentures. Whether you have complete or partial dentures, they should not be worn for complete 24 hours but must be removed and cleaned.
During the first couple of weeks, you will certainly feel uncomfortable, but the feeling disappears after a while. If it continues, you should see your doctor.
You should stick to eating soft foods and liquids like broth, soups, pudding, vegetables etc. Hard foods and candies can damage dentures.
Dentures are expected to last for years if maintained properly. However, you should consider replacing them after about 5 to 8 years as they must have become worn out from being used daily.
If you notice your dentures have been broken or snapped into two parts, see your dentist and find out if they can be repaired or if you will need to get a replacement.
