COSMETIC DENTURES
Types Of Cosmetic Denture:
There are two main types of Cosmetic Denture Available: –
1. Acrylic (or plastic) Cosmetic Dentures
2. Cobalt Chromium or Titanium Cosmetic dentures – These are advised when at least some teeth are present
Advantages Of Cobalt Chromium and Titanium Cosmetic Dentures:
– Better chewing (more stable; less movement of denture)
– Food more enjoyable (less coverage of the mouth)
– Stronger (metal is very hard, plastic can fracture)
– Lighter and thinner (plastic is more bulky)
– More comfortable
– More healthy (less gum coverage possible)
