PARTIAL DENTURES OR ADDITIONS
A partial denture is designed to fill in the gaps left by one or more missing teeth. It is either a plastic or metal plate with a number of false teeth attached to it.
It usually clips onto some of your natural teeth via metal clasps, which hold it securely in place in your mouth.
It can easily be unclipped and removed.
Here at Atlas Denture Centre we can take measurements of your mouth and provide a partial denture to you directly after you have first seen your dentist for a treatment plan and certificate of oral health.
Read the British Dental Health Foundation leaflet about partial dentures, including which type of denture (metal or plastic) is best for you. This also gives information on an alternative called a fixed bridge, which may be suitable for some people.
