What Are Natural Looking Dentures?
Natural-looking dentures are removable artificial teeth constructed to look like your real teeth. These beautiful dentures have a natural appearance in all light conditions. Dentures are an excellent treatment option if you are suffering from tooth loss, cavities, or gum disease. They are also a great alternative to dental implants.
The progress and advent of technology in dentistry have made it easy for full and partial dentures to look as natural as your real teeth. A properly fitted set of dentures gives you a comfortable and natural smile.
Can You Get Realistic Looking Dentures?
Yes, you can get realistic-looking dentures. The search for the perfect full denture is not an easy journey, but cosmetic dentistry can play a role here – Cosmetic Dentures. Cosmetic dentures, by nature, look more like natural teeth. However, they are more costly than traditional dentures.
With cosmetic dentures, you have no fear of sores from ill-fitting, slipping, or any form of social awkwardness resulting from the false teeth. They feel more natural than other denture options and aid in chewing and speaking well.
Just like every other denture, cosmetic dentures have downsides. They need to be removed and regularly cleaned, and you may experience bone loss with time.
Because of these downsides and other unknown downsides, the progress in dentistry has upgraded cosmetic dentures to a newer procedure- a hybrid prosthesis. The hybrid prosthesis is a permanent implant denture with better advantages than other denture options.
How Can I Get Natural Looking Dentures?
Communicating your desires to your dentist to obtain natural-looking dentures is best. Your dentist accurately measures your mouth and gums at your appointment to ensure the teeth replacement fits your facial structure. Here is a three-step process for the procedure.
The Fit
Ensuring you get the right fit is the first step to your dentures looking natural. Your dentist or prosthetist will ensure your dentures fit correctly. Some patients take time to adjust, while others adapt quickly to the dentures. Those who take time to adjust to dentures experience discomfort. The discomfort is natural as the dentures are new; it will take time to change. Ensure your dentist gives you the right fit according to your gum and mouth measurements.
Choosing the Right Shade
The colour and shade of your dentures play a massive role in determining if your dentures are natural looking. While going to your dental clinic, it is best to have a clear picture of the colour of dentures you want, or perhaps, you can go with a friend for their opinion. Your dentist can also make your denture bases to match your gums’ colour to help achieve natural-looking dentures.
While choosing the correct shade, you may be tempted to go for the dazzling white; this may not be a good idea. If you are going for partial dentures, go for a colour that looks like your natural teeth, but if you’re going for complete dentures, go for a natural-looking shade.
Maintaining Your Dentures
Just like natural teeth, dentures are prone to stains, so caring for them daily can help keep you confident in showing that smile. Your dentist will give you the best cleaning methods and products for dentures. A product like ‘Poligrip’, a false teeth cleanser, is essential in keeping your dentures clean.
How Much Do Dentures Cost?
The cost of dentures varies in Australia. There exist some affordable dentures, and dentures are expensive. The National Dental Fee Survey 2017 stated that conventional upper or lower acrylic dentures could cost up to $2000. Cosmetic dentures cost up to $5000 and above.
