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.

"Dr. Purvis is the greatest dentist I’ve ever been too. He makes you feel welcomed and cared about. He genuinely cares about all his patients. He explains exactly what he’s doing, why he’s doing it, and how it’ll help. Dr. Shimer is the same! Understanding how to properly explain what they are doing to someone who doesn’t understand much about teeth, helps not only with anxiety, but also with helping to better understand how to care for teeth. Not to mention the dental assistants and hygienist are all amazing! Candy and Jessica are superb! And can’t forgot about the front desk ladies! The friendliest people I have ever met! Vicky, Nicole, Heather! They are all the best of the best of the best!"
