Losing your teeth is a most unfortunate situation that leads to a great deal of inconvenience. Needless to say, without teeth, eating, drinking and talking become extremely difficult and it is very important that you get some sort of replacements installed so that your mouth can function once more as it is supposed to.
There are a number of permanent options on offer to replace teeth such as getting dental implants installed but this procedure is invasive and might not appeal to everyone. One option to consider is dentures. Dentures are basically a set of replacement teeth which are held in place either through affixing agent or the natural suction ability of your gums.
They are far more life like and durable than they used to be in the past and, with the availability of friction free dentures, are a great deal more comfortable too. They can still have a tendency to slip during meal times but the fact that they are removable is a bonus for some and you could consider dentures as a short term option while you make up your mind about whether to undergo dental implant surgery.
Dentures are also available in partial sets so if you have just lost a few of your teeth in one area then you can replace them with dentures which won’t interfere with the rest of your teeth. Your dentist specially crafts them to fit with the shape of your mouth and most are so realistic that even your closest intimates won’t know that they are not your natural teeth.
Your Central Leeds dentist will be expert in dentures and you can ask them for more information the next time you are at the surgery.
