Acrylic Dentures North Macedonia

A denture, or a complete denture as it is often called, is an appliance that is inserted in the mouth, replaces natural teeth and provides support for the cheeks and lips. Most dentures are made of acrylic and can be fabricated two different ways. A conventional denture is made after all teeth have been extracted and the tissues (gums) have healed.An immediate denture is fabricated and inserted immediately after the teeth are extracted and the tissues are allowed to heal under the denture.An upper denture has acrylic, usually flesh colored, which covers the palate (roof of the mouth).A lower denture is shaped like a horseshoe to leave room for the tongue.The teeth are made of plastic or porcelain. Dentures can be fabricated to fit over endodontically treated teeth and a complete denture can be attached to dental implants to allow for a more secure fit of the appliance. Dentures over a normal course of time will wear and need to be replaced or relined in order to keep the jaw alignment normal. The alignment will slowly change as the bone and gum ridges recede or shrink due to the extraction of the teeth. Regular dental examinations are still important for the denture wearer so that the oral tissues can be checked for disease or change.

Model Cast Dentures are manufactured from high strength dental alloy which makes them very robust, very hard to brake, and their clasps fit to the tooth very precisely, so the retention they provide is far better than acrylic ones. They can be made much thinner than acrylic RPD’s, so that greatly increase patients comfort. Also, the fact that their body is made of metal, their heat transfer properties are much greater than acrylic RPD’s, so patient will enjoy improved sensation in the process of feeding. Acrylic RPD’s act as a heat isolator, so patients often complain that they can’t feel the temperature of food as they normally would. With model cast dentures, heat transfer is almost instant because the metal used for their production has excellent heat transfer properties. Their body is polished to high gloss finish and because of that they are much easier to clean and they are far less susceptible to building up dental stone or plaque, therefore very good oral hygiene is achieved. Downside is that their clasps are visible, and also during constant usage (removing and inserting), their clasps make friction to the holding tooth, so the tooth enamel can be damaged which can lead to tooth loss in later stages. They proved to be very reliable, but they are considered as outdated because a new type of RPD’s has emerged called Model Cast Dentures with Attachments. They have all the advantages of the classical model cast dentures and none of their down sides.
