Traditional dental bridges are fixed in place and cannot be removed. They are bonded securely to your adjacent teeth or implants. However, there are removable bridge options known as partial dentures, which function differently.
Partial dentures are designed to replace a few missing teeth and are used when some natural teeth still remain in the mouth. They are secured by attaching to your remaining teeth. Complete dentures, on the other hand, replace all of the teeth in either the upper or lower jaw and are used when there are no natural teeth left. Both types help restore function and improve the appearance of your smile.
With proper care, partial and complete dentures can last anywhere from 5 to 10 years. To keep them in good condition, you should clean them daily using a soft toothbrush and denture cleaner, soak them overnight in a denture solution, and handle them with care to avoid dropping or damaging them. It’s also important to schedule regular dental visits for adjustments and to ensure a proper fit over time.
