Conventional Full Dentures
Full conventional dentures are suggested as a result of complete tooth loss. The base of conventional full dentures is made of flesh-colored a cyclic material. For upper jaw, the base covers the palate whereas, for the lower jaw, the dentures take the form of a horseshoe so that adequate empty space is left for the tongue.

The recovery period takes almost three months during which the patient has to live without teeth.
