Dentures are made from different materials. Generally, plastic dentures are less expensive, while porcelain-fused-to-metal dentures are more expensive. Plastic dentures usually need to be replaced every five years or so, while porcelain-fused-to-metal dentures can last eight to ten years or more.
Actually, if you experience tooth loss, there's no need to worry too much. With today's advanced technology, dentures are your best solution when you have missing teeth. First, let me tell you that dentures are like prosthetics; they are replacements that fulfill the function of our teeth when they are missing.
So, what types of dentures are available? Dentures are mainly divided into two categories: fixed and removable. These two types are determined based on the patient's needs, and of course, the doctor will also provide the correct advice based on the patient's condition. The advantage of removable dentures is that they can be removed for cleaning, but repeated removal and insertion also has drawbacks.
Fixed dentures use the teeth on either side of the missing tooth as support points to secure the denture. This method produces dentures that are more durable and comfortable. After a period of time, they will feel like your own teeth, and you only need to brush them normally without extra cleaning.
Dentures also come in different materials. Generally, plastic dentures are less expensive, while porcelain dentures are more expensive. Plastic dentures usually need to be replaced every five years or so, while porcelain dentures can last eight to ten years or more. There is also a type of metal denture. Metal dentures feel slightly heavier than plastic or porcelain dentures, but they are not too uncomfortable and are not easily broken. They are generally preferred by older people, but young people may find them aesthetically unappealing and usually do not choose to use them.
