What Are Dentures?

Dentures in Miami are individualized, custom made, appliances used to replace natural teeth. Dentures are designed to appear like natural teeth and are used to restore the full oral function that is lost by having missing teeth. There are two types of dentures available from Dr. de Cardenas:

A full and a partial denture.

. Partial Denture

A partial (removable) denture is typically indicated when one or more of the natural teeth remain in the upper or lower jaw. A partial denture generally consists of replacement teeth affixed to a gum-colored base that remain in place by fastening on to the remaining teeth with clasps called precision attachments. Precision partial dentures are removable and give a natural appearance. A partial denture is used to fill in the space once occupied by the missing teeth. Dentures in Miami can also serve to keep one’s remaining teeth in place.

. Full Denture

A full or complete denture is generally indicated when none of the natural teeth remain. A full denture is comprised of a gum-colored base that supports a full set of porcelain or plastic teeth. This full denture is held in place by forming a seal with the gums.

. Different Types of Full Dentures:

Conventional Denture: Conventional Dentures are made after all teeth have been removed from the patients mouth and the patients gum tissue has began to heal. Eight to Twelve weeks after the teeth have been removed, the patient is now ready to have their dentures put in place.
