Dentures are the oldest and most common replacement options for missing teeth. Dentures are also known as false teeth or removable dentures. This dental restoration is gradually getting replaced by dental implants and dental bridges, but some people still opt for dentures. In some cases, dentures are an unsuitable option, which makes dentures the only option.
Different dentures are available, but they fall under the following categories.
Acrylic dentures are the most common materials used for dentures. All plastic dentures are durable and have high quality. They are mostly used as full dentures to replace missing teeth on an arch.
Dentures made with both plastic and metal dentures are comfortable, and most people tolerate them. These dentures are strong due to the metal skeleton made from chrome and cobalt, with plastic gum and teeth in the metal structure.
These dentures can serve as full dentures but are mostly used for partial dentures for people who still have a few teeth in their mouth. The plastic used for metal and plastic dentures is usually acrylic and has metal clasps.
The plastic may also consist of nylon material, but the denture will be more flexible than plastic-metal dentures made with acrylic, usually called Flexi dentures. Flexi dentures have no metal clasps but are preferred for their aesthetic feature, and many people refer to them as aesthetic dentures.
Dentures with Flexi plastic and a metal substructure are better suited as partial dentures because they are more aesthetic and comfortable.

These dentures are made with a flexible acrylic material and are better suited to replace a few missing teeth, especially the front teeth, which are visible when you smile. Flexi dentures have clasps and are comfortable. The clasps are plastic giving better retention.
The cost of dentures depends on different factors such as the material used to make the dentures, your dentist and the type of denture. However, most dentures have a fixed price range for denture fitting.
Generally, partial acrylic dentures cost about £600 - £1000, while full acrylic dentures cost about £1000 - £3000. Metal-plastic dentures cost about £1000 - £2800, and flexible dentures cost £2200 - £3400.
