A partial denture is removable just like a denture but only replaces a certain number of your teeth. Partial dentures are less expensive than the equivalent bridge or implant restoration and are the right restoration under some circumstances. A variety of newer, lightweight metal and non-metal frameworks are available which support the acrylic that most closely mimics your teeth and gums. Newer materials, such as nylon are being incorporated which offer new, unique ways to allow you to have a beautiful smile.
In-lays/On-lays
Sometimes effectively removing tooth decay requires the removal of a portion of your tooth. The removed portion is often replaced with a filling but it can also be replaced with a ceramic or gold inlay or onlay.
