Type of Denture we offer
When you are ready to replace missing teeth you have a number of potential solutions available, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Replacing your missing teeth is a big decision and it is important to consider several factors.
You don’t have to make this decision alone. Your dentist can help you assess the choices in light of your clinical needs, personal preferences and financial considerations and help you determine which one is best for you.
Valplast® flexible partials
Patients looking for a comfortable alternative to traditional dentures could be interested in Flexible dentures, available from Dental Lounge. Using advanced technology to fit around the shape of teeth and gums upon insertion, the flexible denture can be used when there is not enough bone for fitting dental implants to replace missing teeth.
The flexible denture works by flexing into position, not needing the use of metal clasping mechanisms to hold the dentures in place. Individuals with irregularities in the shape of their mouth could benefit greatly from the treatment and experience boost to their self-confidence as a result.
What are Flexible Dentures?
Flexible dentures could be the perfect solution for an individual who has lost one or more of their natural teeth as a result of gum disease, dental infection or a sporting injury. Using this method your Dental Lounge professional can utilise a partial denture to replace missing teeth and get the smile back to its natural best.
The replacement of missing teeth can have a profound effect on the appearance and overall wellbeing of an individual. Without facial support from a denture following the removal of teeth, the face can often sag, which could make individuals appear older than they actually are. Also, the fixture of dentures can ensure oral health is maintained, as those with multiple missing teeth can often experience fracture or wear of the remaining teeth.
In addition, dentures can make it much easier for members of the public to carry out a number of tasks people usually take for granted, such as eating and speaking without difficulty.
What Are The Advantages of Flexible Dentures?
Patients who wear flexible dentures are extremely unlikely to experience any pain or discomfort from the fixture, due to the lack of metal clasps or adhesive. Using this form of treatment, individuals are able to enjoy increased retention as a result of the custom-fitted design.
In addition, flexible dentures provide a more cosmetic solution for people by being more aesthetically pleasing than their traditional counterparts. The material used to create the fixture is transparent and blends in with the natural gum colour in the mouth. The metal clasps found in traditional dentures are replaced with tooth coloured clasps in flexible dentures.
The simple nature of the accessory means it can be quickly manufactured, which is an ideal solution for dental patients. The fact that there are a reduced number of components used means that there will be a significantly shorter waiting time.
Dental patients who are unable to receive alternative types of dentures as a result of irregularities concerning their mouth shape could benefit greatly from the flexible fitting due to the fact it adjusts to each individual.
Patients do not need to worry about the fixture coming loose or unclear speech as a result of the alien object because of the tight-fitting nature of the appliance.
What Are Valplast Dentures?
Valplast is a flexible resin-based denture that is ideal for use as a partial denture as it is unbreakable in use. The biocompatible nylon thermoplastic denture contains physical and aesthetic properties to allow a patient’s natural gum tissue colour to appear through the material, which makes it almost invisible to the human eye.
Chrome Dentures
Light Alloy Metal dentures are a tooth substitute option for one or more missing teeth, providing continued oral function and preservation of facial form.
Light Alloy Metal are normally stabilised in the mouth by means of clasps and tooth rests to help prevent shifting and oral irritation. Made for strength and durability, wearers soon adjust to proper fitting light alloy dentures that support existing teeth.
What Are Light Alloy Metal Dentures?
Not all Light Alloy metal is cold and unsightly. They are dentures are made of medically-approved cobalt chrome alloy or a hybrid of cobalt chrome alloy and nylon resin.
People with allergies may benefit from Light Alloy metal dentures that are hypo-allergenic. Thus reducing the chance of allergic reaction. People with an allergy to any metals should discuss this with your dental professional prior to treatment.
Advanced dentistry techniques enable custom-design of Light Alloy metal so that they are made to fit the patient’s mouth precisely. This will lower the risk of irritation in the mouth. Patients benefit from snug-fitting dentures designed just for their needs.
Patients can benefit from discreet and comfortable Light Alloy Metal dentures made by Smiles And More. These include options to have tooth-coloured metal clips or clasps, for better denture stability and retention. Having these dentures and the most natural-looking true-to-life denture teeth gives patients added confidence.
Why Light Alloy Metal Dentures?
Light Alloy Metal dentures are an alternative to acrylic plastic dentures that fit the mouth and palate. Smaller and not palate-covering, Light Alloy Metal dentures allow individuals to enjoy the flavours of their foods and communicate as normal, without denture bulk impeding these functions.
Smiles And More Light Alloy Metal dentures are strong and less likely to fracture, since they are not as fragile as their counterparts. Although the mouth changes shape, Light Alloy Metal dentures have enough give without going out of shape. Your Smiles And More Dental Professional will monitor the wear of your Light Alloy Metal dentures as part of regular dental check-ups.
Patients are given several options to replace missing teeth, such as dentures made from blended materials. Hybrid dentures can be made from a combination of Light Alloy Metal and plastic, or Light Alloy Metal and nylon resin. We will ensure proper denture fit for comfort during wear. Presence of Light Alloy Metal material in the fabrication gives them strength and resilience. These dentures give patients comfortable teeth replacement with lasting results.
The cost of Light Alloy Metal depends on the materials they are made with or combined with. Options such as acrylic plastic can be economical, but not as long-lasting. We discuss affordability with patients and give costs up front, so that patients know what to expect. Investing in metal dentures may be a more cost-effective choice in the long run.
As with all partial dentures, you will be required to have a consultation with a qualified dentist who will create a prescription/treatment plan for you. Once this has been done you return to Smiles & More for a consultation where we can discuss with you your options for materials and types of denture.
If you are interested in Light Alloy Metal dentures or any other Dentures then please feel free to Contact Us and we will be happy to advise you on the best way to proceed and can also recommend qualified dentists where required if you don’t currently have one.
