New technologies and inventions have allowed us to undergo numerous dental treatments that were earlier thought of as impossible. Cosmetic dentistry has made it possible for us to undertake numerous treatment procedures that offer faster and better results than was possible before.

Treatment opportunities under cosmetic dentistry include teeth whitening treatments, dental implants and full or partial dentures. The cosmetic dentures have become immensely popular because of the ease with which it can solve numerous dental problems.

These dentures are quite different from the dentures available earlier. In this article, we throw some light on the process for undergoing a full or partial denture and how it can be effective.

Partial vs. Full Dentures:

Partial dentures are utilized when a patient has lost some teeth within one arch. There is a need to replace the set of teeth that have been removed due to an accident, infection or inflammation. On the other hand, a full denture becomes necessary when a patient has lost all of the teeth in, maybe, the upper or lower jaw. In most circumstances, full dentures are undertaken by older people, who lose their teeth due to aging or other problems that strike in the old age. After getting the dentures, it becomes easier for the patients to speak easily and also chew their food without finding it difficult. One also sees an improvement in the smile and the tissues of the face.

What Is The Procedure For Getting Dentures?

The procedure for getting a full or partial denture involves consulting a specialized dentist to find out about the procedure and the suitability of the patient for the treatment. After that, one has to undertake several appointments over a period of several weeks to obtain the dentures. The dentist has to take accurate measurements and impressions of the teeth in order to create the appropriate dentures.

For getting the perfect fit, color and shape, one needs to undertake some ‘try-in’ appointments during which the dentures are tried on several times. Finally, the last sitting would involve trying on the final denture and checking for comfortability in the dentures.

After getting a denture, patients usually complain of certain side-effects such as a greater flow of saliva, some amount of pain and soreness as well as difficulty in speaking and chewing of food. However, these side effects are only temporary and after a few weeks, one no longer faces these problems anymore.

Therefore, dentures are quite an effective method of replacing teeth that is lost due to certain circumstances. However, the treatment should always be undertaken under the care of a specialized dentist who would be able to help you out.
