When replacing missing teeth, a distinction is made between full dentures, toothless jaws and partial dentures (individual teeth are still preserved and necessary as supporting supports).

The full denture:
Total dentures are usually made of plastic and attach themselves to the mucous membrane due to the design of the edges. Since the jaw changes, regular relines are usually necessary. For allergy sufferers, there are so-called monomer-free plastics that are either thermoplastic or made from plastics with a low monomer content. The teeth used can still be characterized aesthetically. This is also possible with the denture plastic, in the area of the tooth necks, by inserting colored pigments.

The partial denture:
Partial dentures, also called model cast dentures, are made of chrome-cobalt-molybdenum alloys. A metal bracket encloses the remaining teeth that serve as holding elements and are necessary. The disadvantage is that the retaining tooth can be damaged by the rubbing action of the metal clip. The teeth to be replaced are incorporated into a so-called plastic saddle. The model cast prosthesis is the standard treatment.

The combination prosthesis:
A part or all of the teeth that are still preserved are crowned in order to attach holding elements, so-called attachments, bolts or telescopic crowns. This ensures a firm hold. The easy removal of the dentures enables good cleaning and hygiene. The firm hold of the prosthesis can be readjusted by activating the attachment parts. In addition, telescopic prostheses can be expanded even after years, possibly up to a full prosthesis. For combination work that can be viewed as a high-quality restoration, particular attention is paid to individuality and aesthetics.
