IMPORTANT: Aimed at the general public, the Bücco Guide is a general educational guide. Its content presents some of the most common dental practices. However, there are many approaches and philosophies in dentistry and your dentist / specialist will be able to advise you on what he believes to be the most appropriate for your oral health. Do not hesitate to consult a dentist / specialist for more information.

Full dentures

Full dentures

  • They are used for the replacement of all teeth (14) of a dental arch (upper or lower jaw).
  • They cover a good part of the gingiva. Full dentures for the upper jaw also cover the palate and lay against it.
  • They are held in place by suction (created by saliva accumulating between the dentures and the gingiva).

Partial dentures

Partial dentures

There are 2 types of prostheses; full and partial dentures. They are all made in a laboratory, using a mould made from impressions of your teeth.

Partial dentures (or removable partial dentures) are retained by clasps or precision attachments that connect to adjacent healthy teeth. They replace one or more teeth and must be removed for the night or for cleaning them.

They may be used when the adjacent teeth are not strong enough to withstand a bridge or when many teeth are missing.

Precision dental prosthesis

Precision dental prosthesis

To determine the position of the teeth of this type of prosthesis, the articulator used reproduces the movements of protrusion (movement of the chin forward) and laterality (movement of the chin to the right and left). This method provides excellent stability of the prosthesis and perfect chewing on both sides of the jaw.
