Partial dentures are dental prostheses used to replace one or more missing teeth. Unlike full dentures, which replace all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw, partial dentures are designed to fit around the remaining natural teeth and fill in the gaps left by missing teeth.
They are typically made of a combination of materials, including a metal or acrylic framework, artificial teeth, and clasps that attach to the remaining natural teeth for support and stability. The artificial teeth are custom-made to match the colour, size, and shape of the patient's natural teeth, ensuring a natural-looking and functional result.
Partial dentures can help improve the appearance of the smile, support the remaining natural teeth, and prevent further tooth loss by distributing the biting and chewing forces evenly across the jaw. They can also improve speech and restore the ability to eat a wider variety of foods.
As the name suggests, partial dentures are only used to cover the partial areas of the mouth. You may consider partial dentures if you have one or more missing teeth on one side. Partial dentures can easily restore the oral function, and oral health.
Missing teeth can affect the appearance of your smile and may make you feel self-conscious. Partial dentures can fill in the gaps and help restore a natural-looking smile.
With missing teeth it becomes difficult to bite, chew, and speak properly. Partial dentures can improve your ability to eat a wider variety of foods and communicate more effectively.
When you lose a tooth, the surrounding teeth can shift out of place and may become more vulnerable to decay or damage. Partial dentures can help prevent further tooth loss by providing support and stability to the remaining natural teeth.
Missing teeth can also affect your oral health by increasing the risk of gum disease and other dental problems. Partial dentures can help maintain the health of your gums and remaining natural teeth.
The dentist will perform a comprehensive dental exam, take impressions of your teeth and gums, and discuss your treatment goals and options.
