About Partials
Partial dentures, or “partials,” are a reliable solution for patients missing several teeth but not an entire arch. Designed to fill gaps and restore function, partials consist of a gum-colored base that supports artificial teeth. They are custom-made to fit comfortably around your existing teeth, providing both stability and a natural look. Partials not only improve your smile but also help with chewing and speaking, preventing other teeth from shifting out of place. They are a more affordable alternative to implants and are removable for easy cleaning.
At our dental office, we offer high-quality partial dentures tailored to your needs, ensuring comfort, durability, and aesthetics. Schedule a consultation today to see if partials are the right choice for you.
About Dentures
Dentures are a reliable and effective solution for replacing missing teeth, designed to restore both function and appearance. Whether you need a full or partial set, dentures are custom-made to fit comfortably and look natural, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
The process begins with a thorough consultation, where your dentist will assess your oral health and discuss the best options for you. After taking precise measurements and molds, your dentures are crafted to fit securely and comfortably in your mouth. Modern dentures are made to mimic the appearance of natural teeth, offering a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution.
With proper care and maintenance, dentures can last many years, helping you regain your smile and improve your quality of life.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do partial dentures stay in place?
Partial dentures are secured by metal or acrylic clasps that attach to your natural teeth. They are custom-made to fit snugly, providing stability while allowing easy removal for cleaning. In some cases, precision attachments may be used for a more secure and discreet fit.
Will dentures affect the way I speak or eat?
Initially, you may experience slight difficulty speaking or eating as you adjust to your new dentures. Practice speaking and eating softer foods at first. With time, most patients adapt, and dentures can improve your ability to chew and speak more effectively.
