What Are Dentures & Partial Dentures?
Full dentures are used when all of the natural teeth are missing, while partial dentures are designed to replace several missing teeth when some healthy natural teeth remain. Both types consist of prosthetic teeth attached to a gum-colored base that rests on the gums and jawbone. Modern dentures are made from high-quality, lifelike materials and are designed for a comfortable, secure fit. Our team works closely with each patient to ensure their dentures look natural and function properly, providing a reliable solution for missing teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dentures & Partial Dentures FAQs
What are dentures and partial dentures?
Dentures and partial dentures are removable prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Full dentures are used when all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw are missing, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. At Briggs Family Dental, we create custom dentures and partial dentures using high-quality materials that mimic the appearance of natural teeth and gums, providing a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing solution for tooth loss.
What are the benefits of dentures and partial dentures?
Dentures and partial dentures offer numerous benefits for patients with missing teeth, including:
- Improving your ability to speak, eat, and smile with confidence
- Restoring your facial structure and preventing a sunken appearance
- Enhancing your overall quality of life and self-esteem
- Providing a removable and affordable solution for tooth loss
- Preventing remaining teeth from shifting out of position (partial dentures)
- Distributing biting forces evenly across your jaw (full dentures)
At Briggs Family Dental, we believe that dentures and partial dentures can significantly improve your oral health and well-being, helping you enjoy life to the fullest.
What types of dentures are available?
At Briggs Family Dental, we offer several types of dentures to meet our patients’ diverse needs:
- Conventional full dentures: Custom-crafted and placed after any remaining teeth have been extracted and the gum tissue has healed, usually about 8–12 weeks after extraction.
- Immediate full dentures: Pre-made and placed immediately after tooth extraction, allowing you to have teeth during the healing process. They may require adjustments as your gums and bones heal and change shape.
- Partial dentures: Used when some natural teeth remain, designed to fit around and attach to your existing teeth using metal clasps or precision attachments.
- Implant-supported dentures: Anchored to dental implants, providing unparalleled stability and comfort compared to traditional dentures.
Dr. Briggs will work with you to determine the best type of denture for your unique situation, ensuring optimal comfort, function, and aesthetics.
How are dentures and partial dentures made?
Creating custom dentures and partial dentures typically involves several steps:
- Initial consultation: Dr. Briggs will assess your oral health, discuss your goals and preferences, and take impressions and measurements of your mouth.
- Fabrication: Our skilled dental lab technicians use your impressions and specifications to create a precise model of your mouth, which is then used to craft your custom dentures or partial dentures.
- Try-in and adjustments: You’ll have the opportunity to try on your new dentures or partial dentures, and Dr. Briggs will make any necessary adjustments to ensure a comfortable, secure fit.
- Final delivery: Once adjustments are complete, your dentures or partial dentures will be expertly polished and delivered, along with care instructions and a follow-up appointment schedule.
At Briggs Family Dental, we use advanced materials and techniques to create dentures and partial dentures that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing—helping you regain your smile and confidence.
How long does it take to get used to wearing dentures or partial dentures?
Adjusting to new dentures or partial dentures can take some time, typically a few weeks to a couple of months. During this adaptation period, you may experience some minor discomfort, increased saliva flow, and difficulty speaking or eating. These issues should subside as your mouth adjusts to the new prosthetic. At Briggs Family Dental, we will provide you with guidance on how to care for your dentures or partial dentures, as well as tips for making the transition as smooth as possible. Regular follow-up appointments will ensure that your dentures or partial dentures continue to fit comfortably and function optimally.
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
While it is possible to sleep with your dentures in, we generally recommend removing them at night to give your gums and jawbone a chance to rest and recover. Removing your dentures before bed also allows you to clean them thoroughly and soak them in a denture-soaking solution to keep them fresh and free from bacteria. If you have any concerns about sleeping with or without your dentures, Dr. Briggs will be happy to provide personalized guidance based on your unique situation.
How often should I replace my dentures or partial dentures?
On average, dentures and partial dentures should be replaced every 5-7 years. However, the lifespan of your prosthetic may vary depending on factors such as the quality of the materials used, your oral hygiene habits, and any changes in your mouth’s structure. It’s essential to attend regular check-ups at Briggs Family Dental so that Dr. Briggs can assess the fit and condition of your dentures or partial dentures and determine when a replacement is necessary. If you notice any changes in the fit, comfort, or appearance of your prosthetic, contact our office right away.
How do I care for my dentures or partial dentures?
Proper care and maintenance are essential for keeping your dentures or partial dentures clean, fresh, and functioning optimally. We recommend the following care guidelines:
- Brush daily: Use a soft-bristled brush and non-abrasive denture cleaner to remove food particles and plaque.
- Rinse after meals: Rinse your dentures or partial dentures after each meal to prevent staining and buildup.
- Soak overnight: Place your dentures or partial dentures in a denture-soaking solution to keep them moist and prevent them from losing their shape.
- Handle with care: Avoid dropping or damaging your dentures or partial dentures by handling them carefully.
- Maintain oral hygiene: Brush your gums, tongue, and any remaining natural teeth twice daily to prevent gum disease and maintain good oral health.
- Schedule regular check-ups: Visit Briggs Family Dental so Dr. Briggs can ensure your dentures or partial dentures fit properly and your oral health stays on track.
If you have any questions or concerns about caring for your dentures or partial dentures, our knowledgeable team is always here to help.
Are there any alternatives to traditional dentures or partial dentures?
Yes, there are alternative tooth replacement options available, depending on your specific needs and preferences:
- Dental implants: Artificial tooth roots surgically placed into the jawbone to support a crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants provide unmatched stability, comfort, and longevity compared to traditional dentures or partial dentures.
- Fixed bridges: Non-removable prosthetics consisting of one or more artificial teeth anchored to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Fixed bridges are a stable, durable solution for replacing one or more missing teeth in a row.
Dr. Briggs will review all your tooth replacement options and help you make an informed decision based on your unique situation, goals, and budget.
