What do you mean by "plastic jacket"?  That's no dental term I've ever heard of.

don't get dentures.....get veneers....they drill down your teeth and then replace them with new and straight white teeth

glasses.  You can always take them off for making out and other stuff.  Braces, although temporary, still suck.

Wow. I guess it depends on your religion.\nIn Judaism, the dentures are removed, along with all other items that are not part of the body.\n\nI think that in religions/cultures where the body is embalmed and put on display in an open coffin, with makeup and clothes and everything, the dentures would be left in.

There is a denture material called Flexlite.  its like plastic and bendy so it won't break if you dropem. also you since it is bendable you can make them grab the teeth more.

super glue is NOT good for denture's it will cause more damage to them (been there done that cost a lot to get fixed)take them to denture repair place it will be cheaper in the long run

contacts are a little more maintenance, and there is a slight chance for an infection. the pros are they look better

Kes is probably correct.  But there's another possible reason.\n\nTempered glass (especially mass produced), is generally less expensive than polycarbonates like lexan.\n\nAlso, polycarbonates are more suceptible to scratching and discoloration.

Lady! you have got some good ole  Tori.  Your dentist is correct. Cost somewhere between $200-300 per side.  Believe me it is worth it. A hard denture riding on those bones would be worse then a bur under the saddle of a horse. You should heal in about a week and the dentures will fit better.  But remember a lower denture will never fit very well.  The tongue, lips and floor of the mouth will make that baby jump around the rest of your life.  I personal recommend that you see about having implants placed to help stabilize or anchor that thing in.  Never get mad at a dentist for a poor fitting denture. It will never be as good as real teeth.

you cant. dentures and paritials are custom made by dental labs and can only be made with a written order (they actually call it a prescription) from a dentist. it requires measurements, impressions and a lot of attention to detail. sorry.

Very likely the job will be botched unless you have the right tools and magnifier to do the repair...then it's buy a  new appliance time.  Also, it's only temporary because saliva dissolves super glue after a few weeks. (3 months maximum).\n\n\nMuch experience fixing other peoples fixes...would you believe I've even had people come in who'd repaired dentures with JB Weld and were wearing them!!!  (highly toxic!)

for me denture fixatives is worthy, not only to serve as denture adhesives but also to cushion your gums. do you know that we load tons (in weight)during mastication? that's too heavy right? so if the person who have fixatives it may give a little help to protect their gums.

Dentures are a pain in the ass. Any monkey can make a decent upper denture.  It's the lower set that is a problem %95 % of the time.  However if done correctly and worn properly they should be able to be worn with out hurting the patient.   I did not say you would be able to eat with them only 5 out of 100 people can really eat with lowerr dentures.  The best you can hope for is to be able to eat something the consistencys of a pancake. \n\nThe process if done the correct  way\n1.  Preliminary impressions\n2.  Custom trays and Final impressions\n3.  Tooth try \n4.  Delivery\n5.  Adjustment\n6.  Repeat adjustment as many times as needed to \n    eliminate sore spots. \n\nyou should consider some sort of implant supported denture as soon as possible for the lower.  AFter twenty years or so there will not be any bone left to hold anything let alone a denture.  \n\n\nso

The type of plastic selected has a great influence on the performance of the plated plastic part. ABS plastics are the base materials in most cases.\n\nCheck out the following:
