Restore your confidence and create a natural looking smile with partial dentures.
There are lots of reasons to choose partial dentures. Your smile is one of them! Ask our team about options to suit your needs.
Partial dentures are used to replace missing teeth. They are used to create natural-looking teeth for the upper or lower jaw using a removable prosthetic plate. Teeth can be added to partial dentures as needed and therefore they can be used for many years as your needs change.
There are two main types of partial dentures:
Aside from the type of material used to make the dentures (either plastic or metal), the main difference is the type of clasps used to hold the partial dentures securely in place in your mouth.
The material and clasps used determine both the lifespan and cost of your partial dentures. At The Denture Clinic we custom make both types of partial dentures. We will discuss all the options and offer solutions that best suits your needs.
When you lose teeth for whatever reason (tooth decay, gum disease or an accident) it can effect your life in many ways. Being able to smile without gaps can provide a huge boost to your confidence and self esteem. There are many health benefits that come along with choosing partial dentures. Partial dentures allow you to speak clearly, enjoy eating and preserve your remaining natural teeth.
Correctly fitted partial dentures can prevent any remaining teeth drifting out of position and balance chewing and grinding forces more evenly in the mouth. It can also preserve your facial structure and bone density which can be badly affected when gaps are left in the mouth.
If you have some gaps in your mouth from missing teeth, partial dentures are a cost-effective option to restore your smile. The cost of partial dentures will depend on the type of denture and how many are being replaced. See our pricing page for more information.
Advances in denture technology mean that after some initial adjustments most people are comfortable wearing partial dentures. You can enjoy a wide variety of foods and feel more confident in all aspects of your life. You will need to look after your partial dentures and have regular checks with your dental prosthetist to check for any wear and tear. We recommend having your partial dentures relined every two years to ensure a comfortable fit.
Before choosing partial dentures in Canberra, it’s important to consider factors such as comfort, appearance, and how they will fit alongside natural teeth. The design and material of the denture can affect durability and ease of use, so discussing available options with a dental prosthetist can help in making a decision. Additionally, oral health plays a role in determining suitability, as the remaining teeth and gums need to be in good condition to support the denture. If you’re considering dentures in Canberra, we’re here to help.
Partial dentures typically stay in place using clasps that attach to the natural teeth, creating stability while allowing for easy removal when needed. Some designs use metal clasps, while others rely on a more flexible material for a less visible fit. In some cases, additional support like precision attachments or modifications to existing teeth may be recommended for a more secure fit. The approach depends on factors such as the number of missing teeth and the overall oral structure.
Proper care can help extend the lifespan of partial dentures and maintain oral health. They should be removed and cleaned daily using a denture brush and a mild, non-abrasive cleanser to prevent plaque buildup. It is also recommended to soak them overnight in a denture solution or water to retain moisture. Regular check-ups at a denture clinic in Canberra can help ensure that the dentures fit well and that any adjustments are made as needed.
The adjustment period for partial dentures varies for each person, as it may take time to get accustomed to the feel and function of the appliance. Initially, there may be slight discomfort or difficulty speaking and eating, but this usually improves with time and practice. If persistent discomfort or fit issues arise, adjustments may be needed.
