Full dentures, also called complete dentures, serve to replace all missing teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, or both. Individuals who have lost all their natural teeth due to factors like decay or gum disease are candidates for this type of dental prosthetic.

Full dentures are tailored for each patient. Impressions of the patient's gums and jawbone are taken to create a mould, which is then used for the denture fabrication to ensure an accurate fit.

Yes, full dentures are removable for cleaning and upkeep. They generally stay in place through suction against the gums but may require denture adhesive for additional stability.

Modern full dentures aim to replicate the appearance of natural teeth, providing a natural-looking smile and facial contour.

The adjustment period varies, but initially, wearers may experience some discomfort. Over time, most individuals adapt and wear them comfortably.

Daily cleaning with a specialised denture brush and either mild soap or denture cleaner is essential. Dentures should also be rinsed after meals and stored in water when not in use.

Yes, if broken, full dentures can usually be repaired by a qualified dental professional. DIY repairs are not recommended and can exacerbate the damage.

Routine dental check-ups are crucial for assessing the dentures' condition, ensuring a proper fit, and addressing any issues such as sore spots or needed adjustments.

Full dentures allow wearers to consume a diverse diet. It is recommended to start with softer foods and gradually introduce a wider range of textures.

The longevity of full dentures depends on factors like oral hygiene and natural wear. On average, they last between 5 to 10 years before requiring replacement or modification.
