Dentures & Partials

A partial denture is a type of dental prosthetic that consists of a plate with one or more false teeth attached to it. The base of this dental prosthetic is gum-colored and the framework is either made of cobalt-chromium metal or plastic. This plate is worn by people who have a missing tooth or teeth, but who aren't missing all of their teeth. A partial plate fits into your mouth with clasps that go around your existing teeth, and help keep the partial denture in place. Partial dentures are removable just like regular dentures, but unlike dental implants which act as replacements for teeth roots.
