Partial Dentures in Mitcham

Partial dentures are typically made up of replacement teeth that are attached to a gum-like plastic base that may or may not be connected by metal to hold the appliance in place in your mouth. If you still have one or more teeth remaining on your top or bottom row, partial dentures may be the solution you need to complete your smile.

You may not think you need a partial denture, but it could become necessary. This appliance not only fills in the spaces of your missing teeth but it also keeps your remaining teeth from shifting positions. However, you can take it out whenever you please. They're removable via internal attachments and are available in many types.

As you discover your options for partial dentures, your denture specialist will make you aware of the three options for your new appliance: metal, acrylic and flexible acrylic. Each material has its own strengths and weaknesses; ask our team about what they are. We'll make recommendations based on your individual preferences.
