Dentures are false teeth made to replace teeth you have lost. Dentures can be complete or partial. Complete dentures cover your entire upper or lower jaw. Partials replace one or a few teeth.
Advances in dentistry have made many improvements in dentures. They are more natural looking and comfortable than they used to be. But they still may feel strange at first. In the beginning, your dentist may want to see you often to make sure the dentures fit. Over time, your mouth will change and your dentures may need to be adjusted or replaced. Be sure to let your dentist handle these adjustments.
Speaking and eating may feel different with dentures. Be careful when wearing dentures because they may make it harder for you to feel hot foods and liquids. Also, you may not notice things like bones in your mouth.
National Institute on Aging
'''Dentures''' are full-mouth false teeth, which are used in old age (or after an accident in which the users' real teeth have all been knocked out) and also, when your teeth go bad because of certain ailments, to allow for a normal appearance and aid in chewing. Problems with dentures include the fact that they often don't 'feel right' in the wearer's mouth and that they have a tendency to move around, thus requiring denture adhesive to hold them in place.
