Time to Reconsider Your Denture Services with Digital Denture

Denture is known for the removable replacement of the missing teeth and surrounding tissues. This is an age-old procedure and like other oral treatments, denture has its perks.

Two types of dentures are available in the dental industry:

• Complete Denture: When all the teeth are needed to be replaced, then complete denture is used. There are two types of complete denture process. Immediate dentures are made in advance and they can be placed right away after the teeth removal. Whereas, in conventional dentures patients have to wait 8-12 weeks for the replacement after teeth removal.

• Partial Denture: In this case a portion of the teeth is damaged or missing and needs replacement. It is basically a bridge where replacement teeth are attached to a gum-color base made of plastic, sometimes connected by a metal framework; it holds the teeth in place.

Now Dentures Have Gone Digital:

The newest addition to the denture industry is the digitization. Now, this procedure has become more technologically advanced with the inclusion of Digital Smile Design and Intra-Oral Scanner.
