Partial Dentures
Partial Dentures are recommended in complex dental
situations
to restore support and proper function. These bridges
are constructed of ceramic and metal and require
creation of a study model made from impressions. The
bridge is also fitted with ceramic teeth to replicate
the missing teeth and combined with metal that is shaped
to fit the inside contours of the mouth. Multiple visits
are required for adjustments to the bite and fit of the
appliance. Fixed bridges require meticulous cleaning
usually with a threading floss. Removable bridgework
requires meticulous cleaning after meals and soaking in
a solution to remove plaque and bacteria.
