Dental hygiene tips for healthy teeth & gums
The health and function of your mouth depend on the health and function of your teeth. Teeth are vital for eating, speaking, and smiling.
People can maintain their natural teeth throughout their lives if they practice good oral hygiene. Many adults, however, tend to lose some or all of their teeth as they age for a variety of reasons.
One common reason for this is poor oral hygiene. Another is not taking regular dental appointments. Modern dentistry can help you overcome either of these restrictions so that you can eat, smile, and speak freely again.
Who needs dentures?
An artificial tooth set or dentures is attached to a base, suctioned to the gums, and held in place. You can choose between porcelain and acrylic. To ensure that your dentures look natural, their color is usually matched to your existing teeth, while the base is gum-colored. Different types of dental alloys can also be used to make temporary dentures in some cases.
Metal dentures have several advantages
A bond’s base material determines the classification of dentures. It comes in two types: acrylic and porcelain, and you can choose what material is right for you.
Metal-base dentures
It is incorrect to call metal-base dentures metal dentures since the denture base is the only metal component. There are two types of metal-based dentures:
Standard Metal-Based Dentures: The metal should be hypoallergenic, biocompatible, and suitable for direct contact with gum tissue.
Modified Metal-Base Denture: In either case, a soft or hard plastic liner separates the metal base from the supporting tissue. Generally, soft liners are preferred, as hardliners tend to be uncomfortable. Soft liners have the disadvantage of having to be replaced annually.
Whether you need a bridge or a denture, dentists can fit you with an artificial set of teeth. Getting your confidence back is easy with the perfect fitting solution from professionals.
