Acrylic partial dentures are a temporary solution for replacing missing teeth. They are considered temporary because they are considered less hygienic and could possibly damage the remaining teeth. They are made from acrylic which is a brittle material and requires thickness to create strength.This means that they can feel bulky in the mouth and needs to cover more of the palate and gums.
However, acrylic partials allow for future additions so these are a good option if you expect to lose more teeth in the future. Each acrylic partial denture, no matter how small, uses the same high quality acrylic and denture teeth as our full denture range. The teeth used on the dentures are selected based on personal preference or are matched to look as natural and closest to your natural teeth. Acrylic dentures can have metal clasps which help to hold the denture in place by clipping onto remaining teeth.
