What Are Acrylic Dentures Made From?

Acrylic dentures are fabricated 100% from acrylic. They contain no metal substructure for support. Acrylic partial dentures are great for a temporary solution. Often, they are used as the means of replacing teeth when multiple teeth have to be removed.

The Benefits of an Acrylic Partial

If you know that one or more of your teeth need to be removed, an all-acrylic partial denture can be fabricated before the oral surgery appointment. At the appointment your dentist will insert the previously manufactured all-acrylic partial denture.

These are some of the benefits of this type of partial denture:

    Same day replacement- this means you will walk out of our office with a transformed smile.
    Can be made in our office- we make the denture right here in our lab and imaging center.
    Cost effective- this is a solution that can work in your budget.
    Well fitting base plate- with a tight fitting base plate, it will adhere to your jawbone, ridges, and palate best.

These are some of the reasons that you might consider this as your treatment plan option.
A Great Solution For Periodontal Disease
Some patients struggle with periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is a mouth disease of the bone and gums surrounding the teeth. This disease can be acute and the patient’s remaining dentition can be severely mobile.
The Difference Between a Traditional Partial and an Acrylic
If a traditional partial is used, the remaining dentition would be clasped and rested on by the metal substructure. In this case, an all-acrylic partial denture helps reduce the stresses on the remaining compromised teeth.

We find that some of our patients are able to use this treatment as an alternative to the metal clasps. They prefer it and find the advantages of this procedure.
