Dentures come in many forms from removable partial dentures, which replace some of the teeth to complete dentures that replace all the teeth of the mouth. Dentures can now be secured in place by dental implants so that the common problems associated with traditional dentures and their handicaps can be overcome.
Alternatives to dentures are dental implants and bridges.
