Understanding Dentures and Partials
Dentures and partials are custom-made, removable replacements for missing teeth. They can help you speak, eat, and smile with confidence. But what’s the difference between the two?
Dentures replace all of your teeth, while partials replace just a few. They both work by attaching to your gums and, in the case of partials, to your remaining natural teeth. It’s important to know that dentures and partials might feel strange at first, but over time, your mouth will get used to them.
