Whether you call them dentures, partials or plates, removable replacement appliances have proven to be an effective low cost alternative to replace missing teeth. While the various devices have been around for quite a while, new technology has greatly improved the appearance and the ability to obtain the proper fit of the appliance. Of course fixed bridgework offers better performance and is aesthetically pleasing. Here too technology has increased the options for patients. For example many of our patients choose to replace their removable partials with the "Maryland Bridge". This is a new fixed bridge appliance that is a fraction of the cost of a conventional bridge and offers excellent aesthetics and performance. Imagine getting rid of those unsightly metal clasps used to secure removable bridgework. Whichever you choose remember that regular check-ups and routine maintenance are required to maintain the good look, feel, and fit of most all appliances. We can also adjust, repair and modify most appliances with a short turnaround time.
