Prosthodontics – Dentures

Dentures are appliances used to replace missing teeth, whether one tooth or several. They help restore chewing function, speech, and facial structure to return the face to its natural balance. Dentures are custom-designed for each individual to fit comfortably and look natural for the wearer.

At Pride Smile Dental Clinic, we design dentures that are comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, and suitable for real-life use. Our dentists carefully evaluate the jawbone structure and remaining teeth to ensure that the dentures provide both optimal appearance and durability.

Removable dentures and fixed dentures share the same goal of replacing missing teeth, but they differ significantly in terms of functionality, convenience, and overall comfort while wearing them. Removable dentures can be taken in and out. They are suitable for individuals who have lost multiple teeth or a full arch, as they are easy to use and more affordable. However, they must be removed regularly for cleaning, and some patients may feel slight instability while speaking or chewing.

Fixed dentures, on the other hand, are secured to dental implants or bridges, providing a feel much closer to natural teeth in terms of strength, stability, and appearance. They are cared for like natural teeth and do not need to be removed. However, they involve higher costs and require sufficient jawbone structure to support the installation. For this reason, choosing the right type of denture depends on oral health condition, aesthetic preferences, budget, and the professional recommendation of a specialist dentist at Pride Smile Dental Clinic to achieve the most suitable outcome.
