Partial dentures can restore missing teeth and support your oral health. At DMD Dental, we offer metal partial dentures for long-lasting treatment.

What are Metal Partial Dentures?
Partial dentures restore missing teeth but can be removed as needed. They’re designed to mimic the appearance of teeth and gums, producing a whole smile without the need for implants, bridges, or other restorations. Metal partial dentures are more durable and have a lower profile than other types of partial dentures because they use metal wires to fit around the remaining teeth and hold the denture in place. In some cases, this means they are smaller and more comfortable.
What are the Benefits of Metal Partial Dentures?
Because metal is more resistant to wear, metal partial dentures can last much longer than Valplast and DuraFlex dentures, which are made entirely of moldable nylon and thermoplastic. Metal partial dentures can also be a lower-cost option. Finally, Dr. Du Mond can more easily adjust metal partial dentures if you experience changes in your mouth.
What Can I Expect From Metal Partial Dentures?
Dr. Du Mond will examine your mouth and develop a treatment plan. Impressions or scans are taken of your teeth, and the dentures will be developed and fabricated. Once your dentures are ready, Dr. Du Mond will ensure a good fit and make any adjustments as needed.
The Metal Partial Dentures Process and Beyond
Metal partial dentures can last for 5-10 years. Caring for your metal partial dentures is essential to getting long-lasting results. Make sure to keep them clean and soak them in water overnight, avoiding hot water. Using denture-cleaning tablets can help remove stains and plaque. Avoid eating hard or crunchy foods, which can damage the hardware, and keep them away from pets and children. Dr. Du Mond will examine your dentures and gums during your regular hygiene appointments to check for wear and ensure your mouth remains healthy.
