What is denture?

This is a removable false teeth appliance that can be made of different materials (plastic, metal or nylon) that is installed over gums to perform the functions of healthy teeth. A denture is an affordable way to solve the problem of gaps caused by missing teeth. Dentures help a person to chew, eat and speak normally. Besides, it helps to restore a healthy smile. Our specialists use two basic types of dentures:

• A complete denture is recommended to replace all missing teeth of the lower or upper jaw;
• A partial denture is typically used to restore one or a few missing teeth.

Why you should treat missing teeth? Gaps in jaws can cause the whole gamut of dental problems starting from displacement of teeth and causing by articulation problems.
