Acrylic Partials
Acrylic partial dentures are fabricated without the use of metal; making them extremely easy to modify for fit. For this reason, acrylic partials are often used for immediate partial placement- (i.e. the dentist or dental surgeon plans to extract teeth and the patient does not want to go any amount of time without teeth.) In these circumstances, your denturist will take impressions and fabricate the acrylic partial prior to the appointment for tooth removal. The partial is placed into the mouth immediately following tooth removal which decreases in the amount of bleeding and swelling while also allowing the patient to leave that tooth removal appointment with new teeth immediately- no downtime!
After the teeth have been inserted, it is recommended to keep in contact with the denturist and adjustments and/or liners are placed in the acrylic partial as the tissue (gums) heal as required. Acrylic partials are easily added to if a patient loses additional natural teeth in the future.
Our Process
What can I expect for Partial Dentures:
Partial Dentures – Acrylic Base:
1. Assessment of tissue as well as remaining natural teeth and discussion of treatment options (Example: Acrylic partial option, cast chromium cobalt framework, nylon flexible partial with no metal).
2. Impressions taken for partial dentures.
3. Bite registration to determine jaw relationship (when necessary) and shade match with natural surrounding teeth.
4. Try in – trial partial dentures are set in wax, patient assessment of look, assessment of technical aspects.
5. Insertion of new partial dentures.
