Partials FAQ Ask The Dentist Corinne Scalzitti

Question:
Partials: I used to smile, but not anymore. When I do smile I hold my head down because of the glittering metal from my partial.

Can't they make partials without the silver metal? ....Visitor from IL

Answer:
There are partial dentures that have no metal. Two of them are called Cusil and Valplast.

They generally require no tooth preparation. I have made many Valplast partial dentures and patients love them because they are soft and comfortable and stay in well. I have not personally made Cusil partial dentures, but think they may also be a good choice for you.

Dentistry has many other choices for replacing missing teeth including implants and mini-dental implants that may interest you. Keep up your research and look for a local dentist who will work with you for a beautiful solution.
