Partial and Full Dentures San Jose, CA
Custom, natural-looking partial and full dentures at El Paseo Dental in San Jose
Replacing missing teeth is necessary for aesthetic and restorative
reasons. Dentures support facial muscles and protect the facial
contour. They are custom-made for high levels of comfort and ease.
What are the types of Dentures?

Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are devised to restore missing teeth in a row. A metal framework, attached to the natural teeth, is used to hold the denture in place. Crowns are placed on either side of a fixed bridge to attach artificial teeth and act as anchors. The bridge is then cemented in place. Partial denture helps you get rid of unnecessary gaps and prevent teeth from changing positions. Partial dentures are of two types:Fixed Dentures:The bridge is permanently cemented to the jaw with a dental crown or it is attached below the gums using dental implants and abutments.
Removable Dentures: Artificial teeth are attached to a gum-colored pink plastic base. This gum-colored plate can be removed for cleaning and while sleeping. Removable partial dentures are more aesthetic in nature.
Full Dentures
Full dentures are for the people who have faced a major tooth
loss. They replace all the teeth in the mouth. Full dentures
fasten on to the gum line to stay in place and can be
surgically planted onto the gum using dental implants and
metal screws. They possess a full set of porcelain teeth and
are attached to a plastic base that mimics the natural color
of the gum. Complete or full dentures are of two types:
Conventional Denture:
A conventional denture is placed in the mouth 12 weeks after
the removal of teeth. The patient stays without teeth during
the healing period. A temporary and removable denture is
provided to carry out basic activities.
Immediate Complete Denture:
Your dentist will take impressions and exact measurement of
your teeth beforehand. After removing the remaining teeth, an
immediate complete denture is directly positioned in the jaw.
The patient doesn't need to stay without teeth during the
healing period.
