Partial Dentures and Full Dentures by Texas City Dental.

.

A removable partial denture (RPD) is a prosthesis that comes in and out of your mouth, and it replaces any missing teeth you may have. A single removable partial denture can replace a tooth or almost all the teeth on a single arch. They are typically the cheapest treatment option available. However, many find that having to take it in and out can become annoying. The removable partial denture is traditionally made with a metal framework with pink plastic or acrylic. The metal framework goes across the roof of your mouth (upper jaw) or around the backs of the teeth (lower jaw), and hooks onto some of the remaining teeth. These hooks, or clasps, help the partial denture stay in place, so it is important to have these placed on healthy, stable teeth. The denture teeth are then placed in pink acrylic, which replaces any missing teeth the patient may have. The Texas City Dental in Texas City is conveniently located near t La Marque, Galveston, and Hitchcock area is conveniently located near to the HEB, and the ROSS market complex provides the best Cosmetic Dentistry near you.

Typically, before getting removable partial dentures, the dentist has to prepare some of the remaining teeth with dimples and grooves, which are made so that the metal framework can slide into the teeth. The dimples and grooves are called rest seats. This is where the denture sits on top of the tooth to prevent the dentures from pushing down into the patient’s gums and makes the dentures very stable. It is important to look after your dentures to keep your mouth healthy. Clean your dentures in the morning and before bed. You may also like to rinse them in cold water after meals.
