Periodontal disease and tooth decay are
the two most common causes of missing teeth. Dentures,
which are custom-made from acrylic resin, are removable
prosthetic teeth that can be used to restore the function
you have lost due to missing teeth.
Dentures can be either full or partial.
Partial dentures leave some natural teeth in the mouth
and use metal attachments to anchor themselves to the
remaining teeth.
Full dentures are used
when no natural teeth remain, or when the existing teeth
are badly damaged. In these cases, the remaining teeth
must be removed and full dentures can be a good solution
to their problem.
Dentures are a proven, natural-looking
solution to missing teeth. Dentures - either full or partial
can be made in a highly cosmetic fashion where they do
not show traditional metal clips. These are called Precision
Attached Partial Dentures.
