Types of dentures
If you need dentures in The Hague, contact our dental office. We will find the most suitable option for you. Dentures come in two types: removable and partial dentures. Dentures also differ in the way they are attached. Your dentist will determine which type is most appropriate for you during your individual consultation.
Fully removable dentures
These dentures are used for complete tooth loss. Complete lower and upper dentures are made of plastic and nylon. These are modern, non-toxic materials with high aesthetic value. The colors and shape of the dentures are always chosen individually. We recommend holding them in place for the first few days to avoid discomfort with these dentures. This allows us to identify pressure points and correct the shape. Then it is recommended to take off these dentures at night and clean them daily with special products.
Conditional removable prostheses
These dentures do not need to be removed every night. They are used when one or more chewing teeth are missing. Fixed dentures are attached with glue or cement or with metal brackets that fit over the supporting teeth.
Fixation of dentures
Dental implants at INTAN;
telescopic attachment system.
Unlike plate dentures, conditional dentures are not held in place by a vacuum between the plate and the gingiva, but by various fixation devices. They can be removed for cleaning, but are more stable and comfortable to use.
