Material of dentures?

Is there any metal in dentures? What materials are they made of?

Material of dentures?
If you are talking about complete dentures, then no, unless someone wants some gold bling. Otherwise they are made of methylmethacrylate (acrylic resin).





Partials can be made w/ nickel/cobalt alloy w/ acrylic teeth.

Depends on the type of denture. Partial dentures typically, but not always, have a metal substructure called a "framework".





This metal contains cobalt and chromium (among some others in smaller amounts, if memory serves). Some contain nickel (e.g. nickel-chromium-molybdenum).
Reply:complete dentures are made off acyrlic resin..


metal dentures are used in partial tooth are lost and called vitallium
