Here removable dentures can be an effect way to replace numerous missing teeth at once. Removable dentures can also be a great interim option to replace missing teeth before a more permanent fixed option can be placed in the future.
Although removable dentures aren’t the only option for losing multiple teeth, removable dentures can provide a longer lasting and more cost-effective alternative. There are 2 types of removable dentures to opt for, partial dentures or complete dentures depending on the extent of tooth loss incurred.
Dentures are fabricated over several appointments, starting with impressions taken of your teeth, designing the denture, trying in- to make sure you are happy with the fit and aesthetics of the denture and finally the fit appointment. If you have any issues regarding the fit or comfort of your existing denture- more material can be added to the fit surface. This is called relining the denture and your dentist is happy to discuss this with you as well as making any adjustments to your denture and how to care for your appliance.
