Complete dentures are removable prosthetic devices used to replace all of the natural teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, or both. They are designed to restore functionality, aesthetics, and oral health for individuals who have lost all of their teeth due to various reasons, such as decay, gum disease, or trauma. Here’s an overview of complete dentures: Types of Complete Dentures: Conventional Dentures: These are made after the remaining teeth have been removed, and the gum tissues have begun to heal. Conventional dentures are typically placed about 8-12 weeks after tooth extraction. Immediate Dentures: Immediate dentures are made in advance and can be positioned immediately after tooth extraction. They serve as a temporary solution while the gum tissues heal. Immediate dentures may require adjustments as the mouth heals and the gums shrink. Components of Complete Dentures: Denture Base: The base of the denture is made of acrylic resin or other materials and fits over the gums. It provides support for the artificial teeth and allows for attachment of other components. Artificial Teeth: The artificial teeth are made of durable materials such as acrylic or porcelain and are custom-designed to resemble natural teeth in size, shape, and color.
