Thanks to these dentures, patients who have completely lost their teeth can easily meet their needs such as eating in their daily lives. There are many important details to know about removable dentures.
What are Removable or Fixed Dentures?
Removable dentures are prostheses that can be removed and inserted in the mouth and used to replace missing teeth. It is more commonly known as removable dentures. As a result of tooth extraction, no more teeth will grow again in that area. If it is not possible to apply a fixed prosthesis to the adjacent teeth of the gap tooth, a false prosthesis is applied. These teeth look just like your own teeth and are just as easy to use. There are many different types of dentures depending on the oral and dental health of the person.
What are the Types of Removable Dentures?
Removable dentures are divided into different types in terms of structure and use. Depending on people’s oral and dental structure, there are many different denture types. The most popular types of prosthetic teeth are as follows:
- Total dentures

Dentures become necessary if the patient has lost all or most of their natural teeth, or if the teeth that remain are in such a poor condition that they decide dentures would be the better option. They bring the following advantages:
- Reduce problems with eating,
- Prevent problems with speaking,
- Improve the aesthetic appearance of the smile,

Things to Consider When Using Removable Dentures
When you want to have removable dentures, you must pay attention to some important points. Many people have difficulty using such kind of dentures. Even so, they are reluctant to use dentures in case of permanent tooth loss. Things to consider in general when you need to use dentures:
- Removable dentures are very fragile and can break in the event of a fall or impact.
- If you do not wear your removable dentures, you must either put them in water or put them in a denture cleaning solution to prevent them from drying out.
- You should always brush your dentures daily and ensure the necessary hygiene.
- In case of any fracture and problem, you should definitely consult your dental specialist. Do not make any intervention. Prosthetic teeth can be fixed or removable. Depending on your oral/dental condition, your dentist determines the type of prosthetic tooth for application. Once determined, it is applied.
