Your nutrition is affected because you\u2019re no longer able to properly chew your food. This limits the foods you can eat and makes digestion more challenging. Your confidence and self-esteem are affected when you\u2019re missing multiple teeth. You may feel embarrassed and self-conscious about smiling and talking to people. Well, the good news is there are options for replacing multiple missing teeth, and there is no case that is hopeless. Your Putnam dentist explains your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webmd.com\/oral-health\/dental-health-dentures\" target=\"_blank\">options<\/a>.\r\n\r\n<!--more-->\r\n<h3>What is a Partial Denture?<\/h3>\r\nAlso known as a partial, this removable appliance is a good option for those who still retain some of their own teeth. It snaps into place like a retainer and anchors to your existing teeth with metal clasps. Your partial fills in the gaps with prosthetic teeth that are custom designed to match your existing teeth and complement your smile.\r\n<h3>What is a Full Denture?<\/h3>\r\nA denture is also a removable appliance that is designed to replace a full arch of teeth. Your denture will stay in place through suction and a snug fit, or dental adhesives. While there is a bit of a learning curve when you\u2019re eating and talking with your dentures at first, you\u2019ll certainly appreciate how they immediately complete your smile and restore your confidence.\r\n<h3>What are Implant Supported Dentures?<\/h3>\r\nDental implants are now being used to help support dentures, providing a more secure fit. Two dental implants are placed both on your upper and lower jawbones, and after the appropriate amount of healing time, your denture can snap into your implants creating a foundation that provides better support.\r\n\r\nWith implant supported dentures you\u2019ll never have to worry about your dentures slipping or moving while you talk or chew. They can still be removed for cleaning and sleeping at night. Implants are giving denture wearers options they never had in the past.\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019re looking for dentures in Putnam, CT look no further than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quietcornerdental.com\/dentures.html\">Dr. Walter McGinn and Dr. Carolyn McGinn<\/a>.
