Full dentures are required for those people who have no remaining teeth. The dentures act as their teeth and are shaped and colored to fit their smile and overall appearance. The steps to fabricating dentures include:
Your dentist will send all of this information to the dental lab where the dentures will be fabricated. The lab technician constructs a stone model and then fashions the dentures out of acrylic according to the stone model. Once the dentures are made they may need to be adjusted before wearing them home. Dentures are held in place via suction and denture adhesive.
