What are partial dentures?

A removable partial denture usually has replacement teeth attached to a metal or acrylic (plastic) base that matches the color of your gums. Partial dentures often have some form of clasp that attaches to your natural teeth and can easily be taken out of your mouth for cleaning or storing while you sleep.

What to know about partial dentures


Why it’s important to replace missing teeth
When you lose a tooth, the nearby teeth may tilt or drift into the empty space. The teeth in your other jaw may also shift. This can affect your bite and place more stress and wear on your teeth and jaws. You may also find it harder to clean teeth that have shifted, which can lead to tooth decay and gum disease.
Advantages of removable partial dentures
• It can be easier for you to chew food.
• You can speak better if your speech has changed due to missing teeth.
• Your cheeks and lips will be supported so your face does not sag and make you look older.
Tips for adjusting to your partial dentures 
It takes practice to put in and take out a removable partial denture. 

Your dentist will show you how to place and remove it and make adjustments so it fits comfortably.

Never force the denture into place by biting down. This could bend or break the clasps or damage your teeth. 

Don’t wear your removable denture 24 hours a day. Your dentist may tell you to take out the partial denture at bedtime and put it back in when you wake up. 
Eating and speaking
When you replace missing teeth, eating is much easier. But, it takes practice.

• Begin by eating soft foods cut into small pieces.

• Chew on both sides of the mouth to keep the pressure even.

• Do not chew gum or eat very sticky or hard foods.

If you have missing teeth, wearing a removable partial denture can help you speak more clearly. If you find that some words are hard to say at first, try reading out loud in front of a mirror. With time and practice, you should be able to speak well.

Peace of mind comes standard

We want you to feel completely confident in your purchase and satisfied with your smile.
