Denture

Dentures are prosthetic devices that act as a replacement for missing natural teeth. They are often made using materials such as metal, porcelain or acrylic resin.

A beautiful set of teeth can make a positive first impression. If you are missing some teeth, dentures may be the solution for you.

Types of dentures

  • Acrylic Dentures – The most commonly used option due to its mouldability and cost-effectiveness. Acrylic dentures can be altered, so adjustments can be made to adapt to changes in your mouth over time more easily than metal dentures.

  • Flexible Dentures – Flexible dentures are not brittle and are unlikely to shatter if dropped. Comfort is a major benefit, and patients often find chewing easier than when wearing regular dentures. They also have no visible metal clasps or hooks as may be the case for acrylic or chrome dentures.

  • Cobalt Chrome Denture – These have a strong metal base, so they are much less bulky and more fracture-resistant than acrylic-based dentures. Metal clasps fasten the dentures to existing natural teeth, making them sturdier and more comfortable. However, they are more expensive than acrylic dentures.
