What does denture mean and what is denture?

Dentures that have been replaced to restore chewing function after tooth loss or extraction.

Dentures are dentures that are inserted to restore chewing, aesthetics, pronunciation and other functions after tooth loss or extraction.

Dentures, commonly known as dentures, come in many variety. According to whether the user can remove it by himself, it can be generally divided into two categories: removable dentures (removable dentures) and non-removable dentures (fixed dentures).

With the improvement of socio-economic level, there are more and more patients with dental implants. According to the Fourth National Oral Health Epidemiological Survey Report, the detection rate of dentures among 65-year-olds and 74-year-olds was removable dentures, fixed dentures, and dental implants.

Dentures (dentures) can restore chewing function, articulation and aesthetics, but if not properly cared for, they can affect oral health and overall health. Oral hygiene should be maintained even more after the restoration of the denture. Clean your natural teeth and dentures daily and visit a dental clinic or dental clinic regularly for dental check-ups.

Denture implantation is the placement of an implant (artificial tooth root) in the alveolar bone of the edentulous area of the mouth, and after the implant is viable, a restoration is made at the upper end to complete the restoration of the implant denture. It significantly improves the patient's chewing function and feels comfortable like a natural tooth.

Dentures are often referred to as "dentures". Just as "prosthetic legs" and "prosthetic limbs" are called "prosthetic limbs", "dentures" mean teeth that do their "duty" for human beings. Medically, it is a general term for restorations made after the loss of some or all of the upper or lower teeth.

There are two types of dentures: removable and fixed.

Fixed dentures (commonly known as "fixed dentures") cannot be removed by the patient, while removable dentures (commonly known as "removable dentures") can be easily removed and worn by the patient.

Classification of dentures:

1. Removable dentures: patients can remove dentures by themselves, which is suitable for the situation that most of the teeth are missing and there are few remaining teeth. The advantage is that the patient can remove and clean, and the burden on the remaining tooth is small, but there are also many inconveniences such as low chewing efficiency and the need for patients to remove and clean after meals.

2. Fixed dentures: use the healthy teeth on both sides of the missing teeth as support to fix the dentures in the oral cavity, which is suitable for a small number of missing teeth, intermittent missing teeth, and good health status of the remaining teeth. The advantages are that the fixed denture has high chewing efficiency, the patient is comfortable to wear, the foreign body sensation is small, and there is no need to take it off, and the disadvantage is that the healthy teeth on both sides of the missing teeth should be ground off part of the tooth tissue during the restoration.

Dentures mean: artificially manufactured teeth, inlaid dentures

Dentures are artificial teeth that replace missing natural teeth.

Dentures, also known as dentures, are artificial methods to restore the shape and function of teeth when there is a problem with the teeth in the mouth, which are divided into fixed dentures, removable dentures and implant dentures.

Fixed dentures are mainly a method of restoration for a single tooth when there is a tooth defect, or when there is a loss of individual teeth.

Removable dentures are used to restore dentures that are removed back and forth after a tooth is missing.

Dental implants are mainly a method of placing implant nails in the jaw bone and performing a crown restoration above the missing teeth.

At present, denture restoration is a very common measure and is widely used.

Denture Knowledge:

Severe periodontal disease, tooth decay, and trauma can cause partial or even complete loss of the dentition of the Qi plexus.

After the loss of teeth, it can affect the face, pronunciation, chewing function, increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, and if it is not repaired in time, the adjacent teeth can also be tilted and displaced, and the jaw teeth will be elongated, so that the bite is disordered.

Partial dentition is missing and can be repaired with fixed or removable dentures, and with a full denture (total denture) in the case of total edentulism. Fixed dentures are usually used to repair high double incisors or 1 or 2 posterior teeth, and removable dentures can be used to restore no matter how many teeth are missing.

The fixed denture is completely burdened by the abutment, that is, the crown or inlay on the abutment is the bridge base, and the missing tooth area is the bridge, and the whole is cemented on the abutment, so the abutment must be strong. Removable dentures can come in several forms.

Generally, a metal snap ring is placed on the remaining teeth to make the denture retention not fall off, and the base is placed on the alveolar mucosa of the edentulous area, and there is also a form of retaining the ember.

There is also a kind of removable denture called modified double crown, which is first repaired with a crown on the abutment tooth, and a removable denture with a double crown is worn on it, so the abutment tooth should also be stronger or need to be strengthened ** (such as partial tooth resection, double crown, etc.), so that the force is dispersed (use more abutments, increase the base area).

When making fixed dentures, the abutment needs to be ground out more in order to make the restoration and the abutment tightly fit, so as not to cause secondary caries.

Removable dentures require minimal molars, especially those called segmental dentures, which make full use of abutment inverts and soft tissue inverts for retention. However, the crown shape of the remaining teeth should also be modified to eliminate unfavorable forces and avoid biting the cheeks and tongue.

Fixed dentures are small in size, less foreign body sensation, easy for patients to adapt, and high chewing efficiency.

The foreign body sensation of removable dentures is more obvious, and it is necessary to go through the adaptation stage, and pay attention to taking off and cleaning after meals. The more missing teeth, the larger the dentures, the fewer teeth supported, and the less efficient it is to chew.

Therefore, the tooth should not be easily extracted, and measures should be taken to preserve the diseased tooth. The more the teeth are preserved, the more the denture bearing can be dispersed, and the chewing efficiency will be better restored, and it can be more durable.

Meaning of dentures: artificially manufactured teeth, inlaid dentures.

At this point, it is clear that it is much easier to obtain good edge closure in the maxillary denture than in the lower jaw due to the active movement of the edge of the mandibular denture, especially the lingual soft tissue.

Synonyms of denturesTooth. Pinyin] [ yì chǐ ].

Explanation] Organs used by humans and higher animals to chew food. It is a hard tissue protrusion that is fixed to the alveolar process of the upper and lower jawbone. The structure of teeth can be divided into enamel, dentine, and cementum formed by hard tissue; and the pulp that is wrapped in the center of the hard tissue and belongs to the soft tissue.

Teeth erupt twice in a person's lifetime. The first eruption is a baby tooth. The permanent teeth that erupt again are the permanent teeth.

Dentures are artificially created dentures designed to replace missing teeth and restore chewing function. It is made up of dentin in and above the gums and is often used to restore missing teeth.

A denture is a type of denture made by a dentist using artificial materials to replace missing natural teeth and restore chewing function. It is designed to resemble real teeth, with a natural look and a comfortable chewing feel. Dentures are widely used in the field of prosthodontics to provide patients with aesthetically pleasing, comfortable and functional replacement teeth.

Dentures are teeth made of artificial material that are used to fill gaps in missing teeth. Through measurement and impression techniques, dentists can help patients make right-sized dentures. Depending on the patient's condition, full dentures or partial dentures can be chosen to restore missing teeth.

Full dentures are used in the case of complete tooth loss, while partial dentures are used in cases where only part of the tooth is missing.

The first step in making a denture is to prepare the teeth and gums. The dentist will examine the patient's mouth and perform treatments such as teeth cleaning and gum restoration as needed. Dentists use dimensional measuring tools and impression techniques to ensure that the denture fits the patient's oral structure and bite.

In the process of making dentures, technicians use durable materials such as porcelain, metal, or resin to create the frame and teeth of the dentures.

The finished denture will be fitted into the patient's mouth and the necessary adjustments will be made to ensure a proper bite and comfort. Dentures not only provide the ability to ingest food, but they also help improve pronunciation and maintain the stability of facial structure. In addition, dentures can also improve self-confidence and social comfort, allowing them to regain a natural smile and social activities.

The meaning and application of dentures

1. Teeth cleaning and gum preparation: Before installing dentures, the dentist will clean the teeth to ensure oral hygiene. The dentist will also perform periodontal treatment or other oral ** if needed to ensure healthy gums.

2. Blind imaging and measurement: Dentists will use X-rays, oral scans or impressions and other techniques to image and measure oral structures. This data will be used to create dentures that match the characteristics of the patient's mouth.

3. Denture making: According to the patient's data and needs, the dentist will cooperate with the technician to make the denture. The materials of dentures usually include resin, ceramic, or metal, depending on the patient's oral condition and needs.
