Dentures for children
When small teeth have to be replaced early

The loss of one or more teeth in children is always a sensitive subject. Whether through decay, accidents or developmental disorders, a permanently missing tooth can affect not only appearance but also your child's chewing, speech and self-confidence. This is where dentures for children come in.
We help parents in such situations with clear advice, child-friendly solutions and a great deal of sensitivity.
When do dentures for children make sense?
Dentures for children are used when milk teeth or even permanent teeth are lost early and no natural replacement is available. This can happen, for example, with:
- congenitally missing teeth (teeth do not develop at all)
- tooth loss after accidents
- badly damaged milk teeth that had to be removed
- decay in early childhood (baby bottle tooth decay)
The dentures take on important jobs: they keep the space for the permanent teeth, support speech development and give children back their smile.
What types of dentures for children are there?
As a rule these are removable partial dentures that are individually fitted to the child. They are made of child-friendly materials, are light and safe, and are regularly adjusted to the growth of the jaw.
Together with our dental laboratory, we at Zahnfine Kids make sure the denture fits optimally and does not get in the way in everyday life.
Important: gentle adjustment and regular check-ups
Especially with small children, it takes time and patience until the denture is accepted. We lovingly accompany your child through this phase with small exercises, positive encouragement and regular check-ups.
