Transitional Partial Denture

Explore Transitional Partial Dentures at Mountview Denture Clinic

Welcome to Mountview Denture Clinic, where we prioritize your unique dental needs with tailored solutions. Our focus on comprehensive care extends to transitional partial dentures, a specialized option designed for patients whose remaining teeth are beyond restoration but immediate extractions are not feasible for various reasons.

Understanding Transitional Partial Dentures

Transitional partial dentures are aptly named as they serve as a bridge during the transition period when some or all remaining teeth are not viable for restoration, yet immediate extractions aren’t advisable for physical or psychological reasons. In these cases, where extractions are planned over an extended period, providing patients with a functional prosthesis becomes crucial to maintain oral function and aesthetics.

Ideal Candidates for Transitional Partial Dentures:

Elderly Patients: Particularly those whose remaining teeth are not candidates for restoration.

Patients with Chronic Debilitating Diseases: In cases where multiple extractions are not a feasible option due to the patient’s health condition.

The Role of Transitional Dentures in Treatment:

1-Treatment Partial Dentures:

A treatment partial denture serves various purposes, often introduced to carry a tissue conditioner. This soft material is applied to the denture surface, facilitating a more equitable distribution of forces throughout the dental arch and promoting the health of oral tissues.

2-Interim Prosthesis:

Interim partial dentures come into play when age, health constraints, or time limitations make more definitive treatments challenging. These removable partial dentures are particularly beneficial for young patients who have lost one or more teeth due to trauma. As the patient matures, more definitive therapy can be considered.
