Why do we need to have dentures?
For special teeth, when the teeth are still intact and complete, the teeth will be able to bond and support each other better. Make sure the teeth are in the right place and not moved. However, when one tooth or many teeth are lost, the ability of the entire tooth to attach will no longer occur, causing very serious problems later if not handled properly such as:
- Jaw bone loss: The density of the jaw bone will continue to maintain and grow when stimulation is felt because this tooth is the place to cause stimulation when we eat and chew. Losing some teeth will cause this bone to gradually reduce its stimulation functions and no longer be able to withstand impact forces. Gradually the loss of this bone density will lead to jaw bone loss. If the tooth loss lasts a long time before the patient can fix it, a new bone implant will be required to fix it.
- Aging: The jaw bone also plays an important role in supporting and making the face more balanced. However, when teeth are lost, jaw bone loss occurs, causing the patient’s cheeks to shrink, facial skin to sag and have many wrinkles. In addition, losing teeth over a long period of time when chewing will also cause the jaw joints to shift, causing deformation or misalignment of the chin. Makes the face look disproportionate and lacks aesthetics.
- Causes incorrect pronunciation: The loss of some teeth, especially in the front teeth and incisors, will make the patient’s pronunciation no longer as accurate as before, and the voice may be easily distorted or windy. .
- Causes headaches: Teeth are also related to and have a certain impact on many nervous systems, tooth loss sometimes causes some front teeth to shift and move erratically, or the chewing force is not as good as before. In serious cases, the nervous system can be damaged, causing headaches, directly affecting the nerves connecting the two jawbones.
- Health effects: Not only does it affect the nervous system in the jawbone, tooth loss also creates negative external effects such as tooth loss making the patient feel more self-conscious, afraid to communicate and reluctant to communicate. That gradually withdraws, affecting the patient’s future psychology.
- Causes difficulty in cleaning and chewing: Each tooth plays an important role in chewing and crushing food easily. Unfortunately, some lost teeth will make the chewing process more difficult due to the Regular food needs to be crushed into smaller pieces before passing through the digestive system, which will affect the patient’s respiratory tract and health in the long run. In addition, tooth loss also makes it more difficult for patients to maintain oral hygiene as the alveolar bone gradually lowers, causing problems such as receding gums.
Techniques for making dentures
Nowadays, dentures are considered the most effective and optimal method to help overcome tooth loss and are used by many people. Accordingly, in dentistry, denture implantation is also divided into 3 different denture implantation techniques including:
Implant dentures using removable jaws
Reducing tooth implants using removable dentures is the most traditional method at dentists and is applied very often and widely to fill empty spaces on damaged gums. Removable dentures are composed of dentures and gum bases made of flexible plastic or metal ceramic materials that are very benign and safe for health. Removable dentures are made specifically for each case and then placed over the damaged teeth. With other removable dentures, you can actually remove or fill them in as needed without having to go to the dentist to have them done. This helps you be completely proactive and flexible in eating and taking better care of your teeth.
Dental implantation with porcelain bridge method
Porcelain dental bridges become an effective tooth restoration method that is not inferior to other methods. Accordingly, a porcelain dental bridge is a row of teeth and the two ends of this row of teeth will be placed on other teeth to ensure a stable, fixed position inside the tooth set to help fill in the gaps on lost teeth. This method is often used when you have lost one or a few teeth. And especially the two teeth near the gap must be very strong to be able to create pillars for the porcelain bridge to attach to to fix the remaining dentures.
Planting dentures using the implant method
Implants are considered the most advanced and newest technique today in overcoming tooth loss and restoring teeth when restoring the tooth root and crown. Accordingly, the implants will be implanted directly into the jawbone to hold the porcelain teeth in place. And porcelain teeth will have the same quality and hardness as real teeth. This method can be applied anywhere in the world with tooth loss and is not picky about the subject. Has long-term effectiveness and longevity equivalent to real teeth if properly cared for. However, this method is often more expensive and most effective than the above methods.
