Partial Denture

practical solution for replacing multiple lost teeth

Partial dentures are mobile prosthetic replacements that are used to replace one or more teeth in situations where the patient still has some natural teeth.

types of PARTIAL DENTURES:

  • Acrylic partial dentures: made of acrylic (a special type of plastic), are a more affordable solution. Although functional, these dentures can be a bit bulkier and less comfortable compared to other types;
  • Metal partial dentures (Wironit dentures): are combined with a metal base that gives them greater strength and durability. These dentures are thinner and more comfortable and fit better in the oral cavity;
  • Dentures with telescopic crowns: these dentures use telescopic crowns (double crowns) on the remaining teeth, which allows for a more stable and aesthetically pleasing solution without visible metal clasps.
 

advantages / Disadvantages ​

advantages of partial dentures:

  • An economical solution: partial dentures are more affordable than fixed prosthetic replacements or implants;
  • Flexibility: if another tooth is lost, the prosthesis can be adjusted, allowing for easier replacement;
  • Aesthetics and functionality: modern materials enable the natural appearance of the prosthesis, and the basic functions of chewing and speaking are restored to the patients.

Disadvantages of partial dentures:

  • Adjustment required: some patients need some time to get used to wearing the prosthesis;
  • Reduced stability: Compared to fixed solutions, partial dentures are less stable;
  • Need for maintenance: partial dentures need regular maintenance, and sometimes need to be adjusted or replaced to fit properly.

Who is a candidate for partial dentures?

Partial dentures are suitable for patients who have lost some of their teeth but still have enough healthy remaining teeth to serve as support for the denture.

Partial dentures provide a functional and aesthetically acceptable solution for people who do not want or are unable to install dental implants or fixed bridges.

Tooth loss does not have to be an obstacle to a quality life. The options available allow you to feel comfortable and confident in your daily activities. If you are considering partial dentures, we recommend consulting with your dentist to find out which solution is best for your situation.
