Partial Dentures
Advances in dentistry have made today’s dentures much more life-like and comfortable than ever before. Unlike a fixed bridge that requires the alteration of adjoining healthy teeth and the stress that is put on bridge during chewing, a partial denture does not require alteration to adjoining teeth and shares the stress of chewing with the underlying gums and the teeth clasped. With proper care a partial denture can last decades and cost only a fraction of a bridge. Also unlike a cemented bridge, if another tooth is lost in the future, a denture tooth can be easily added to the same partial.
The creation of a partial denture begins with detailed measurements. The design of your partial denture takes into account the shape and subtle natural differences in shapes and length of your existing teeth. Tooth color and gum color are also carefully evaluated to find the perfect shades for your face. By combining just the right shape, length, and color, along with the latest neuromuscular principles, we can create your very own natural smile. When it comes to dentures, yours should go unnoticed. The better the dentures, the more natural and lifelike they appear. Gone are the days of the bulky and ugly denture.
