Services - Partial Dentures

Below are a few FAQs regarding partial dentures. If you don’t find the answer to your question below, be sure to contact us directly.

What are partial dentures?

A removable partial denture can help ensure proper chewing and digestion and will assist in support of your existing teeth.

How are they designed?

Partial dentures can either be constructed out of a metal and acrylic composition or completely out of acrylic. The design process involved in creating a removable partial denture is specific to a patient’s needs. When a partial denture is designed, the dentist acknowledges that chewing places a strain on the remaining teeth during eating. Partial dentures are designed with this in mind so that the chewing forces can be distributed evenly over the entire remaining teeth and soft tissues.

Am I a candidate for partial dentures?

Only your dentist and denturist can determine your candidacy and appropriate treatment plan for you.
