Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace one or more missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. Unlike full dentures, which replace all teeth in an arch, partial dentures are designed for patients who still have some of their natural teeth remaining.

🔹 What Are Partial Dentures?

A partial denture consists of one or more artificial teeth attached to a gum-colored plastic base. This base is often connected to a metal framework that holds the denture securely in place within the mouth by attaching to the remaining natural teeth with clasps or precision attachments.

🔹 Types of Partial Dentures

1. Removable Partial Denture (RPD)

  • Most common type.
  • Made of acrylic resin, metal, or a combination of both.
  • Can be taken out and cleaned daily.

2. Flexible Partial Denture

  • Made from soft, flexible thermoplastic material (like nylon).
  • More comfortable and natural-looking.
  • Ideal for people allergic to metal or looking for better aesthetics.

3. Fixed Partial Denture (Bridge)

  • Cemented in place and not removable.
  • Anchored to adjacent teeth or dental implants.

🔹 Benefits of Partial Dentures

  • Restore function for chewing and speaking.
  • Improve the appearance of your smile.
  • Prevent shifting of remaining natural teeth.
  • Cost-effective compared to implants or bridges.
  • Easy to repair or adjust if needed.

Care and Maintenance

  • Remove and clean daily using a soft denture brush and denture cleaner.
  • Soak overnight in water or denture solution.
  • Avoid bending or damaging the clasps.
  • Maintain good oral hygiene to protect natural teeth.
  • Visit your dentist regularly for adjustments and checkups.

If you’re considering a dental bridge, consult with your dentist to determine the best type based on your specific dental condition and overall oral health.
