Wheeling out the Dentures in South East London

Wheeling out the Dentures in South East London

18 / 07 / 2013

Considering the hammering they have taken in the press over the years, it would seem that dentures are making quite a remarkable recovery and seem to be back in vogue in south east London. When the dental implant came along, a lot of people in the dental world thought that it would signal the end of dentures; the irony of that is, is they have helped to make them as popular as any other method of recovering from tooth loss around. Today, dentures are sympathetic to the wearer: with the use of softer materials and better cements, people are turning to dentures again- it does help that they are far cheaper than the opposition as well. However, a lot of scientific work and study has gone into understanding how gum disease works and how it can be treated better, which means we are seeing fewer people having their teeth pulled out, and a massive trend towards the use of partial dentures: they again are softer, look more realistic than ever before and are easy to manage as well; you just pop them in and out with no fuss at all. So what about these implants then? Well for anyone wearing full dentures, all you have to do is have a handful of implants strategically positioned around the mouth, and with a customised denture, it locates onto each implant and then locks securely and tightly against the gums, and will only come out when you decide to take it out. Who would have ever thought it would be fun and safe to wear dentures!
