When someone looses all their teeth the missing teeth are replaced with a denture or plate. Upper dentures generally work better than lower dentures because of the tongue which tends to dislodge the lower denture. Chewing efficiency compared to natural teeth is reduced by about 75%. Taste is reduced due to the need to cover the top of the mouth for upper dentures.
