Denture Partials in Palm Bay

Removable partial dentures are a less invasive method to replace and restore missing teeth than alternative solutions like dental implants. While they’re more cost-effective and less invasive than implants, removable partial dentures require frequent, lifetime upkeep and maintenance. Because these partial dentures are removable and essentially rest on your gums, they need to be cleaned frequently, just like your natural teeth. By cleaning your dentures regularly, you keep your gums healthy and your dentures looking as good as new.

To begin treatment, we’ll determine if removable partial dentures are the best option for you. Factors such as oral hygiene, the location of the missing tooth gap or gaps, bone strength, and long-term viability all factor into your treatment plan. Our team will start by taking dental impressions of your teeth, which will serve as the mold used to create your dentures. Next, we’ll review the size, shape, and coloring of each replacement tooth to recreate your natural smile. Once these are determined, we send the molds to a dental lab, which creates a mock-up partial denture for you.

During a fitting appointment with our team, we’ll have you test the mock-ups to check how they fit, look, and feel in your mouth. This is the time you and our team will make adjustments to the fit or color of the teeth before sending the mock-ups back to the lab for alterations. Your honesty is important here, since your feedback shapes the final removable partial denture you’ll receive. Once the final changes have been made to the mock-up, the lab will custom build your dentures. After we receive the final design, your last fitting session will be to make small adjustments for comfort, bite, or fit, which can all be handled in-house by our team.
