Partial Dentures

When a series of your teeth are missing, no dentist will suggest you go for dentures - to be precise, complete dentures. Apart from getting bridges and implants, a partial denture is a practical method to achieve a complete dental arch.

What are Partial Dentures?
A partial denture is removable, yet natural-looking dental appliance that helps restore the form and function of your jaw by replacing one or several missing teeth. Partial dentures are made from a combination of metal and acrylic – which gives them the strength to handle your needs for chewing and speaking, while also looking natural.

Benefits of Partial Dentures
1. They are removable, and hence, they give you the freedom of eating anything, cleaning as per your will, and taking off for your comfort.
2. The most affordable means of having missing teeth replaced.
3. These dentures don’t cause any damage to the teeth adjacent to the missing one.

FAQs
● Can I get partial dentures if I have the habit of teeth grinding?
If you grind and clench your teeth knowingly or unintentionally, partial dentures aren’t meant for you. This pressure can cause damage to both natural teeth as well as dentures.

● Can I eat with partial dentures?
Partial dentures are designed to give you all the form and function of natural teeth. It may take some time for you to adjust to your new partial denture, but eventually, you will be able to enjoy most of the foods that you love.

● Can I sleep with partial dentures in my mouth?
The safe, healthy choice is to not sleep with your partial denture in place.
