Are you facing tooth loss and want to regain your beautiful smile in Hyderabad? Dentures can be the answer. At Park Dental Clinic, our expert team, led by Dr. Shrishty Jain, Orthodontist and Certified Invisalign specialist, along with Dr. Praveen Kurapati, MDS Orthodontist, is here to provide you with top-notch pre and post-operative care-.

Dentures are custom-made prosthetic devices that replace missing teeth, helping you chew food, speak clearly, and enhance your facial aesthetics. Not replacing lost teeth can lead to a sunken facial appearance, and dentures play a crucial role in correcting this. They replicate natural gum tissue while supporting your lips, cheeks, and overall facial structure.

Types of Dentures

What Are Dentures and How Do They Work?

• Complete Dentures:  These are for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth on the upper or lower arches of their mouth.
• Fixed Partial Dentures: Also known as "crown and bridge," these are ideal when only a few teeth are missing. They offer a permanent solution with precision placement.
• Removable Partial Dentures: When you've lost some but not all of your teeth, these partial dentures are convenient and can be easily removed as needed.
• Full and Partial Dentures: Partial dentures replace some missing teeth and use plates and clips for stability, while full dentures replace all teeth and may be attached to dental implant posts for a secure fit.
• Immediate (Same Day) Dentures: For those needing a quick solution, immediate or same-day dentures offer a speedy alternative. These dentures are created before your natural teeth are removed. This means you can have a new smile on the same day as your tooth extraction, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily life.
Understanding the types of dentures allows you to make informed decisions about the best option for your unique situation. At Park Dental Clinic Hyderabad, our experienced team will guide you in choosing the right type of dentures for your oral health and aesthetic preferences.

Common Denture Issues

Sometimes, denture wearers may encounter common issues that affect their comfort and function. Understanding these problems can help you address them effectively:

• Support: Dentures should be properly supported in your mouth to prevent vertical movement. Improper support can lead to discomfort and affect your ability to chew.
• Stability:Horizontal movement or "slipping" can be hazardous, making it challenging to speak and eat comfortably. Maintaining the quality of your denture base is crucial to prevent slipping.
• Retention: Denture retention relates to the effectiveness of the seal between the denture and your gums. A well-made denture that closely matches the natural topography of your mouth will provide better retention.
•  If you experience any of these issues, contact our specialists at Park Dental Clinic Hyderabad for prompt assistance and adjustments.
