什麼是假牙

假牙是指用來替代缺失牙齒的人造修復裝置,主要功能是恢復咀嚼、美觀及維持牙齒排列。常見種類包括可自行取下清潔的活動假牙、利用鄰近牙齒支撐的固定假牙(牙橋),以及在牙槽骨中植入人工牙根再安裝牙冠的植牙假牙,其中植牙的穩定性和功能最接近真牙。假牙能改善咀嚼、發音和外觀,但需要定期檢查與清潔,以避免牙周病或假牙鬆脫;選擇哪種假牙通常由牙醫根據病人的牙齒狀況、骨質條件及預算來建議。

甚麼情況下要安裝假牙

  • Tooth lossTooth loss due to cavities, periodontal disease, accidents, or age.
  • Supporting facial structureDentures can prevent the face from sinking due to missing teeth.
  • Preventing gum recessionProperly fitted dentures can reduce alveolar bone resorption.
  • Difficulty chewingMissing teeth can affect eating efficiency and lead to indigestion.
  • Appearance impactMissing teeth can alter facial contours, affecting self-confidence and social interactions.

安裝假牙過程

Patients can use "implant-supported overdentures," which combine dentures with dental implants. These dentures offer good stability and are less expensive than full-mouth dental implants.

初步評估

The dentist will conduct a comprehensive oral examination, take X-rays or 3D CT scans to analyze the condition of the jawbone, develop a personalized treatment plan, assess the patient's physical condition, complete medical history and medication history, and also evaluate whether tooth extraction or periodontal disease treatment is necessary.

初步評估

印模與牙齒模型製作

Through full-mouth X-rays and CT scans, the patient's oral condition is assessed. The oral cavity is scanned, and the oral structure is digitally captured and converted into 3D images to accurately identify problems such as tooth alignment, missing teeth, and the presence of cavities.

局部麻醉

進行植牙手術

In overdenture implant surgery, dentists place 2-4 implants into a single jawbone and attach button-like devices above the implants to secure the overdenture, improving its stability and making future maintenance easier. The surgery typically takes 1 to 2 hours.

製作與安裝假牙

The dentist will take impressions and fabricate the prosthesis based on the patient's oral condition and intraoral scan data. Once the overdenture is complete, the patient will need some time to adapt to the bite, but this is a normal part of the treatment process. The installation process of implant-supported overdentures is carefully planned and performed to provide each patient with a comfortable, safe, and effective dental solution.

Is it okay to sleep with dentures in?

It is recommended that patients remove their overlock dentures before going to bed to allow their gums sufficient rest. At least seven to eight hours of rest per day helps maintain oral health.



Do dentures need regular maintenance?

Yes, dentures need regular maintenance and checkups to ensure their proper function and lifespan.

How long can dentures be used?

The lifespan of dentures varies depending on the type, material, maintenance habits, and oral condition. Removable dentures generally last about 3 to 7 years, while fixed dentures (bridges) can last about 5 to 10 years.


How to clean and maintain dentures?

For cleaning and maintenance, it is recommended to use a toothbrush with bristles of medium firmness to carefully clean overlock dentures. In addition, besides soaking denture cleaning tablets, dentures should be soaked in room temperature water after cleaning to prevent them from drying out and warping.

Can I apply for a "Senior Citizen Medical Voucher" to subsidize the cost of dentures?

If you are a Hong Kong resident aged 65 or above, the government will automatically deposit the voucher into your elderly healthcare account. You can use it simply by presenting your identity card and healthcare voucher card at the clinic.

戴假牙常見風險

牙齦不適與壓迫:假牙長時間配戴可能造成牙齦疼痛或壓痕。

咀嚼效率下降:活動假牙的穩定性不如真牙或植牙,可能影響食物咀嚼。

口腔潰瘍:假牙邊緣摩擦口腔黏膜,容易造成潰瘍或傷口。

骨質萎縮:缺牙區沒有牙根支撐,長期可能導致齒槽骨流失,假牙鬆動。

發音影響:初期可能影響說話清晰度,需要適應。

清潔困難:若清潔不當,容易堆積食物殘渣,引起口臭、牙周病或真菌感染。

假牙斷裂或鬆脫:長期使用可能磨損或斷裂,需要修補或更換。
