All Types of Dentures
Dentures are a time-tested solution for replacing missing teeth, helping restore not just your smile but also your ability to eat, speak, and maintain proper oral health. Whether you’re missing a few teeth or need a complete replacement, dentures offer a customized and effective solution tailored to your unique needs.
At Dr.Mulay’s Dental Clinic, we provide a wide range of denture options designed to fit comfortably and function effectively. From traditional full dentures to advanced implant-supported options, our team ensures you receive high-quality, natural-looking replacements that meet your expectations.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to substitute absent teeth and adjacent tissues. They are custom-made to fit your mouth, offering improved aesthetics, function, and oral health. Modern dentures are crafted using durable materials like acrylic, porcelain, and resin to closely mimic the appearance and feel of natural teeth.
Types of Dentures We Offer
We understand that each patient’s needs are unique, so we provide a variety of denture options to suit your requirements:
1. Full Dentures
Full dentures are used to replace teeth in the upper or lower jaw (or both). They sit on the gums and are secured by adhesive.
- Upper Dentures: Replace teeth in the upper jaw, covering the roof of the mouth for stability.
- Lower Dentures: Replace teeth in the lower jaw, designed to fit securely along the gum line.
These are ideal for people who have completely lost all their natural teeth.
2. Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are used when a few normal teeth are left. They are made up of a metal or acrylic foundation with artificial teeth connected, held in position with clasps that fit around the natural teeth.
Benefits:
- Prevent shifting of remaining natural teeth.
- Preserve jaw alignment and oral function.
- An economic solutionto replace multiple missing teeth.
3. Immediate Dentures
Immediate dentures are placed immediately after tooth extraction, allowing you to leave the dental office with teeth on the same day.
Benefits:
- Prevent being toothless during the healing process.
- Protect gums and promote faster healing.
- Temporary option while permanent dentures are being made.
4. Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer a more stable and enduring choice. They are anchored to dental implants surgically placed into the jawbone, providing enhanced security and functionality.
Types:
- Fixed Implant Dentures: Permanently secured to implants, providing the closest experience to natural teeth.
- Removable Implant Dentures: Can be taken out for cleaning but are more stable than traditional dentures.
Benefits:
- Enhanced stability and comfort.
- Improved ability to chew and speak.
- Prevent bone loss and maintain facial structure.
5. Overdentures
Overdentures are detachable dentures that can be placed over current natural teeth or dental implants. They provide improved stability and maintain the jawbone.
Benefits:
- Retain some natural teeth for support.
- Minimize bone loss.
- Provide better chewing efficiency.
6. Flexible Dentures
Flexible dentures are made from a soft, pliable material, offering a more comfortable and lightweight alternative to traditional rigid dentures.
Benefits:
- More comfortable for sensitive gums.
- Aesthetic and natural-looking.
