Partial Dentures
If you haven’t lost ALL of your teeth but are still looking for an effective solution for replacing multiple missing teeth while preserving your remaining natural teeth, then partial dentures may be a great solution for you.
A removable partial denture is used when one or more natural teeth still remain in the upper or lower jaw. Made of replacement teeth attached to a pink or gum-colored plastic base, partials help restore better functionality to the mouth. Similar to complete dentures, it is possible to have more permanent option cemented into place.
The benefits of partial dentures include restored functionality (such as improved chewing, speech, and oral function) as well as enhanced aesthetics. Partial dentures are crafted to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural-looking smile. They also prevent remaining natural teeth from shifting, helping them maintain proper alignment.
"I recently had to take my mom to Totem Lake Smiles Clinic for an urgent dental issue, and I cannot recommend Dr. Patil-Ghatkar enough. We were in a bit of a panic, but she was incredibly accommodating and managed to fit us in for a last-minute emergency appointment, which we truly appreciated. The entire team at the clinic was incredibly thorough and professional. The dental assistant was great with the X-rays, and Dr. Patil-Ghatkar performed a very careful examination. She provided an accurate diagnosis of the ailment and clearly explained the recommended next steps for treatment. If you are looking for a practice where the whole staff is skilled, kind, and truly cares about their patients, I highly suggest booking an appointment here."
