Complete Dentures vs. Partial Dentures

Complete dentures are used when you need a replacement for all your teeth and come in 2 types—conventional and immediate. Conventional dentures are placed about 8–12 weeks after all teeth have been extracted, whereas immediate dentures are placed right away but require more adjustments as gums and bones shrink over time.

Partial dentures replace only a few missing teeth. The partial dentures are held in place by clasps that fit onto the surrounding teeth.

Depending on your oral health, your dentist can assess your teeth and gums to determine what type of dentures meets your needs.

Proper Denture Care

Just like your natural teeth, dentures can still have plaque and tartar buildup that can spread to your natural teeth and gums. To avoid negatively impacting your oral health, it’s important to:

Rinse off food particles from your dentures
Use denture cleaner and a soft toothbrush to scrub off bacteria
Use a recommended denture cleaner
