Partials and dentures

A flexible partial denture is a type of dental prosthesis used to replace missing teeth to restore oral function and aesthetics.  It's a removable appliance designed to fit around the existing teeth in the mouth.  They are often made of flexible, nylon-like material that's more comfortable and less conspicuous than traditional rigid dentures.  

Dentures are removable oral appliances that replace missing teeth.  There are many types of dentures, including full, partial and implant supported dentures.  With proper care and maintenance, the average lifespan of a denture is seven to ten years.
