Full plastic or acrylic dentures are the most basic type of denture. They are simple to construct and affordable.
However, in some situations, they may not stay in your mouth as well as you would like. If done on your upper jaw, it can also cover the roof of your mouth, and affect your taste slightly.
Flexible dentures adapt and gain support from neighbouring teeth to enable a denture that is able to retain well in your mouth.
Cobalt-chrome dentures use metal to reinforce their plastic or acrylic base and gain support from neighbouring teeth. The denture’s strength, stability and retention in your mouth is greatly enhanced.
This is especially useful for lower dentures which are likely to be displaced by your tongue, and for upper dentures to cover less of the roof of your mouth to enable you to enhance the taste of food.
However, cobalt-chrome dentures tend to be costly due to the stellar quality of materials used and its complex manufacturing process.
Once your denture has been fitted, you will be provided instructions on how to look after your mouth and novel denture.
