Speaking of Durability

Partial and full dentures are indeed a great choice when it comes to durability. However, unlike dental implants (which can last a lifetime with proper care), dentures will require replacement every ten years on average. Also, unlike dental implants and some dental bridges permanently attached to your gums, dentures will need to be removed at night and soaked in a denture-safe solution at night. For some patients, this inconvenience is reason enough to consider other alternatives, while other patients are comfortable performing this nightly routine.
