Partial Dentures
Cast Metal Frame
The cast metal partial denture is a popular choice for replacing missing teeth, featuring high-quality artificial teeth mounted on a sturdy metal frame called Cobalt Chrome. Made from an ultra-thin and lightweight cobalt-chromium alloy, this type of denture offers enhanced strength and stability. With proper care, it can serve as a durable, long-lasting solution for many years.
Flexible Partial Dentures
Flexible partial dentures are one of the three main types of partial dentures available for replacing missing teeth. They are often selected by patients who have allergies to cast metal or acrylic, as they are made from hypoallergenic materials. These dentures are crafted from a thin, heat-sensitive plastic that provides both comfort and a natural appearance. With proper care and cleaning, they can be durable enough to last for many years. However, their unique fabrication process makes relining and repairing them challenging, and any damage usually necessitates the creation of new flexible partial dentures.
