Top Reasons To Consider Dentures – Part 2

ByDr Susan Pan, DDS

For many people, the idea of getting dentures is unappealing. They’re expensive, they can be uncomfortable, and they require special care. However, there are actually many good reasons to get dentures, especially if you are missing a lot of teeth. In this article, we will cover the top 8 reasons to get dentures.

The Different Types of Dentures

There are two main types of dentures: complete dentures and partial dentures. Complete dentures are used when all of the patient’s natural teeth have been removed. Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain.

Complete dentures are made of a plastic base that fits over the gums. The base is attached to artificial teeth, which can be made from porcelain or plastic. Partial dentures also have a plastic base, but they are attached to metal clasps that fit around the natural teeth.

Dentures can be made to look like natural teeth, and they can be customized to fit each patient’s mouth. Dentures are usually removable, but there are also some types that can be permanently implanted.

Dentures can improve the appearance of a person’s smile and help them to eat and speak more easily. They can also boost a person’s confidence and self-esteem.
