A complete denture is a dental appliance that can be removed from the mouth and replaces all the lost teeth in the upper, lower, or both arches. It is created specifically to fit the wearer's mouth and can be made from a variety of materials, including acrylic, porcelain, or a combination of both. Complete dentures are typically used by patients who have lost all their teeth due to decay, gum disease, or injury. The denture base sits on the gums and is designed to look and function like natural teeth, allowing the wearer to speak, eat, and smile with confidence. Complete dentures require regular cleaning and maintenance to prevent oral health problems such as gum irritation, infection, and bad breath.
