Denture

A partial denture is a dental prosthetic device used to replace missing teeth. It is a non-permanent and removable device that is custom-made to fit the shape and size of the patient’s mouth and the specific space vacated by the missing teeth. This device is typically made from metal and acrylic and contains false teeth attached to a metal framework. Partial dentures are secured by clasps that attach to the patient’s natural teeth for support. Partial dentures help restore the patient’s ability to chew, speak and smile and can provide a natural appearance. In addition, they are more affordable than full dentures and are a viable solution for those who have lost some of their teeth but still have healthy teeth.
