Partial Dentures Near You
Partial dentures are a dental appliance that provides natural-looking tooth replacement options while also helping to maintain the natural spacing and alignment of your natural teeth as well as your jawbone and facial muscles.
They are a less invasive and quicker option to replace missing teeth and restore a natural smile. At Inglewood Family Dental, we offer partial denture solutions in Calgary for patients with one or more missing teeth! We are also pleased to offer traditional, immediate partial dentures and denture relines.
What are Partial Dentures?
Partial dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace one or more missing teeth while preserving your natural teeth.
Unlike full dentures, which replace an entire arch of teeth, partial dentures fill the gaps created by missing teeth. They work alongside your remaining teeth to restore function and appearance. They are also custom-made to fit comfortably and blend seamlessly with your natural smile.
Who Benefits from Partial Dentures?
- Adults with a few missing teeth: Partial dentures work well for those with some missing teeth who still have healthy natural teeth.
- Patients looking for a cost-effective option: They offer an affordable way to replace teeth without surgery or more invasive procedures.
- Individuals wanting a removable solution: Partial dentures can be removed easily, making cleaning and maintenance straightforward.
- Those wanting a natural appearance: Designed to match the shape and color of your existing teeth, partial dentures blend seamlessly with your smile.

Benefits of Partial Dentures
- Improved Function: Partial dentures restore your ability to chew food properly and speak more clearly, making everyday activities more comfortable.
- Better Facial Structure: Missing teeth can cause the face to appear sunken or aged over time. Partial dentures can help maintain the natural shape of your face, improving your overall appearance.
- Prevention of Shifting Teeth: When teeth are missing, the surrounding teeth may shift out of place. Partial dentures fill these gaps and help keep your natural teeth in proper alignment.
- Convenient and Hygienic: Partial dentures are removable, allowing you to clean them thoroughly. This convenience promotes better oral hygiene and makes them easy to maintain.

Can You Eat with Partial Dentures?
When eating with a partial denture, it is recommended that you chew evenly on both sides of your mouth to ensure the pressure on both sides is the same. You should try your best to avoid foods that are extremely hard or sticky since these can decrease the capability of your denture. While you are in your adjustment period, you should avoid chewing gum.
Do You Need Adhesive for Partial Dentures?
If your dentures are fitted properly, there should not be any need for dental adhesive. If you are having issues with your dentures staying in place and think you need adhesive, talk to your dentist. They will likely attempt to fix the issue before having you try adhesive. It is possible that your dentures no longer stay in place just due to the change in the structure of your mouth over the years.
How many teeth can partial dentures replace?
Partial dentures are designed to replace several missing teeth but not an entire arch. The exact number of teeth they can replace varies depending on your specific needs and the extent of tooth loss. Typically, partial dentures are recommended when there are three or more missing teeth in a row.
Does insurance cover partial dentures?
Many dental insurance plans include partial dentures as part of their coverage for major restorative services. However, the level of coverage varies by plan. It’s best that you review your policy or check with your provider to confirm what is included.
