Despite how well you maintain your teeth, they may not be around forever. You could lose them due to old age, an injury, a disease, or any combination of the three. Should that time come, consider having denturesimplanted. They may sound unappealing, but they're the best solution for missing teeth.
Dentures may be needed for many reasons. They can replace lost teeth, restoring your full smile. They'll let you eat more easily, especially hard foods like fruit. They'll even make your face fuller, which is a major self-esteem booster.
There's nothing wrong with needing dentures. Their only purpose is to help you keep living your life.
Everyone's heard the story about George Washington's wooden teeth. It turns out that they were never actually made of wood. Although they were constructed from equally-ridiculous materials such as ivory, metal, and even the teeth of animals and fellow humans.
Dentures date back to 700 BC. They were constructed from both human and animal teeth. Around the 16th century, dentures were made from wood, softened beeswax, ivory and so on. Dentures weren't created with acrylic resin and plastic until the 20th century.
The dentures we have today are completely different from the primitive inventions of the past. They come in all sorts of variations so that they can fit any dental situation.
