In cases where one tooth or several are already lost and had to be removed, an option such as removable dentures is possible. They are divided into groups and subgroups: partial, full and semi-removable. Partial are clasp, plate and nylon. Almost all removable dentures have similar elements: a base or basis on the alveolar process with additional attachment and a platform on which artificial teeth are placed.
All artificial teeth are very wear-resistant and aesthetically look good, as they are made according to all modern technologies. With good and proper care, removable dentures will last a long time, they do not change their original appearance, density and color. In addition, when choosing a prosthesis for a patient, his personal wishes and characteristic features of the oral cavity are taken into account.

Dentures made of plastic must be cleaned, as the color will change and plaque will appear on the surface. They need to be washed every day, an ideal option would be after each meal.
If the dentures are not properly looked after, an inflammatory process may occur in the oral cavity. What to choose for their cleaning, everyone decides for himself, depending on the individual characteristics of the acidity of the stomach, diet, medications and bad habits.
Partial dentures are used when one or a pair of teeth is lost. They are made of plastic completely, with the exception of fastening locks. This prosthesis will be lightweight and inexpensive. It is especially widely used when temporary prosthetics are performed. Using special systems, prostheses can be fixed without fastening hooks, they will not be visible visually. Such systems are called attachments.
Nowadays, removable dentures are made from acrylic, nylon, polyurethane and other materials, with their help they achieve a natural look. This allows the prosthesis to be of good quality at a low price.
