Partial Denture for Beautiful Smile
Sometimes circumstances create a situation in which more than just a couple of teeth are missing in a variety of different patterns.
In these cases, the treatment options include leaving the mouth as is, creating fixed bridgework, providing implants or fitting the patient with the removable partial denture, often referred to as a partial.
A dental bridge is a precision appliance that attaches the remaining teeth and the gums to support the forces of chewing.
A partial is usually composed of gum colored acrylic, which supports denture teeth that attach to a metal framework. Partials require a good foundation that may include replacing some fillings or building new crowns.
Supporting teeth must be prepared to accept the partial framework. Tiny indentations called rests and other preparations are made in the load bearing teeth. Once the rests are made, an impression of the teeth and gums is taken.
A model is then created from this impression on which the partial framework is built. Once the framework is made, teeth and acrylic gums are added to complete the partial. One way to keep the partial securely in place is to use a special position attachment.
This type of attachment is not visible and requires crowns to support the partial. Another type of retention uses clasps the hold the partial on to the teeth and uses rests to support the pressure from chewing.
A third way to keep the partial anchored employs implants. This could be more expensive but will provide stability that may not be available otherwise.
Once completed your dental bridge treatment in Brampton it is important to keep your partial clean and to make sure they are never dropped or mishandled as they are made up with the clasps that hold on to the teeth.
