3 Types of Denture Solutions: Which One is Right For You?
LIke any other dental problem, tooth loss can lead to serious complications over time if left neglected. However, today there are a range of affordable denture solutions designed to fit all needs, budgets, and lifestyle.
If you are wondering which denture solution is right for you, here are 3 choices:
1. Traditional Full Dentures
A full denture is a removable prosthesis that is used to replace all the teeth within an arch. Some patients may only require an upper or lower denture, while others may require both. Some advantages of this traditional tooth loss solution include:
- It’s the most affordable option
- Shortest treatment time
- Modern dentures are very natural looking and comfortable
However, traditional dentures do require regular maintenance, relines, and adjustments and their lifespan is significantly shorter than dental implants. You will have to replace your dentures every 5-7 years.
2. Valplast Flexible Partials
For patients who do not want traditional partial dentures, Valplast flexible dentures offer an innovative and natural looking tooth replacement option.
Unlike traditional dentures that are made from metal, Valplast flexible partials are made from a plastic material that fits easily into your mouth and are virtually invisible.
In addition, they are:
- Hypoallergenic
- Extremely lightweight
- Biocompatible
- Easier to clean and maintain than traditional dentures
3. Denture Implants
As a natural looking and more durable alternative to traditional dentures, dental implants are often recommended to patients. This titanium post is inserted into the jawbone, replicating the root of a natural tooth. It can be used to eliminate the need for a denture or to create better support and fit for your existing dentures.
Some of the great advantages of this tooth loss solution include:
- More natural look and feel compared to dentures
- No need for a denture adhesive and they’ll never slip out of place
- Enhanced comfort
- No diet restrictions
- Prevents jaw bone loss
While the short term investment in denture implants may be more costly compared to traditional dentures, they require less maintenance, repair, and when taken care of properly, they can last up to 20 years.
