Are there false teeth with no plates?

Drphoto_8 I have to have a full set of false teeth put in. Is there any false teeth that doesn't need the full plate to hold it up. Some one needs to invent a magnetic set of teeth, so you don't need all that gook in your mouth.

Dr. Slota: Yes, you can have dentures with implants holding them in. If you need a lot of "gook" to hold your denture in you may need to have them relined or rebased. That is where the dentist adds in more denture plastic to fill in voids left by changes in your jaw or weight loss.
