Removable Partial Dentures

Sometimes circumstances create situations in which more than a couple of teeth are lost in a variety of different patterns. A removable partial denture is a cost-effective and easy way to replace these multiple missing teeth.
 
What is a Partial Denture?
 
Removable partial dentures usually consist of replacement teeth attached to pink or gum-colored plastic bases, which are connected by metal framework.This precision appliance uses and attaches to remaining teeth and gums to support the forces of chewing. Removable partial dentures attach to your natural teeth with metal clasps or devices called precision attachments. Precision attachments are generally more esthetic than metal clasps and they are nearly invisible. Crowns on your natural teeth may improve the fit of a removable partial denture and they are usually required with attachments. Sometimes implants may be used in conjunction with the partial.Partials with precision attachments generally cost more than those with metal clasps.
 
How Will My Partial Fit?
 
At times, adjusting the partial denture may be necessary. As you age, your mouth naturally changes, which can affect the fit of your partial. Your bone and gum ridges can recede or shrink, resulting in a looser-fitting partial denture.Partials that do not fit properly should be adjusted by Dr. Majcher. Loose partials can cause various problems, including sores or infections,so contact our office promptly if your partial denture becomes loose.
 
You can do serious harm to your partial and to your health if you try to repair your partial denture. A partial is custom-crafted just for you, and must be made to fit precisely by Dr. Majcher who will choose what adjustments are necessary.Using a do-it-yourself kit can damage the appliance beyond repair or cause sore areas in your mouth. Regular glues often contain harmful chemicals and should never be used on a partial denture.
 

If your partial denture no longer fits properly, if it breaks, cracks or chips, or if one of the teeth becomes loose, call the office immediately. In many cases, the necessary adjustments are often completed at the appointment right in the office. Complicated repairs may require that the denture be sent to the dental laboratory, which may take a few days to complete.
