Dentures and 2 types of dentures

Tên quảng cáo

Dentures are movable attached fake teeth composed of metal, nylon, or acrylic (plastic). They fill in gaps left by missing teeth and take care of any possible issues by fitting securely over the gums.

Gaps caused by missing teeth can cause speech and eating issues, and the teeth on either side of the gap may crookedly develop into the hole.

Sometimes it’s necessary to extract and replace every tooth.

Therefore, you could require one of the following:

  • complete dentures (a full set) – which replace all your upper or lower teeth, or
  • partial dentures – which replace just 1 tooth or a few missing teeth

Dentures can help you prevent a speech and eating issue. If you need complete them, they can make you feel more confident and improve the appearance of your smile.

Denture could not provide you with the outcomes you anticipate, too. Before committing to a plan, be clear with your dentist about it.

Complete dentures

A full denture will be fitted if all of your upper or lower teeth must be extracted, or if your present complete denture has to be replaced.

You won’t be without teeth for long because the denture is often fitted as soon as your teeth are pulled. It will fit snugly over your jawbone and gums.

However, if a denture is fitted immediately after several teeth are pulled, the gums and bone will change shape quickly, and they will most likely need to be relined or reconstructed after a few months.

It may take several months for your gums to recuperate and change shape before a denture can be put. You can get your denture made and fitted by either a dentist or a qualified clinical dental technician.

They differ in that a dentist will take impressions (molds) of your mouth before obtaining complete or partial dentures from a dental technician.

A professional dental technician will make a whole set of denture for you without requiring you to visit your dentist (although you should still have regular dental check-ups with your dentist). Your mouth impressions will be utilized to create a trial one.

The dentist or expert dental technician will install this in your mouth so you can decide how well it fits and looks.

Before the final one is made, the form and color can be changed.

Partial dentures

Partial dentures are used to replace the gaps left by one or more missing teeth. A plastic, nylon, or metal plate is linked to a number of false teeth.

Metal clasps that latch onto parts of your natural teeth keep it firmly in place in your mouth the majority of the time. It is easily unclipped and removed.

The clips are often made of a tooth- or gum-colored material, although they aren’t always the ideal alternatives because they are more fragile than metal.

After your initial consultation with your dentist for a treatment plan and certificate of oral health, you can see a qualified clinical dental technician who can manufacture a partial denture for you, or you can have your mouth measured by your dentist, who will then order one for you.

Some people may be candidates for a fixed bridge, which is a partial denture option. To cover the gap, an artificial tooth is implanted between two crowns that have been placed on the teeth on each side of it.

Denture care

Although wearing dentures may feel strange at first, you will rapidly become adapted to them.

You may have to wear yours all the time at first, even while sleeping.

You should see your dentist or a qualified dental technician about whether you should remove your denture before going to bed.

Even though it is not always necessary, removing them at night may help your gums.

You should keep them wet when you remove them. Put them in water, a polythene bag with cotton wool inside, or a suitable overnight denture-cleaning solution. By doing this, the material won’t dry out and change form.

Dental hygiene

When you wear denture, maintaining good oral hygiene is really important.

Brush your remaining teeth, gums, and tongue with fluoride toothpaste every morning and evening to avoid tooth decay, gum disease, and other dental concerns.

Cleaning 

Plaque and food residue should be removed from your denture on a regular basis.

For this reason, dirty one can also result in some issues including bad breath, gum disease, tooth decay, and oral thrush.

Denture should be cleaned as frequently as natural teeth (at least twice a day: every morning and night).

Cleaning denture

You should:

  • Before soaking your dentures, clean them with toothpaste or soap and water to remove any food particles.
  • Wash them in a fizzy solution produced from denture-cleaning tablets to remove stains and bacteria (follow the manufacturer’s instructions).
  • As you would your regular teeth, clean them more than one (but don’t scrape them too hard).

Dentures are delicate and can break if dropped, so clean them over a basin, sink, or anything pliable like a folded towel.

Eating 

When using denture for the first time, chew carefully and with both sides of your mouth when eating soft foods divided into little pieces.

Chewing gum and anything sticky, hard, or with sharp edges should be avoided.

You can gradually resume eating new things until you are back on your previous diet. Never, ever use a toothpick.

Denture adhesive

You shouldn’t necessarily need to apply a denture fixative if your dentures fit properly (adhesive).

If your jawbone has been badly compromised, glue may be your only choice for keeping your denture in place.

If this is the case, your dentist or a dental technician will let you know.

Some people find that utilizing adhesive makes them feel more comfortable wearing their dentures at first. Use only when necessary and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

By brushing with soap and water, adhesive can be removed from the denture.

Remove any adhesive residue that has remained in the mouth with a wet kitchen roll or a new, damp flannel.

In-office treatment

Even if you have complete dentures, you should visit your dentist on a regular basis so that they can look for any problems.

If you take good care of your dentures, they should last you for many years.

As a result of the inevitable shrinkage of your gums and jawbone, your denture may no longer fit as well as it once did and may become loose or worn.

You should go to the dentist as soon as possible. If your denture slips or clicks when you talk, or if you believe they no longer fit comfortably, consult a dentist:

  • Your dentures feel awkward.
  • You have obvious indicators of tooth decay or gum disease, such as bleeding gums or bad breath, and your dentures are noticeably worn down

In addition to causing substantial discomfort, worn or badly fitting denture can cause oral sores, infections, or difficulties speaking and eating.

Q&A

What type of false teeth is best?

Snap-in dentures are the best in terms of stability. They are firmly snapped into place using anchors on nearby teeth or dental implants. Patients who are missing teeth but have enough bone density to support an implant might benefit from these dentures.

What is the difference between denture and false teeth?

Denture and false teeth are, in all honesty, the same thing. Both terms can be used interchangeably. They are artificial prosthetic devices that are used to repair dental anomalies caused by periodontal disease, tooth decay, facial injuries, and other diseases.

Can false teeth be fitted permanently?

Artificial teeth implants are permanent because a metal screw is put into the jawbone for stability before a false tooth is installed on top of it. A single implant or a whole set of implants are also alternatives. Even though implants are significantly more expensive than dentures, some people are ready to pay the extra money for their permanency.

How long will false teeth last?

They are the preferred dental replacement for those who have lost the majority of their teeth due to gum disease, severe tooth damage, or aging. Dentures, on the other hand, do not last permanently. Even the highest-quality, most durable dentures often need to be replaced after 7-10 years.

Can you sleep with dentures in your mouth?

No matter what kind of denture you have, sleeping with them is never a good idea and can lead to a wide range of health problems. Make sure to take out them every night before bed to maintain your mouth free of germs, your gums healthy, and your bones intact and strong.

Are false teeth a good idea?

Dentures are one of the most cost-effective ways to replace missing teeth. Removable dentures, on the other hand, might shift and loosen over time if not well fitted, which can be uncomfortable and impede speech and eating. Furthermore, extended usage of removable dentures may result in jaw bone atrophy.
