Dentures are artificial teeth or prosthetic devices used for replacing missing teeth. They are supported by surrounding hard and soft tissues. Most conventional designs are removable, however, there are some that are fixed to the mouth with dental implants. In most cases, dentures are the best option if the patient has several missing teeth, or is in need of a quick and convenient way to replace all of them. In the process of making dentures, the dentist uses an initial impression to create a model of a patient’s mouth, which is later used to fabricate a more accurate mold of their jaw. Afterwards, a model made from wax is carved into the gum line to ensure that the denture is a proper fit. The final model is created by the dentist. However, it will be necessary to return to the dentist for a few adjustments during the first month.

After the procedure, the dentist makes a plaster model of the mouth. This plaster model replicates the jaw's shape and position. Then, the dentist attaches wax teeth to the model. The wax teeth are carved into the gum line to ensure that the denture fits properly. After the waxes are set, the dentist will make an impression of the mouth to ensure the best fit possible. This is the most accurate way to ensure a good fit.

There are many different types of plastic used for dentures. Most are made from acrylic, which mimics intra-oral tissues. They are made from heat-cured acrylic polymethyl methacrylate or rubber-reinforced polymer. Sometimes, coloring agents or synthetic fibers are added to the denture to give it a tissue-like appearance. Recently, in May 2021, Desktop Health received the 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Flexcera Base, which is a proprietary resin used in 3D printing of high-quality dental prosthetics.
