Can I still have dentures when all my teeth have fallen out?

Yes, dentures are called dentures in medicine, which can be roughly divided into two categories, namely movable dentures and fixed dentures. Movable dentures are dentures that can be taken and worn at any time, while fixed dentures cannot be taken out of the mouth at will after installation.

The advantage of removable denture is that it can be taken and cleaned freely, which is beneficial to oral hygiene; There is no need to excessively grind adjacent teeth, which will obviously damage adjacent teeth; The price is also cheaper. It is especially suitable for people who can't make fixed dentures, have a large area of missing teeth and have atrophied alveolar bones, but its aesthetics, comfort and stability are worse than fixed dentures.

Fixed denture is beautiful, stable, comfortable, small in size, and can afford chewing and pronunciation functions. However, traditional fixed dentures need to slightly grind the teeth that provide retention. If healthy adjacent teeth are used to provide support, the strongest enamel layer of healthy teeth will be destroyed, and there is a risk of pulpitis in the later stage. When inferior materials are selected for porcelain crown and bottom layer, gums will turn black.

Special fixed denture-dental implant is to implant an implant as an artificial root in the jaw with missing teeth. Its greatest advantage is that it does not harm the health of adjacent teeth. Compared with removable denture and conventional fixed denture, it is more difficult, more risky, more restrictive and has a long treatment cycle, which requires higher health status of alveolar bone in the missing part. It is especially suitable for people with tooth loss who can support their economic ability and have good alveolar bone health.
