A partial denture is a dental appliance designed to replace one or more missing teeth while preserving the remaining natural teeth. It is typically made of a combination of metal and acrylic materials, providing a lightweight and comfortable fit. Partial dentures help restore the ability to chew and speak properly, as well as improve the overall appearance of a person's smile. These dentures are custom-made for each individual and can be easily removed for cleaning. They are held in place by clasps that attach to the remaining natural teeth, ensuring stability and functionality. Regular dental check-ups are important to maintain the fit and condition of a partial denture.
