What Are Full and Partial Dentures?

Dentures are custom-made dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore function and aesthetics to your smile. Full dentures replace an entire arch of teeth, while partial dentures fill gaps when some natural teeth remain. Our office provides both full and partial dentures to meet the specific needs of each patient, ensuring that they can speak, eat and smile with confidence.

Full Dentures vs. Partial Dentures

Full dentures are used when all teeth in the upper or lower arch are missing. These dentures rest directly on the gums and are carefully crafted to fit comfortably. Full dentures can be removed for cleaning and maintenance. In some cases, implant-supported full dentures may also be an option for added stability.

Partial dentures are recommended when only a few teeth need to be replaced. These dentures are designed to fit around the remaining natural teeth, using a metal or acrylic framework for support. Partial dentures prevent shifting of natural teeth, helping maintain alignment and oral health.

 

Benefits of Full and Partial Dentures

Choosing full or partial dentures offers several advantages:

  • Restores function: Dentures improve chewing ability, making it easier to enjoy a varied diet.
  • Enhances appearance: Dentures restore the natural look of your smile, improving facial aesthetics.
  • Supports oral health: Partial dentures prevent natural teeth from shifting out of position.
  • Boosts confidence: A restored smile can enhance self-esteem and social interactions.
  • Custom-fit design: Both full and partial dentures are tailored to ensure comfort and proper fit.
