PARTIAL DENTURES A partial denture, is a removable dental prothesis that replaces one or more missing teeth. It often has a metal framework, with metal clasps and wires that go around your natural teeth, to hold it in place. The teeth that you are missing are added to the framework, and the partial denture fits securely around your natural teeth. If you need a tooth extracted after your partial denture has been made, we can simply add a tooth onto the framework. Removable partial dentures restore a person's natural appearance, as well as greatly improving the ability to chew and speak properly. Partials do not harm remaining natural teeth. They actually prevent your natural teeth from shifting or drifting, and offer additional support. You will not only chew better you will look and feel better too! All work is done on the premises, in our fully equipped state-of-the-art dental lab. Give us a call, and see what we can do. Creating confident smiles since 1982. R.H.A.D.
