PARTIAL DENTURES

Partial dentures are artificial replacement teeth used when there are several natural teeth missing but also not enough to merit a complete replacement with full arch dentures. If you’ve lost one or more teeth due to an accident, decay, or an extraction in the past, your dentist may suggest this option.
