Most people want to have an attractive smile and they
normally choose dentures to make it happen. These people also want to retain
their ability to chew food in normal way. The dentures available today can
provide the appearance of a typical smile. However, when they shift or slip,
they are not considered as dentures anymore. Most of the wearers of dentures
expect to have the same smile when they replace missing their missing teeth.
This is due to the fact that missing teeth can affect the smile and looks of
the person.
Dentures are good when it comes to immediate replacement of
missing teeth. However, they cannot address the problem with bone loss since
they are removable only. They are not capable of replacing the roots of the
teeth that are missing and anchored in the jawbone. Deterioration and shrinking
occurs to the jawbone without the tooth root in place. Furthermore, dentures
will be loose in the long run even if they are perfectly fitted in the
beginning.
