What is Dentures?
Dentures, popularly known as artificial teeth, are used in case of tooth loss. In addition to the aesthetic concerns it creates while smiling, the loss of teeth hampers the oral function of the person. The prostheses are designed in our UltraDent dental laboratory with a treatment plan that prioritizes the patient's comfort at the highest level.
Dentures, which are individually precisely designed, replace the teeth lost due to damage to the gums and tissues. Dentures can be easily inserted and removed or fixed in the mouth. The health and protection of the remaining teeth is the most important thing during denture treatment. Thus, the most appropriate treatment for the patient is provided by our clinic. Dentures are divided into two as full dentures and partial dentures in line with the approval of the dental. While full dentures are suitable for patients who have lost all their teeth, partial dentures are designed for patients who are missing only a few teeth.
