Partial Dentures: A Personalized Solution for Missing Teeth
A removable partial denture can be an excellent solution if you’re missing one or more teeth. It is custom-designed to restore your smile, improve speech clarity, and enhance your ability to eat comfortably and efficiently.
Types and Materials for Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are crafted using a combination of metal and acrylic materials, or in some cases, they are made entirely from acrylic. The design of your partial denture will depend on your unique dental needs and anatomy. Our goal is to create a denture that is not only functional but also self-cleansing, preserving your remaining natural teeth and surrounding tissues.
At Brilliant Dental Care, we collaborate closely with trusted local dental labs to ensure that your partial denture is carefully crafted. The design process focuses on evenly distributing chewing forces across your remaining teeth and soft tissues, and we may recommend adjustments to your remaining teeth to help balance these forces.
While acrylic partial dentures are often used as transitional or temporary solutions, metal partials are typically preferred for their superior strength and hygiene. They are thinner and more durable than acrylic alternatives. Dr. Nazanin will work with you to determine the most suitable option based on your individual needs and preferences.
The Benefits of Partial Dentures
A removable partial denture not only restores your smile, but it also helps prevent your remaining natural teeth from shifting or moving. It improves your ability to chew and digest food, allowing you to enjoy a more varied and healthy diet.
