Metal Framed Dentures in Keighley
Bulky dentures? Or are you tired of loose, uncomfortable dentures and worried they might not last long?
Then metal dentures, or chrome cobalt dentures, offer the perfect long-lasting, best fit and lightweight solution for you. Designed with a robust metal framework for added stability and strength, metal-framed dentures in Keighley offer the best of both worlds—comfort and durability.
What are metal-framed dentures?
Metal dentures, also known as cast-metal dentures, are traditional removable dentures supported by a lightweight yet sturdy metal base. This base provides a solid foundation while being discreet and comfortable.
Unlike traditional full acrylic dentures, which rely on the gums for support, metal-framed dentures often use clasps or metal anchors to take support from the natural teeth. This ensures unmatched stability—a snug fit, a stable fit that stays in place as you talk, eat, and go about your day.
Also called chrome cobalt dentures, metal dentures are usually crafted using a blend of chrome cobalt alloy and acrylic, creating a strong, sturdy, yet lightweight, and custom-fit denture plate.
Why choose metal framed dentures?
Modern metal-framed dentures are a far cry from often bulky acrylic counterparts. They are designed with both practicality and aesthetics in mind.
Lightweight, not bulky
The lightweight, sleek nature of chrome dentures adds to the comfort. Unlike its bulkier alternatives, they are less obvious in the mouth, allowing for faster adaptation and a more natural feeling. This can be a game-changer for those with severe gum loss who need bulkier acrylic dentures for better stability.
Durable
Metal frame dentures are recognised for their durable construction, which is attributed to the base material, a chrome cobalt alloy. This material exhibits remarkable durability, guaranteeing that your dentures can endure the demands of daily use and remain functional for a long time.
Stable
Metal framework dentures do not easily warp or are subjected to frequent changes in shape or breakage. They are stable for many years and need fewer adjustments.
Precise fit
Durable metal dentures are meticulously designed to conform to the contours of your mouth, ensuring both comfort and an accurate fit. This level of precision lessens the probability of discomfort, sore spots, ulcers or dislocation while speaking or eating.
A better feel of hot and cold foods
Metals are better conductors of heat and cold. Thus, you can better feel the taste and temperature of foods with metal frame dentures.
Preserve oral health
High-quality metal dentures are meticulously crafted to exert little force on your remaining natural teeth, preserving oral health. This mitigates the risk of shifting of the adjacent teeth and preserves proper bite alignment.
