What is the difference between full and partial dentures?

Full dentures replace all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw, while partial dentures replace only a few missing teeth. Partial dentures attach to the remaining natural teeth, while full dentures rest directly on the gums.

How long do dentures typically last?

Most dentures last between five and ten years with proper care. Over time, natural changes in the mouth may require adjustments or replacement to maintain a comfortable and secure fit.

Are dentures comfortable for daily use?

Yes, modern dentures are designed to be comfortable and natural-looking. Although there may be a short adjustment period, most patients adapt quickly and can wear them comfortably throughout the day.

How should dentures be cleaned and maintained?

Dentures should be removed and cleaned daily using a soft brush and a denture cleaning solution. They should also be soaked overnight in water or denture solution to keep them clean and prevent them from drying out.
