Cosmetic Dentist in Palm Beach Gardens:
Partials and Dentures

Using the most advanced techniques we create natural restorations, beautiful reconstructions and comfortable-fitting high quality dentures and partials. Partial dentures can be made with conventional clasps precision attachments or the new Saddle-Lock® partial that shows no clasps. Dentures and partials can both be made to attach to dental implants for additional stability and support.

An important step in maintaining a healthy smile is to replace missing teeth. When teeth are missing, the remaining ones can change position, drifting into the surrounding space. Teeth that are out of position can damage tissues in the mouth. In addition, it may be difficult to clean thoroughly between crooked teeth. As a result, you run the risk of tooth decay and periodontal (gum) disease, which can lead to the loss of additional teeth. In situations where only some teeth are missing, one possible solution is to have

a partial denture (often referred to as a “partial”) made. The design of the partial is dependent on the number of teeth missing. Stability of the final work is very important, if there is movement while chewing, the less comfort and function it has. A partial denture helps you to properly chew food, a difficult task when you are missing teeth. In addition, the partial denture may improve speech and prevent a sagging face by providing support for lips and cheeks.

Dentures:

When a person has had all of their teeth removed we must make complete dentures for the person to wear. Dentures are an acceptable solution, but no match for our real teeth! Hence we always try to save natural teeth. When the teeth are removed we are left with a ridge of bone on the upper and lower parts of our mouth, that we can use to put false teeth on.
