An Overview about Types Of Dentures

Many people suffer from losing their teeth due to decay, gum diseases, cancer and other reasons. Recent statistics have shown that nearly 120 million Americans have lost at least one tooth, whereas more than 36 million Americans suffer from losing all their teeth and tend to have different Types Of Dentures or Cosmetic dentistry as a solution. Furthermore, it is expected that the number of these people in the world will increase during the next two decades.

Dentures Materials

The composition of dentures include several materials; however, Acrylic is the most significant and widespread material among others due to its easy use and comfort for patients. Acrylic is typically mixed with another material to make a full acrylic denture. Dentists can either recommend flexible acrylic denture in some cases or acrylic- metal- denture which is also known as Acrylic partial denture in others.

Types of dentures

Each patient has a special denture that has specific characteristics and composition of materials according to his or her medical condition and the number of the lost teeth. Moreover, patients with full teeth loss, due to an accident or a gum disease, need a full denture that is fixed on the patient’s jaws with considering matching its color and shape perfectly to the shape and color of the patient’s gums and natural teeth.

Doctors also recommend some patients to use a partial removable denture for easy cleaning and replacement. Still, a denture adhesive must be placed on the denture to have it well-fixed in the mouth. Moreover, a flexible denture is commonly considered as an alternative to a traditional denture since it is made of flexible and durable materials that give the patient greater comfort whenever placed in the mouth. A silicone rubber denture is also one of the solutions available to many patients.

In some cases, the patient may not need a complete aesthetic denture. In such a case Malo’s bridge is recommended because it has the ability to maintain the health of the gums and help restore their damaged soft tissues. Thus, the treatment will be much easier for the patient.

In brief, if you suffer from teeth loss and desire to get a suitable denture, contact our dentists at Healing Clinic to get a natural and bright smile.
