The loss of even one tooth in a row can lead to serious negative consequences for the health of the oral cavity as a whole, so it is necessary to solve the problem and restore lost dental units immediately. To restore lost teeth, modern dentistry offers different types of procedures - prosthetics and implantation. The greatest demand among patients is for more affordable prosthetics, which can involve both fixed and removable types of dentures.
In terms of durability and strength of fixation, the best option would be fixed dentures, but their installation is not always possible, and then removable dentures can help restore the beauty of your smile. However, such orthodontic structures are available in a wide range, and sometimes the patient finds it difficult to choose a specific type of product for prosthetics. This article is designed to help you find out all the useful details about removable dentures, and we will start with a detailed overview of all existing types of removable dentures.
Removable dentures: definition and classification
Orthodontic products for prosthetics can be either removable or non-removable. The key difference between the designs is that by choosing a removable denture, you can always either remove or put it on without the help of a specialist. Removable dentures have their own gradation into individual varieties, which is important to get acquainted with - this will help you make the right choice of a specific type of product. First of all, you should know that there are separate types of removable dentures for complete and single restoration.
How are selection and installation carried out?
- Stage I: diagnosis. An InWhite Medical orthopedist will conduct an examination and thorough examination of the bite, including making diagnostic impressions and models.
- Stage II: modeling. The doctor plans your future smile using the modern computer program Digital Smile Designe. The shade of the dentures is individually selected according to the VITA scale. Already at this stage you will see the result on the computer screen - your ideal smile with new teeth.
- Stage III: implantation. Fixed dentures in the case of complete absence of teeth are fixed on at least 4 implants. Before the operation, bone grafting is performed to restore the normal volume of the jaw bone. The implantation itself takes place with minimal trauma. The full healing period of implants is 4-6 months.
- Stage IV: production of the prosthesis. When the implants have settled into the jaw, the doctor will install a former to the correct gum line and once again take individual impressions. Based on them, the laboratory will produce a prosthesis that is ideal for you. The orthopedist will securely fix it on the implants.
InWhite Medical uses implants from the world's top manufacturers - Nobel, Astra Tech, Dentium. Implantation takes place according to international dental protocols. The operations are performed by experienced implant surgeons.
Dentures for restoration with complete edentia
Complete restoration of the dentition is necessary when all teeth have been lost and a complete removable denture is used for it, which allows you to effectively solve the problem of tooth loss, but keep in mind that such designs do not differ in reliability and long useful life, and especially the so-called soft orthodontic products - from plastic or nylon.
The rapid wear of the prosthesis is explained by the fact that with a complete restoration it is not possible to achieve coordinated work of the masticatory muscles: the main pressure will be exerted on the mucous and gingival part of the oral cavity and cause a decrease in the natural volume of the tissues of the jaw joint. As a result of this effect, the height of the gums will gradually decrease, and this process will ultimately lead to the fact that the old prosthesis simply will not stay on the installation bed. Moreover, the incorrect position of the removable denture in the mouth will provoke manifestations of pain when eating or actively talking.
Full removable orthodontic products are not the best option for restoring lost teeth because they cannot be properly fixed in the oral cavity and, especially, in the lower jaw area. Even the use of special adhesive gels will not give you a guarantee that the removable denture will not fall out of its place at the most inopportune moment. In such cases, dentists advise not to save money and initially carry out restoration with removable dentures on implants, which we will discuss in detail below.
USEFUL FACT: Removable dentures do not stop the process of bone tissue atrophy and, on the contrary, accelerate its progress. As the bone volume decreases, the denture will no longer stay in place and will require replacement. This is another reason why it is recommended to replace a removable orthopedic structure with a non-removable product as quickly as possible.
Basal implantation
This method comes to the rescue when the patient’s oral cavity does not have the conditions for classical dental implantation - this is a high degree of thinning of the bone tissue and the impossibility of bone grafting. Implants are placed in the basal bone of the jaw, which is largely free from atrophy. Such implants are individually selected depending on the size of the bone and its quality. Metal roots are attached at a certain angle, deep into the bone. The installation of implants and prosthetics takes one week.
There is no need to talk about aesthetics in this case; basal implantation is used if there are no other options for restoring teeth.
The main advantages of basal implantation are lower cost, the possibility of implantation even in the absence of alveolar bone, no need to build up atrophied bone, low cost and short treatment time.
The disadvantages of basal implantation are poor aesthetics and the impossibility of installing a single implant. In addition, if the doctor acts ineptly, there is a risk of harming the patient more than helping him. The qualifications of the doctor play a decisive role when choosing this method of prosthetics.
Removable dentures for partial dentures
If the patient has preserved teeth in the rows and these units are absolutely healthy, for restoration it is optimal to select one of the existing types of removable orthodontic systems for partial dentures.
In partial prosthetics, dentists use structures equipped with a special type of fastener - clasps. At their core, clasps are miniature locks that are attached to the jaw. The elements are made from fairly strong metal wire, which guarantees reliable fixation of the removable denture.
It is important to understand that partial dentures are only possible if there are units in the dentition that can be used as support for the installation of a removable denture. Another important nuance that must be taken into account when selecting a prosthesis for restoration with a single edentia is that not all types of structures are aesthetic in appearance and therefore they are not recommended for installation in the smile area.
Classification of removable dentures in dentistry is also carried out according to the material of their production. The material used to make an orthodontic product is one of the key criteria for the proper selection of a removable denture, since such important indicators as the comfort of use of the structure, its reliability and durability depend on it. Below we will consider in detail all types of removable dentures based on the material used.
Structural materials in prosthetics
A modern dentist has a sufficient amount of materials for making dentures in his arsenal.
In modern prosthetics, materials such as: Plastic are used. Used for the manufacture of temporary crowns, and removable acrylic and nylon structures. Plastic products do not last long, so they will need to be replaced after a while.
Metal. Gold-containing and cobalt-chromium alloys are widely used. Metal crown frames and clasp dentures are very common.
Zirconium. Zirconium oxide and dioxide are ideal materials for restoring dentition in the chewing area. The ceramic coating of zirconium crowns gives the product a natural shine.
Ceramics. This material is valued for its properties that are as close as possible to natural tooth enamel. For ceramic products, you can easily choose the desired shade. The main disadvantage of ceramics was previously considered to be low strength, but with the beginning of the use of sodium disilicate in prosthetics, this parameter improved. A good example of the use of ceramics is E-Max crowns.
Which dental prosthetics is better and cheaper is a question that only his attending physician can answer for each patient. Much depends on the location of installation - anterior or chewing teeth, the level of qualifications of the specialist and the nuances of a specific clinical situation.
Plastic or acrylic removable dentures
Acrylic or plastic removable dentures are inexpensive and easy to manufacture and use. For their production, a special type of acrylic plastic is used, characterized by increased characteristics of strength, hygiene and hypoallergenicity. The product is fixed to the jaw with soft valves, which are more colloquially referred to as “suction cups”. Naturally, the quality of fixation leaves much to be desired - the soft fastening element does not ensure reliable adhesion of the structure and tissues of the oral cavity.
If you have chosen a removable prosthesis with valves, be sure to make sure of the quality of its manufacture. This can be done using a simple test: having installed the denture in your mouth, try to bite something with it. If you feel air escaping from under the removable denture, it means it is made with high quality and will be comfortable to use.
An acrylic prosthesis will not cause pain during use if its base fits tightly to the gums. Otherwise, the chewing load will be placed on the soft tissues, which will cause a process of gradual atrophy and then deformation of the orthodontic structure itself.
Expert advice: Order the production of an acrylic removable denture with an individual impression tray - this will guarantee a tight fit of the structure to the tissues of the jaw and ensure its most reliable fixation on the jaw.
The advantages of removable acrylic dentures include the following qualities:
- The design is manufactured quickly and simply, which makes its cost as affordable as possible for patients.
- Acrylic removable dentures are easily repaired and restored if broken or damaged.
However, acrylic products also have a number of disadvantages, which are important to study before choosing this type of removable dentures. Professionals call the main disadvantage of plastic structures the fact that when installed in the oral cavity, the base of a removable denture will block the palate and this often causes such undesirable consequences as diction disorders and a decrease in the natural sensitivity of taste buds.
Removable acrylic dentures cannot be used for prosthetics in the lower jaw area, since there is no way to firmly fix the structure on the gums. Without reliable fixation, there is a risk that the prosthesis will fall out during eating or active dialogue. Inexpensive removable dentures made of acrylic do not differ in durability. The product will have to be replaced with a new one every two to three years, since plastic is a material prone to deformation. The useful life of a removable acrylic prosthesis may be shorter in situations where the process of reducing the volume of bone tissue in a patient occurs at an accelerated pace.
If we talk about the exact cost of the service for the manufacture and installation of a plastic prosthesis, it will depend on the type of product and the need for additional procedures before prosthetics.

What materials are such a prosthesis made of?
Makarova O.A. (08/21/2020 at 10:17 pm) Reply to comment
- The artificial base and gingival edge of the prosthesis are usually made of acrylic, but they are also made of nylon, silicone, polyurethane, and non-monomer acrylic resins. Fastening elements can be made from the base material that makes up the base of the prosthesis, but for strength and greater wear resistance they are often made from medical metal alloys. As for artificial teeth, they are made of plastic, metal-plastic, ceramic and metal-ceramic, and zirconium dioxide. That is, the choice is very wide and actually depends primarily on the type of prosthesis you choose (removable or implant-supported).

Thanks for such a wonderful article. Tell me, what do you think, with very problematic and regularly inflamed gums, which option should you pay attention to first? The area for prosthetics is large, but I don’t want removable dentures.
Marina A. (09.23.2020 at 09:18) Reply to comment
Please tell me, my mother wants to install such a prosthesis, but I have heard that they are not reliable, they can fly out and wobble. In this case, there will be severe discomfort, is that true?
Elena (09/23/2020 at 01:01 pm) Reply to comment
And I heard that fixing dentures with cream, firstly, is not very reliable, and secondly, with prolonged use it can be dangerous. What creams should I use to ensure safety?

If a removable denture was installed not so long ago, you are wondering how it is fixed, what is the covering structure? How much will it cost to fix removable covering systems on implants?
Oleg (09.23.2020 at 14:30) Reply to comment
Dentures were placed on the upper jaw. It took me a long time to get used to it, they pressed and rubbed. The gums were inflamed. I went many times for correction. Probably in a couple of months I began to wear them fully, but they began to fall off while eating. My dentist recommended Mostaden Twins Tech cream to me. It easily attaches to wet dentures. Does not change the taste of food and drinks. There is a pleasant mint taste in the mouth. Has a secure hold for up to 12 hours. Prevents food from penetrating under the denture. I began to fully wear the prosthesis without fear that it would fall out while eating or while talking.

Good afternoon Can you please tell me how long it will take to install dentures on my natural teeth? Is there any alternative while the prosthesis is being manufactured? Thanks in advance for your answer.

Of course, you can fix any prosthesis in your mouth. Both the lower and upper parts. But if you had surgery or had a bone cut off, then the prosthesis may not fit on such gums. Not every specialist will undertake such work.
Alina (11/20/2020 at 08:22 pm) Reply to comment
It’s good that now there are so many ways and options. But which one is the most reliable, which is recommended in most cases? Or will it all be purely individual?
Olga (11/20/2020 at 08:29 pm) Reply to comment
After reading the article, several questions arose. 1) How long do removable and fixed implants last? Which ones are more durable? 2) Is it difficult to care for them and maintain an aesthetic appearance?
Artyom (11/20/2020 at 09:04 pm) Reply to comment
Of course, implants are better because they will last better. And so my mother used Corega cream. Helped a little, but not much. She has the most ordinary prosthetics. Although I already made the second one 15 years later. The gums sank, so the first ones no longer held up.

Removable dentures made of nylon in Moscow
Another budget option for orthodontic structures for removable prosthetics are removable nylon dentures. Already from the name of the products it is clear that they are made from nylon - a soft polyamide with increased elasticity. This type of construction is applicable in both complete and single prosthetics. In the production of removable dentures, biocompatible and hypoallergenic nylon is used, which does not change color and properties under the influence of various external aggressive factors.
Dental nylon has a non-porous structure, which prevents the penetration of pathogenic microorganisms into the prosthesis. This quality distinguishes removable nylon dentures from products made of acrylic and other types of plastic. Nylon structures are fixed to the gums, where the base of the removable denture is fixed with special locks. Fastening elements are also made of nylon (less commonly, silicone) and therefore they remain inconspicuous against the background of the natural tissues of the oral cavity. Nylon clasps help to obtain the tightest possible fit of the removable denture to the bed, which is necessary for reliable fixation of the product in the mouth.
Among the advantages of removable dentures made of nylon are the comfortable anatomical shape of the products, compact size and low weight. These characteristics facilitate the process of adaptation to the design and reduce the risk of pain during the use of a removable denture. But orthodontic products made of nylon have not only advantages, but also a significant number of disadvantages:
1. A removable nylon denture does not provide coordinated work of the masticatory muscles and therefore excessive pressure occurs in the oral cavity on the soft tissues and mucous membranes. Constant loads on soft tissues and jaws accelerate the process of receding gums and reducing the volume of bone tissue.
2. Increased flexibility of the design leads to the fact that some of its elements will work more when chewing food, while others will work less. The result of uneven load is the patient’s discomfort while eating and fairly rapid wear of the removable denture.
3. Over time, the removable nylon denture sags and this phenomenon is fraught with inflammation in the oral cavity.
4. The surface of the product is rough and therefore plaque accumulates on the prosthesis, stone is formed, and an unpleasant odor may appear from the mouth.
Also, the disadvantages of removable dentures made of nylon include the significant time consumption for manufacturing the structure and the need for frequent and regular visits to the dentist for hygienic procedures to sanitize the denture base and the oral cavity.
Which removable dentures are better – acrylic or nylon? Comparison of designs and reviews from experts
What type of dentures is better - nylon or acrylic? Patients often turn to dentists with this question, finding it difficult to make a choice on their own. The answer to this pressing question will depend on in which area of the oral cavity restoration is required and what kind of restoration it will be - complete or partial.
If it is necessary to carry out prosthetics with complete edentia, then it is more advisable to opt for acrylic removable dentures - they stay in the oral cavity better due to the “suction cup” effect. But nylon and acrylic removable dentures are equally poorly suited for restoration in the area of the lower jaw bone - the products simply cannot be firmly fixed in this area. Therefore, here it is best to consider a fundamentally different type of structure - clasp dentures or dentures on implants. Nylon prostheses are inferior to plastic structures in terms of ease of use and durability. When using them, patients are more often concerned about painful relationships, and the care of a soft polyamide prosthesis requires more complex and specific care.
However, removable dentures made of acrylic are not suitable for the restoration of lost dental units with single prosthetics. The clasps of the prosthesis will be clearly visible, which can cause psychological discomfort to the patient. Therefore, for single dental prosthetics in the smile zone, preference is given to clasp or nylon products.

Questions and answers
Are there any contraindications to fixed prosthetics supported by implants?
Absolute contraindications include:
- chronic heart failure, angina pectoris, arterial hypertension;
- diseases of the blood and hematopoietic system;
- oncology (cancer, sarcoma);
- pathologies of the immune system.
Relative contraindications in which surgery is postponed include:
- poor oral health;
- presence of dental diseases (gingivitis, pulpitis, periodontitis);
- malocclusion;
- diseases of the temporomandibular joint, etc.
What material do you use to install a permanent fixed prosthesis?
For total prosthetics of an edentulous upper or lower jaw supported by implants, we install a permanent bridge with crowns made of zirconium dioxide - the most durable and aesthetic material in modern dental orthopedics.
How to care for a fixed overdenture on implants?
- Be sure to purchase a new toothbrush with a soft or ultra soft hardness level. Start brushing her new teeth only after three days from the date of surgery. It is better to use a herbal paste to prevent gum inflammation.
- To clean the interdental spaces and the space between the denture and the gum (a toothbrush cannot get there), use an irrigator, but only from the 3rd week after installation of the implants. You should start with the initial speed, gradually increasing it.
- Use a mouthwash after every meal. They fight bacteria in the mouth and freshen breath.
- Visit your dentist once every six months for a preventive examination and professional oral hygiene (cleaning your teeth from plaque and tartar).
Is complete prosthetics of the upper jaw different from the treatment of an edentulous lower jaw?
The peculiarity of the upper jaw is that it receives less chewing load and is therefore inferior in density to the lower jaw. Its structure is looser and more susceptible to resorption. For her rehabilitation, the “All-on-six” method is indicated. A larger number of supports is necessary to ensure reliable fixation of the complete bridge.
For the treatment of total adentia of the lower jaw, in most clinical cases, the “All-on-4” concept is optimal, since four are quite enough to support the orthopedic structure.
It is important to know that dental implants take root faster in the lower jaw - in 2-3 months. On the top it is slower - in 5-6 months.
Dental dentures “Acry-free”
Innovative removable dentures are “Acry-free” dentures. These are elastic and flexible products made from unique raw materials based on acrylic resin. Acrylic gives the finished structure the necessary strength, rigidity and ensures its durability during operation.
Acri-Free removable dentures are often confused with products made of nylon or plastic, but this is a mistake: the designs have individual quality characteristics and are also easy to restore if the system breaks down. The material for making removable dentures Acry-free is biocompatible with the tissues of the oral cavity and is identical in color to the shade of the gums, which makes the finished structure aesthetic and invisible to others.
Choosing Acri-Free removable dentures is advisable if you have the following indications:
- An individual allergic reaction in a patient to metal alloys and plastic.
- The loss of both one tooth and the complete loss of dental units in rows.
- Periodontitis and periodontal disease. Installing a removable denture for this pathology will help prevent the process of further loosening of the teeth.
- Acri-Free soft prostheses are recommended for people whose professional activities are associated with an increased risk of injury.
Removable dentures of this type are valued by professionals for a significant number of advantages. In particular, the system may be used in prosthetics in cases where the patient has serious gum disease. Acri-Free structures are firmly fixed in the mouth, easy to repair, and the material they are made of does not cause allergic reactions or irritation of sensitive tissues of the oral cavity.
The advantage of Acri-Free is its excellent indicator of the tight fit of the products to the prosthetic bed, which eliminates the manifestation of pain when eating and helps to ensure proper functioning of the masticatory muscles. To install the system, it is not necessary to pre-file healthy teeth, and the prosthesis itself does not sag, does not absorb moisture, and pathogenic bacteria and foreign substances that can stain or damage the product do not penetrate into it. The structures do not require specific and labor-intensive care, their cost is lower than that of nylon removable dentures and, if desired, you can leave the denture on at night.
The only disadvantage of Akri-Free removable dentures is that their constant use will lead to gradual atrophy of bone tissue. But this disadvantage is characteristic of all types of systems used in removable prosthetics.
Clasp removable dentures
Prosthetics with clasp dentures are in demand among patients because they allow one to obtain the most reliable and at the same time aesthetic result for the restoration of lost teeth. Structurally, removable dentures are a plastic base with a metal alloy arch on which artificial teeth are attached. The product is fixed to the prosthetic bed with special locks, the type of which is selected based on the characteristics of the case and the preferences of the person requesting the service.
Removable clasp dentures are applicable for both complete and partial restoration and are graded into different types according to the method of fixation:
- Removable dentures with clasps have special hooks made of a metal alloy, which are attached to the supporting teeth.
- Clasp products with attachment. The lock of the prosthesis is hidden inside it and consists of two elements, one of which is attached to the artificial crown, and the second - directly on the tooth of the structure.
- Prostheses with telescopic type crowns.
Clasp dentures can be made from different materials - metal, plastic and metal-ceramics. This makes it possible to choose the best option for different and most complex cases. Clasp-type structures have both pros and cons, which must be studied before making the final decision to install just such a prosthesis. The advantages include the affordability of clasp dentures, aesthetics, no need to remove the product before going to bed, and easy care.
Among the disadvantages of removable clasp dentures, the main one is worth highlighting - the process of adaptation to them is quite lengthy and during it the patient may be bothered by painful sensations. It is also worth considering that the design may be noticeable to prying eyes if prosthetics are performed in the smile area. But as you can see, clasp removable dentures have far fewer disadvantages than advantages, and at the same time, they stay firmly in the oral cavity, ensure proper distribution of the chewing load, and prosthetic constructions can be combined with treatment of teeth and gums.
Removable dentures without palate
The denture base is made of durable dental alloy, onto which artificial teeth are attached. This product is considered a type of clasp removable dentures, but domestic dentists have also developed “sandwich” dentures, the manufacture of which uses a combination of two materials – acrylic and nylon. Such removable dentures are soft and quite comfortable to use, but at the same time they do not create the necessary and correct distribution of pressure when chewing; the fastening elements of the product look massive and unaesthetic on the teeth.
The gradation of structures is carried out according to the type of fastener:
- Elements in the form of loops. The loops are fixed on the supporting teeth and firmly hold the prosthesis in the installation area.
- Telescopic fastener.
- Attachments. The most reliable and aesthetic option for removable dentures without a palate, but at the same time the most expensive in terms of price.

Review of the advantages and disadvantages of palateless dentures
The main advantage of removable dentures without a palate is the convenience and safety of the design for the patient. After the restoration procedure, the patient quickly gets used to the installed prosthesis, normal diction is maintained, and there is no unpleasant sensation of strong pressure on the soft tissues of the oral cavity. A removable denture without a palate will ensure optimal distribution of the chewing load and this will reduce the risk of rapid bone tissue atrophy.
There are also disadvantages to removable dentures without a palate. For example, high price. The service for prosthetics with an innovative system will cost more than the installation of plastic or nylon prostheses. It is also worth knowing that for prosthetics with removable dentures without a palate, the presence of supporting teeth is mandatory.
Removable dental prosthetics systems on implants
The opinion of professionals is clear: implant prosthetics is the most modern and reliable solution, both for complete and partial edentia. The result of restoration using implants will not only be as durable as possible, but at the same time aesthetically pleasing and comfortable for the patient.
The procedure for installing removable dentures on implants is a long process and consists of several main stages:
- At the beginning of the restoration process, the oral cavity is prepared for subsequent manipulations. A thorough sanitation of the mouth is performed, and all dental diseases detected during the initial examination are treated.
- Next, the implant is implanted, after which a break is taken in the treatment, which is necessary for adaptation and healing of the damage.
- Crowns are installed and secured.
Removable dentures on implants can be made from different materials, the most budget-friendly of which are acrylic and ceramics. However, the cheaper the material, the more often the prosthesis will have to be changed, while products made from expensive industrial raw materials can last 10 years or more. Removable dentures on implants come in different types and differ both in the type of fasteners and in design - you can order both a single denture and a solid one.
Solid removable dentures on implants can be fixed in the patient’s mouth using different methods:
- Using ball-shaped fasteners. This fixation method is justified when only a few implants are required.
- Using beam fasteners. This installation method is optimal when securing a removable solid denture.
Another method of attaching a removable denture to implants is screw. The use of technology allows for high-quality restoration of the entire dentition, eliminating the need to install an implant on each unit - four implants will be enough to create reliable support for a removable denture. The advantages of the screw fastening method include the precision of fit of the structure on the implant, which ensures optimal distribution of pressure that occurs when chewing food.
Sometimes removable dentures on implants are called conditionally removable. This is explained by the fact that the fixation of the product in the oral cavity will be as strong as possible thanks to the locking system of the design. Such a prosthesis will not fall out when talking or eating and will look aesthetically pleasing and natural. However, the patient can, if necessary, remove the prosthesis at any time.
Prices for restoration with removable dentures on implants are quite high and they depend not only on the pricing policy of a particular dentistry. The full cost of the service will include the cost of preparing for implantation, manufacturing a removable denture, and the price of a specific design from a specific manufacturer. The choice of prosthetic technology will also affect the price of the procedure. But the costs in this case are fully compensated by the excellent and long-lasting results of restoration with removable dentures on implants.
There are a number of contraindications to prosthetics with removable dentures on implants, which you can find out about during a consultation with our dentistry specialists in Moscow - Vanstom. To make an appointment, just call us! We will offer you a full range of removable prosthetics services for complete or partial edentia and pleasant, affordable prices!
Fastening methods
For complete restoration of the dentition, a spherical or beam method of fastening is used. The first method is used only for fixing 1-2 implants, due to the mobility of the fasteners. A removable denture on a bar provides a strong and reliable fastening of the structure in the mouth. Does not move when talking or eating. Due to the high precision of installation, the patient’s natural bite is restored.
There is a third, screw method: A removable denture is attached directly to implants installed in the bone tissue. Advantages of the method: maximum accuracy of installation, uniform distribution of load on the jaw, high aesthetics.
