Dealing with tooth loss can be difficult. Fortunately, dentures are a time-tested cosmetic dentistry solution for replacing lost teeth, and there are many options available at Canal View Dental Surgery that can be tailored to your individual need. Here are three compelling reasons why someone might need dentures.
While there are many subtypes of dentures; in general, dentures come in two main varieties — removable and fixed/dental implant. Removable dentures are made of a gum-colored base and prosthetic teeth, which fit over the remaining bone ridge that formerly held your natural teeth. They are two main types of removable denture: partial and full.

If you’re missing just a few teeth on either side of your jaw, you will want partial dentures. Some partial dentures are transitional and they serve as a temporary replacement for teeth following an extraction, or if you are preparing for dental implants. Once you’re ready to move on to something more permanent, you will be fitted for dentures that are customized to your mouth. These are well-constructed and metal-based, and you’ll be able to use them for quite a while.
Full Dentures If you’ve lost your full set of teeth then full dentures are the way to go.
Full dentures can look and function just like your natural teeth. Here the upper denture is like a plate that covers the roof of your mouth. Meanwhile a set of lower dentures is horseshoe-shaped and rests on your gums. Down the line, your dentures can be crafted to accurately look and feel like your full set of natural teeth. These dentures are last a long time, too.
Fixed Dentures / Dental Implant Dentures While removable dentures are a great functional and economic solution, fixed dentures (dental implants dentures) can be a great tooth replacement option, acting as the better long-term investment. Dental implant dentures look, and perhaps more importantly work and feel like your natural teeth.
My new dentures fit perfectly and look incredibly natural. I finally feel like I can laugh and smile without worrying.
