Removable Complete Denture

A complete denture (also known as a full denture) is a removable

appliance used when all teeth within a jaw have been lost and need
to be prosthetically replaced. A complete denture is constructed
when there are no more teeth left in an arch, hence it is an exclusively
tissue-supported prosthesis. A complete denture can be opposed by
natural dentition, a partial or complete denture, fixed appliances or,
sometimes, soft tissues.

Removable Partial Denture

A removable partial denture (RPD) is a denture for a

partially edentulous patient who desires to have replacement

teeth for functional or aesthetic reasons and who cannot have

a bridge (a fixed partial denture) any reason, such as a lack of

required teeth to serve as support for a bridge (i.e. distal

abutments) or financial limitations.

Dental Implant

A dental implant is a surgical fixture that is placed into the jawbone and

allowed to fuse with the bone over the span of a few months. The dental

implant acts as a replacement for the root of a missing tooth. In turn, this

"artificial tooth root" serves to hold a replacement tooth or bridge.
