Missing teeth can lead to more than just gaps in your smile. They can affect how you chew, speak, and even the shape of your face. Dr Ho Ying Yao discusses how dentures, whether partial or full, can help restore both function and confidence. Partial dentures are used when only some teeth are missing, while full dentures replace all teeth in a jaw.
Compared to fixed options like implants or bridges, dentures are generally more affordable and easier to clean. They’re also removable, which some patients find more comfortable, and they can often be modified if additional teeth are lost in future. While not everyone may need or prefer dentures, they remain a reliable and accessible solution particularly for those replacing several teeth at once. With the right fit and care, they can positively impact quality of life.
