More About Partial Denture Dentists Houston - Removable partial dentures may use metal clasps that attach to remaining natural teeth, often referred to as abutments. A crown is usually added to the abutment teeth to provide the denture with added strength and give a better fit. Another type of clip called a precision attachment may also be used with this denture. Precision attachments generally look better and are nearly invisible when the denture is in place.
Learning to insert your removable partial denture is going to take a little practice. The denture will feel a little awkward at first, but within a few days you should become accustomed quite nicely to it. A well made denture should attach fairly easily and should never require forcing, which might break the clips. Biting down to place your dentures is a no-no, and again, you don't want to risk breaking your brand new denture. Establish good habits in the beginning and your dentures should last longer.
Partial dentures can also be installed permanently, and are generally referred to as fixed dentures. Again, crowns will be installed to the abutment teeth to beef up support. The partial denture may then be bonded directly to the abutment teeth for a secure permanent fit.
