What is a Partial Denture?

Partial dentures are removable dental appliances that replace one or multiple missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They are specially designed to fit around and blend in with the remaining natural teeth, filling the gaps left by the missing teeth.

Partial dentures offer several benefits:

  • Improved chewing
  • Enhanced speech
  • Aesthetic improvement
  • Support for remaining teeth

Cleaning and Maintenance

Taking good care of partial dentures is essential to prolong their longevity.

Just like natural teeth, it’s important to brush them every day to remove food and plaque. And whenever the denture is not in use, soak it in water or a quality cleaning solution to keep it in its original shape.

Remember, do not use toothpaste since it can be too harsh and damage your dentures.

What are They Made Out Of?

The two most common materials that partial dentures are made out of are acrylic and porcelain. Each type has its own pros and cons.

 

Tips for Eating

Getting used to eating with partial dentures can be a challenge. To ease the transition:

  • Start with soft foods
  • Take small bites
  • Avoid biting with your front teeth
  • Say no to sticky foods
