Partial and full dentures

Partial dentures, when individual teeth are still present, and complete dentures, when all teeth need to be replaced.

Prosthesis types at a glance:
- So-called. Model cast dentures are attached to the remaining teeth with steel clasps. They have two advantages: Your own teeth require minimal grinding and they are inexpensive. Disadvantage: loosen quickly and therefore are no longer used often.
- The more stable and attractive alternative to simple clasp dentures is telescopic or attachment dentures. Here, the dentures are attached to the remaining teeth in a kind of plug-in connection. This gives them a firm and stable hold. There are also no metal parts visible. Disadvantage: Teeth must be ground & higher cost.
- Complete dentures are made when all teeth are missing. Many patients do well with it. Others perceive them as a considerable loss of quality of life: because the prostheses may not fit well, because there may be pressure points, and because patients can no longer eat everything.
