What are partial dentures?
Partial dentures are used to close up gaps caused by missing teeth. They can be totally composed of acrylic or comprised of a combination of acrylic and dental alloy. They are held in place by metal clasps or flexible tooth-colored clasps.
Why is it important to replace lost teeth?
Missing teeth might affect the health of your remaining teeth. They can shift and migrate into gaps, causing harm to oral tissues and affecting your bite. Crooked teeth are also difficult to clean between, increasing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease, as well as tooth loss.
Partial dentures keep your natural teeth from shifting and migrating into undesirable positions, so enhancing your oral health.
