Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore the appearance and function of the mouth. They are commonly recommended for patients who have lost multiple teeth due to decay, gum disease, injury, or aging. Dentures help improve chewing ability, support facial structure, and enhance overall confidence by restoring a natural-looking smile.

There are two main types of dentures: complete dentures and partial dentures. Complete dentures are used when all teeth in the upper or lower jaw are missing, while partial dentures are designed for patients who still have some natural teeth remaining. Partial dentures are typically supported by the remaining teeth using special clasps or attachments.
