A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth and surrounding tissues.
Partial Dentures – When you have several teeth missing from different areas of your upper or lower jaw, a partial denture can restore your biting and chewing abilities as well as bring back a beautiful smile and retain the shape of your mouth. Partial dentures can be either fixed or removable and can be designed to use adjoining teeth as support or be secured by dental implants which are titanium screws that are permanently placed in your jawbone. A removable partial denture is either held in place by clasps that hook on to adjoining teeth or by securing to the abutments of titanium screws that are implanted in your jawbone. Partial dentures are easily removed for brushing and cleaning.
