Characterisation of a denture base is necessary to enhance aesthetics and mimic natural oral anatomy. This procedure involves shaping, staining, or texturing the denture base to achieve a realistic appearance. Proper characterisation ensures the denture blends seamlessly with the surrounding dentition, improving patient satisfaction and confidence. Characterisation is particularly useful for enhancing the appearance of the smile and addressing aesthetic concerns.
Improving the appearance of the denture enhances patient satisfaction and confidence, enabling them to eat, speak, and smile confidently. By addressing aesthetic concerns, the procedure prevents complications such as discomfort or dissatisfaction, ensuring the prosthesis remains stable and comfortable. Additionally, it enhances the durability of the restoration, ensuring it remains functional and aesthetically pleasing over time. By addressing retention issues, the procedure prevents complications such as discomfort or failure, ensuring long-term success.
Ensure proper shaping and staining to achieve realistic and aesthetically pleasing results. Use advanced techniques to ensure a strong and durable bond, reducing the risk of debonding or failure. Verify the fit and margins of the characterised denture to ensure it does not interfere with the patient’s bite or cause discomfort. Educate the patient on proper care and maintenance of the denture, emphasizing the importance of avoiding habits like grinding or clenching.
