Full and partial dentures
Full and partial dentures are dental prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth and restore oral function and aesthetics. They are custom-made to fit the unique shape of a patient’s mouth and can be removable. Full dentures are used when all the natural teeth in a patient’s upper or lower arch are missing or need to be replaced. Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain in the upper or lower arch, and the patient is missing several teeth. Dentures can significantly improve a person’s ability to eat, speak, and smile, providing both functional and cosmetic benefits. Proper care and maintenance are essential to ensure their longevity and comfort.
