Brooklyn NY Partial Dentures Dentists

If you have some teeth missing but still retain most of your natural teeth, you are a candidate for partial dentures. Advanced Dentistry & Implantology has provided partial dentures for our patients in Brooklyn, NY and Long Beach, Long Island, NY.

There are a few types of partial dentures:

Cast Framework Partial Dentures:
These partial dentures have a cast metal framework supporting denture acrylic and teeth. They are tooth supported by clasps and relatively stable. They are removable and are constructed in the same manner as a complete denture. If more teeth need to be removed from your mouth later, more teeth can be added to the partial.

Flexible Framework Partial Dentures:
These are made from a nylon-like material, also known as Flexite partials. This replaces the metal and acrylic of standard partial dentures. The clasps holding the partial to the teeth are made of the same pink material, generally indistinguishable from the gums, and is nearly unbreakable so it can be made thin, another advantage over acrylic framework partials.

Combination Metal Framework with Flexible Clasp Partials:
For patients with high esthetic demands needing the most stable framework possible, there are metal framework wit clasps made of the pink material used in Flexite partials. This allows hiding of the clasps, and alleviating the sore spot problems associated with flexible frameworks.
