Dentures (also known as false teeth) are prosthetic devices constructed to replace missing teeth, supported by the surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. Conventional dentures are removable (removable partial denture or complete denture).

There are two main categories of dentures, the distinction being whether they fit onto the mandibular arch or on the maxillary arch.
