What are dentures

Dentures are a removable acrylic plate or metal frame holding one or more artificial teeth. They are a good treatment solution for replacing several teeth as they can be taken out to clean and are relatively easy to repair. However, dentures are not always the best solution for missing teeth. Since they aren’t fixed they may be loose and take take time to get used to. They can fracture or break and require diligent regular cleaning.
