Complete dentures (removable or implant-supported)
Complete removable dentures are used to replace all upper and lower teeth. They consist of acrylic resin teeth and false gums. Often a set of four to six implants is used to stabilize the dentures. You can discuss the shade, shape and alignment of the teeth with your dentist.
Stellite
Stellite dentures are a good choice wen implants aren’t an option for health, anatomical or budget reasons. They are typically partial dentures that replace several teeth on the lower or upper arches (or both using two stellite dentures).
These prostheses are secured to your remaining natural teeth with hooks. They consist of:
- A metal base with a minimum thickness of 2 mm
- A resin portion with the new false teeth
