Partial denture FAQs
What are partial dentures?
Partials are fully removable dental prostheses that help you replace one or more missing teeth.
At Aspen Dental, all of our partials are made with an acrylic base and use additional materials to mimic your natural smile.
We have options that include metals for added for stability and resin for flexibility.
They’re designed to seamlessly blend in with your remaining natural teeth.
With a partial, you can restore the look, fit and function of your smile to one you’ll love.
How do partial dentures work?
To seamlessly blend in, they attach to existing teeth using clasps.
For your best fit, we custom-craft them to your mouth’s unique structure.
They also support your cheeks and lips to support your natural facial structure.
What types of partial dentures are available?
At Aspen Dental, we offer 3 types of partials, all that use an acrylic base:
Metal cast partial dentures: Metal framework for strength, stability and easy repairs.
Flexible partial dentures: Lightweight resin framework that’s metal-free, ideal for metal sensitivities.
Combination partial dentures: Mixed framework that combines resin and metal for a strong, seamless partial.
How should I care for my partial dentures?
Keep your partial in tip top shape with these key steps:
Remove and rinse after eating to eliminate any food debris.
Brush your partial every day with a soft denture brush and non-abrasive cleaner.
Soak your partial in a provider-approved denture solution overnight.
Schedule regular dental checkups to maintain your partial so it fits and functions comfortably.
For your best long-term use, the ADA recommends getting your partial evaluated by a clinician for a replacement every 5-7 years.
Can partial dentures cause tooth sensitivity?
When you first get your partial, it may take time to get used to the change in your smile. Here’s what to look out for:
Some sensitivity may occur as your mouth adjusts to your new partial.
Your clasps or attachments can put stress on supporting teeth. If you experience any discomfort, your
local care team can make adjustments so you stay comfortable.
If you have pre-existing cavities or gum recession, these may increase your sensitivity.
Lastly, an ill-fitting partial can cause irritation and may require adjustments to enhance your fit.
Can I eat and speak normally with partial dentures?
Absolutely. Here’s what you can expect:
You may experience an adjustment period as your gums and mouth get used to your partial.
Start with soft foods and gradually introduce firmer textures.
Practice speaking to improve your confidence and comfort while wearing your partial.
Are partial dentures comfortable?
Initially, discomfort can be common while adjusting. Typically, you get used to your smile within a few weeks.
Proper fit and regular adjustments when needed can help you stay comfortable.
Follow your dentist’s guidance for optimal wear and care.
