FAQs About Partial Dentures At Westport Plaza Dental Associates
 |
"Dr. Waldron or Dr. Morgan, what are partial dentures?"
|
| |
Partial dentures are
dentures that replace only a few missing teeth.
|
 |
"How do you wear a removable partial denture, Dr. Waldron
or Dr. Morgan?" |
| |
Removable partial
dentures are attached to your natural teeth with metal clasps or
devices called precision attachments.
|
 |
"How long will it
take to get used to wearing a partial denture?"
|
| |
Your partial denture may
feel awkward or bulky for the first few weeks, but your mouth will
eventually get used to it.
|
 |
"Dr. Waldron or Dr. Morgan, how long should you wear a partial denture?"
|
| |
Initially, you may want
to wear your partial denture all the time. Your dentist will give you
specific instructions on how long it should be worn and when it should
be removed. Generally, your mouth tissues need to rest so it is
advisable that you take out your partial denture at least 15 minutes
per day.
|
 |
"Will the partial denture change the way I speak?"
|
| |
Your partial denture may
help your speech. It can be difficult to speak clearly when you are
missing teeth. However, it also will take time to get used to it.
