The most common type of partial dentures has a metal framework. Any denture procedure begins with a digital X-ray for the most current image of what you need to be restored. If you’re a suitable candidate, Dr. Hurtado will measure your mouth and build a model so they can construct your dentures as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Partial dentures with metal frames connect to existing teeth, keeping them in place and you feeling secure—all without dental adhesives.\

Acrylic partial dentures are a less expensive option for tooth replacement; however, they’re also less durable than metal ones. They are typically used to replace front teeth as a temporary solution while the dentist constructs permanent partials or bridges.
