What Are Partial Dentures?

Partial dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace multiple missing teeth while preserving the ones you still have. They’re crafted from a combination of gum-colored acrylic and natural-looking replacement teeth, often secured with metal or flexible plastic clasps that gently anchor to surrounding teeth.

Unlike full dentures, which replace an entire arch, partials are designed for patients with some natural teeth still in place.

Benefits of Partial Dentures

• ✅ Replace multiple missing teeth in different areas of the mouth
• ✅ Restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile with ease
• ✅ Prevent surrounding teeth from shifting
• ✅ Affordable compared to bridges and implants
• ✅ Easy to adjust, repair, or replace over time
• ✅ Removable for easy cleaning and nighttime comfort

Types of Partial Dentures We Offer

At SolSmile Lounge, we offer several partial denture options depending on your needs, budget, and preferences:

• Metal Framework Partials: Durable and long-lasting, these are the most common type and offer strong support.
• Flexible Partials: Made of lightweight, flexible resin that blends naturally with your gums and offers a more comfortable fit.
• Acrylic Partials: More affordable and ideal for temporary or transitional solutions.

During your consultation, we’ll recommend the best option based on your lifestyle, oral health, and cosmetic goals.

Who’s a Good Candidate for Partial Dentures?

You may be a great candidate for partial dentures if you:

• Are missing multiple teeth in the upper or lower arch
• Still have healthy natural teeth for support
• Want a removable and cost-effective solution
• Are not a candidate for dental implants or bridges due to bone loss or budget

We’ll evaluate your gums, bite, and remaining teeth to ensure the best fit and function.

What’s the Process Like?

Getting partial dentures typically involves two to three visits to our Tampa office:

1. Consultation & Impressions
   We examine your mouth and take detailed digital impressions to ensure a precise fit and natural appearance.
2. Try-In & Adjustments
   We’ll do a trial fitting with a wax model to check bite and comfort before final fabrication.
3. Final Placement & Care Instructions
   You’ll receive your custom partial denture and learn how to wear and care for it properly.
