A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth and the adjacent tissue. Complete dentures replace all the teeth. A conventional denture is placed about a month after the teeth are removed, to allow proper healing; an immediate denture is placed as soon as the teeth come out.
Candidates for complete dentures have lost most or all of their teeth. A denture improves chewing and speech, supports the facial muscles, and makes a considerable difference to facial appearance.
Even with full dentures you still need to look after your mouth. Brush your gums, tongue and palate every morning with a soft brush before putting the dentures in. Remove and brush the denture daily using products made for the job. Never sterilise it with boiling water — it will warp. When not in use, keep it in a cleanser solution or water, in the same safe place each time.
