Missing teeth have an effect on your speaking, eating and your appearance including your smile. If you have missing teeth, dentists in Markham may recommend getting full or partial dentures which take the place of natural teeth.
What are dentures?
Dentures are prosthetic devices designed to fill in gaps which have been created by missing permanent teeth. Once the dentures, partial or full, are in place, you’ll be able to speak, eat and smile normally. Dentures are constructed from a plastic base that holds the fabricated teeth. The base will match closely with your natural color of gum tissue and the prosthetic teeth will be made of either porcelain or a special dental plastic. Dentures will be fitted to your mouth and made specifically to fit the shape of your mouth. The Markham dentists will make an impression, or mold, of the inside of your mouth. This mold will be sent off to a lab which will make the dentures to fit your mouth and match the structure of your face to ensure a proper fit and maximum function.
