If you need to replace all your missing teeth at once, then dentures are a straightforward and efficient solution. A full or partial denture design may be the best choice if you have had multiple teeth extracted.
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissues, used to help individuals who have lost some or all of their teeth regain functionality and aesthetics.
Thanks to the advancement of dental implant therapy, First Impressions Dental now offers state-of-the-art restorations which offer security and permanent support for dentures. An implant denture can be removable or permanently fixed to as few as four implants.
The base of the denture is typically made from acrylic resin or a flexible polymer that fits over the gums. The colour is usually matched to the natural gum colour.
The artificial teeth attached to the base are usually made from porcelain or acrylic resin, chosen for their similarity in appearance to natural teeth.
Depending on the number of teeth that need to be replaced, there are two types of dentures to select from.
Dentures typically last between 5 to 10 years before needing replacement.
Alternatives to dental treatments include dental implants, dental bridges, and overdentures.
The cost ranges depending on the type and material of the dentures. Consult with your dentist at First Impressions Dental about the cost of this treatment.
