Partial Dentures
Find Out How Partial Dentures Can Complete Your Smile
With the help of partial dentures, any gaps from one or more missing teeth can be filled to restore your confidence and comfort. At the same time, metal or nylon partial dentures also greatly improve your ability to chew and speak clearly.
There are a number of advantages to choosing partial dentures to complete your smile. For starters, they do not harm remaining natural teeth and they are a cost-effective solution for most patients. Additionally, and perhaps most importantly, a partial denture may prevent your natural teeth from shifting or drifting into the space left by the loss of a natural tooth. In fact, a partial denture may help maintain the position of your natural teeth by providing them with additional support.
Tips for Wearing Partial Dentures
-
Ensure your dentures are stored in cleansing solution (or cool, clean water if no solution is available) when they are not being worn. This will prevent your dentures from drying out.
-
Ensure that you handle your dentures with care. They are somewhat fragile and may break if dropped or banged against something (such as a door or wall).
-
Brush your gums, tongue, and your natural teeth every morning prior to putting in your dentures. This keeps your mouth clean and greatly reduces the chances of complications occurring.

How long will partial dentures last?
The lifespan of your partial dentures depends on a number of factors, including your oral health (including the health of your natural teeth), the material used to create your partial denture, and if they receive proper care and maintenance.
