Denture

The denture is a removable prosthesis that partially or completely replaces natural teeth.
Depending on your dentition, the dental surgeon will offer you a complete or partial model.
The role of the complete resin denture is to replace all the teeth either on the top, bottom, or both. It should be noted that this type of complete dental prosthesis can move in patients with little bone relief in the jaw.
Partial denture with rigid metal frame is considered when only one or more teeth are missing. It is a removable but partial prosthesis, which means that it will be supported by the gums and the remaining teeth. The partial denture is attached with the help of hooks.
Removable or partial dental prosthesis is indicated in the event of a dental disruption (accidental, or following a disease: periodontitis, cavities), more particularly in the elderly patient. Removable dental prosthesis can be indicated in the event of a general health problem of the patient (heart disease), bone deficit.
Materials:

• Pink (acrylic) resin: The color imitates the natural gums. Complete dentures are almost exclusively made of acrylic; they are sometimes reinforced with other types of materials, such as fiberglass or a metal alloy.
• Metal alloy: The metal structure is very thin and lighter than the acrylic base, but more robust, so it often acts as a reinforcement to the acrylic base.
  Porcelain (ceramic
  If you have had dental extractions, a prosthesis adjustment 3 to 6 months after extraction is recommended following gingival loss during healing of the extraction sites.

The steps and deadlines:

After the setting in mouth:

• The first morning: remove them to rinse and brush them with clean water only, taking care to put them back in your mouth quickly.
• The second night: Sleep with The prostheses.
• The second morning: remove them again to rinse and brush them with clean water only, taking either to put them back in your mouth quickly.

Dentures can look strange at first and it is quite normal for patients to feel discomfort, such as increased saliva, tongue pain or cheeks. It takes two weeks to adjust, which is why dentists recommend keeping the prosthesis overnight.
