Partial dentures are usually recommended when you have lost some teeth but still have healthy natural teeth remaining. They are custom-made to fit your smile and are designed to restore your smile, natural appearance and function. Also known as “partials,” they are a great option for supporting your facial contours and promoting normal speaking and chewing.
An immediate partial denture is a partial which is placed immediately after the extraction of your teeth. Your denture is fabricated in advance and may be the permanent solution for your smile or serve as a temporary replacement while your gums heal and you prepare for a more permanent solution, such as a dental bridge or implant.
Immediate partial dentures are a popular choice because they can help patients regain their confidence and improve their ability to speak and chew right away. Another benefit to this restoration is that it is custom-made to fit your mouth, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit. Additionally, because they are made in advance, you will never need to be without teeth.
However, if you receive an immediate partial denture your appliance may require adjustments as your gums heal and shrink. And while partial dentures are secured with thin clasps or frameworks you may not find them as stable as a bridge or implant would be.
