What Are Removable Partial Dentures?
Removable Partial Dentures (RPDs) are custom-made dental appliances that replace one or more missing teeth. Unlike full dentures, which replace an entire arch, RPDs are designed to fit around your remaining natural teeth. They typically consist of a lightweight metal or acrylic framework supporting artificial teeth and gum-colored bases.
RPDs are removable, meaning you can take them out to clean and sleep if needed. This simplicity makes them a practical, economical choice for many adults seeking restoration.
Why Choose Removable Partial Dentures?
Many patients feel overwhelmed by the cost or commitment of implants or fixed bridges. That’s where Removable Partial Dentures (RPDs) shine—they offer numerous compelling advantages:
Compared to implants or fixed bridges, RPDs are significantly less expensive. This makes them a real option for individuals and families managing healthcare budgets.
Unlike conventional bridges, RPDs don’t require grinding down healthy teeth. They simply wrap around your natural teeth for support.
You can often begin wearing your partial denture within a few weeks—no long wait for healing.
If you lose another tooth later, your RPD can usually be modified to include a new replacement, making it adaptable to changing dental needs.
Even a small gap can impact speech or eating. RPDs fill that gap, restore function, and help you smile and socialize with greater ease.
Types of Partial Dentures
We offer partial dentures that best match each patient’s needs:
Traditional RPDs use discreet metal clasps to attach to healthy teeth. A strong acrylic base holds the replacement teeth securely.
For a more discreet, seamless appearance, we can use precision attachments integrated inside crowns—hiding the supporting mechanism altogether.
Made from lightweight polyamide, these RPDs are nearly transparent and very comfortable—but may lack long-term durability compared to acrylic or cast-metal types.
We’ll help you choose the style that suits your priorities—whether cost, comfort, or aesthetics.
Caring for Your Removable Partial Denture
RPDs are easy to care for, but they do require daily cleaning and maintenance:
• Brush gently with a denture brush and mild soap (avoid regular toothpaste which can scratch)
• Soak overnight in a cleanser or plain water to keep it fresh
• Maintain oral hygiene—brushing your natural teeth and gums to prevent decay or recession
• Bring your RPD to check-ups so we can examine its fit and the health of your mouth
With good care, your partial denture can last several years—and if your mouth changes, we can adjust or remake it cost-effectively.
Is a Removable Partial Denture Right for You?
RPDs are an excellent option for people who:
• Are not ready for implants because of cost, medical conditions, or bone limitations
• Want a transitional solution before upgrading to implants
• Prefer something easier to clean and adjust than fixed prosthetics
However, if you desire a permanent, implant-supported or fixed solution, we’re happy to guide you toward Zirconia Crowns and Bridges or Implant-supported dentures—depending on your needs and resources.
