YES! A good dentist and a good dental lab can create a denture that no one can tell you are wearing a denture.
Yes, it can based on the tooth shade and gum color you choose.
Yes! Make sure the dentist has experience, and they can look completely natural.
They can look very natural as long as you have a good dentist who uses a good lab.
Hello,

With the recent advancements in dental materials and techniques denture can look more natural than ever. When dental implants are incorporated in the process to make implant retained dentures, the dentures can even 'feel natural', allowing the patient to enjoy any food they please and give them the confidence that only comes from a stable, healthy, and natural looking smile.

Yes, they can. But usually not from a quick, cheap denture mill. You will get what you pay for. It may help if you have a close up photo of your smile when your teeth were healthy to gauge size, shape, etc.

Good luck,

Yes, they can look amazingly real...BUT...chewing function will never be like having natural teeth or fixed implants...consider saving your teeth if you can! Is your problem bone loss or tooth decay? There are remedies for both!!
Yes, better than caps because the teeth are translucent.
