Many people wonder what is the difference between fixed and removable dentures? And we will find out through the following:

  • Fixed Denture: It is considered one of the dentures that are installed inside the tooth cavity to restore the visible appearance and function of the teeth. Most people resort to it when they need treatment to compensate or beautify a part of the front or back teeth. These dentures are also characterized by being exactly like natural teeth and are permanently fixed inside the teeth. Fixed dentures are one of the easy methods that help the patient chew food without discomfort and feel confident when speaking or smiling.
  • Removable Dentures: These dentures are the opposite of fixed ones, as they can be removed when the patient needs to. They are also used in cases of compensating for all missing teeth or part of them in the jaw. They are installed in the same size and shape as natural teeth, and they can be either complete or partial dentures.

What is the price of a fixed denture?

The costs of dentures vary from one place to another, and certainly, the price of each type of denture differs from the other type, and this is due to the type of material used in the installation of the dentures. The cost and price of a fixed denture at the Medical Center for Dental Care is between 500 and 2000 Egyptian pounds in case of using porcelain material, while if using zirconia material, the price starts from 2000 to 5000 Egyptian pounds.

What are the factors affecting the cost of installing dentures in Egypt?

Denture installations are considered one of the medical methods used for teeth beautification or compensating for damaged parts inside the teeth. Some people believe that the cost of these installations is high due to the effort exerted during their performance or the materials used in them. The cost and price of dentures in Egypt are also determined according to the place or clinic where the installation will be done, the doctor’s experience and effort, and also the prices differ from one city to another. In the following paragraph, we will present the factors affecting the cost of dentures in Egypt in detail:

  • Doctor’s Experience and Skills: The cost of dentures may differ due to the number of years of experience the doctor has. If their experience is comprehensive and extensive, this makes it easier to install the dentures and does not take a long time during the installation. Some people also go to doctors with high qualifications and experience, which will certainly lead to an increase in cost.
  • Number of Teeth Needed to be Treated: This is due to the patient’s condition, whether the number of missing teeth is small or large, and if it is a large number, this leads to an increase in the cost of dentures, and vice versa.
  • Quality of Materials Used During the Procedure: The higher the quality of the material used in the manufacture of dentures, the more it will increase the cost, and this is according to the doctor’s choice and the patient’s condition.
  • Services Provided by the Clinic: The services provided inside the clinic are due to the reputation and fame of the place, and this will lead to an increase in the price.

Types of Fixed Dentures

Each type of fixed installations differs according to the patients’ cases; there are cases that need complete dentures to compensate for all teeth, and there are those who need to restore a small part. Different materials are also used in each denture, so we will learn about the types of fixed dentures as follows:

  1. Complete Dentures: They include two types, traditional (permanent) and immediate. Immediate dentures are made for each case according to the required size and shape, where the immediate (temporary) dentures are placed directly after removing the natural teeth and are placed for up to 12 weeks or less, until the gums have completely shrunk, and after that, some important adjustments are made so that the gums are completely integrated with the new artificial teeth.
  2. Partial Dentures: This type is used to compensate for damaged parts or complete other remaining parts of natural teeth. Usually, this type is attached to a plastic base. In this type, some developments have been made that have made it lighter and more flexible, which helps the patient not feel anxious when speaking or chewing food. Partial dentures also help protect and stabilize the remaining parts of the teeth.
  3. Flexible Dentures: These dentures are made of rubber material or attached to bases containing different materials. This type is characterized by a set of advantages such as:
  • It is lightweight and is firmly and rigidly fixed inside the teeth, and its color does not change easily, but it lasts for long periods.
  • It is considered one of the most suitable types for people who suffer from sensitivity to some of the materials used in the installation.
  • These dentures withstand the force of chewing food and do not get damaged or broken quickly, and the flexible denture also maintains the health of the gums and mouth.
  • It helps to reduce the entry of bacteria and microbes into the teeth, and also gives an aesthetic appearance to the teeth, appearing as if they are healthy natural teeth.

How is a fixed denture installed?

Fixed dentures are installed to restore missing parts of the teeth and are compensated through a set of artificial teeth that are permanently installed and appear aesthetically natural. These dentures are in the shape of a crown that is placed for one or more teeth inside the jaw. These dentures are installed through several steps, which are:

  • First, an X-ray is taken of the teeth and shown to the doctor to ensure the healthy condition of the teeth.
  • During installation, all remaining roots of the missing teeth are removed.
  • Then the doctor uses an adhesive material to manufacture and install the fixed dentures to the same size and fit as the teeth.
  • After that, the doctor checks the size and shape of this denture until it is installed.
  • Regular follow-up with the doctor until the stability and functioning of these fixed dentures are ensured.

  2. The appearance of severe inflammations in the gums when rubbing against the denture.
  3. If the patient is exposed to sneezing or coughing, it is better to put their hand on their mouth so that the denture does not come out of its place.
