​Partial Dentures in Cleveland and Seven Hills, OH

Living with missing teeth or teeth that are severely damaged can be challenging. Not only can they affect how you look, but they can also make it harder to eat, speak, and smile confidently. The good news is that you don't have to live with a damaged smile forever. At Ryba Dentistry, we can help you restore your smile's appearance, health, and function with partial dentures. 

​

What Are Partial Dentures?

​

Partial dentures are a restorative dental treatment used to replace missing teeth. They are often used after extractions to replace teeth that have experienced significant decay or have been severely damaged due to an injury. Typically, partial dentures are made from plastic and sometimes have metal clasps to help keep the prosthesis in place while speaking and chewing. To ensure that our patients' dentures look and function as naturally as possible, we carefully review all options with each individual before selecting the type of partial denture that will look the best and fulfill their particular needs.

​

How Do Partial Dentures Work?

​

Partial dentures are custom-fitted prostheses designed to lock into spaces where teeth are missing improving esthetics and chewing function. Partials are removable and are not intended to be worn indefinitely. They should be removed every night to clean thoroughly to preserve them and prevent their surrounding teeth from developing cavities.

​

Benefits of Partial Dentures

​

If you're missing one or more teeth, tooth replacement helps improve your oral health and regain your quality of life. First and foremost, partial dentures allow you to chew normally. They can enhance the appearance of your smile, make it easier to speak, and give you the confidence to share your smile with others. Additionally, partial dentures help prevent remaining natural teeth from drifting and protect them from excess wear by transferring some of the chewing forces to the denture.

​

How Many Teeth Can Partial Dentures Replace?

​

Because dentures are customized to fit your mouth perfectly, they're not one-size-fits-all. On the contrary, dentures can be made to fill in as little as a single tooth or several missing teeth on a patient's arch.

​

Partial Denture Cost

​

The cost for a partial denture depends on how many teeth are being replaced, which materials are used, and insurance coverages on removable dental prosthetics. Please contact our office for more information on what your dental insurance includes.
