All-On-4 Dental Implants: All the Essential Information You need

Removable dentures are dental prosthetics designed to replace missing teeth. They have become a popular solution due to their flexibility, affordability, and ability to meet the needs of diverse patients, particularly older adults or those with limited budgets.

Choosing removable dentures can be a complex decision. For dentists, understanding the technical aspects, clinical features, and patient expectations is essential for providing accurate recommendations. This not only ensures optimal treatment outcomes but also builds patient trust, a vital factor for the success of any prosthetic treatment plan.

Fixed vs. Removable Dentures

Structure and Fixation

Removable dentures are flexible prosthetic solutions with a base made from acrylic or flexible materials like Valplast®, secured with metal or resin clasps, or sometimes supported by implants (overdentures). These dentures are easy to remove, offering convenience and suitability for patients with extensive tooth loss, particularly seniors.

Removable dentures are commonly fabricated using acrylic or flexible materials such as Valplast®. The process involves a precise base design to ensure a comfortable fit and stability. Implant-supported removable dentures (overdentures) require coordination with Locator Abutments or Metal Housings to achieve secure attachment. However, the fabrication of removable dentures is generally simpler, faster, and well-suited for dental labs with standard production facilities.
