Your partial denture questions answered
What are partial dentures?
Partial dentures are fully removable dental inserts that replace one or more missing teeth. They’re a popular smile replacement solution designed to blend in among your remaining teeth to help restore the look and functionality of your smile.
How do partial dentures work?
Partial dentures attach to your remaining teeth with metal or plastic clasps. They are custom-made to fit your mouth and provide support for your cheeks and lips. Partial dentures can help improve your ability to chew and speak, and also prevent your remaining teeth from shifting.
How long do partial dentures last?
To maintain proper oral health, the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends evaluating your denture(s) to see if they need to be replaced if you’ve had them for 5 or more years. Partial dentures may require more consistent check-ups and hygiene visits, so check in with your dentist to see what they recommend to ensure you get the most out of your smile.
