No. These are two different oral health solutions. A partial denture replaces back teeth with a removable solution. This is why partial dentures are known as “removable.” Bridges replace missing teeth with something permanent that one cannot easily remove.

You might feel a bit uncomfortable placing the partial dentures in your mouth. However, once you get used to putting them in and taking them out, you won’t mind them one bit. Just be sure to avoid forcing your partial denture into your mouth by biting down. Applying such force has the potential to break or bend the clasps or even damaging teeth. When in doubt, speak with your dentist.
No. In fact, patients are advised to take out their partial dentures at some point during the day and/or night. Many dentists recommend taking out partial dentures for back teeth before sleeping. You can put the partial dentures back in place upon waking.
Most patients attend follow-up appointments. These appointments address any sore spots, pressure points and possible adjustments for the perfect fit.
Dentists advise starting out with soft foods. Cut them into fairly small pieces so you can get used to eating with your partial dentures in place. Chew on each side of your mouth to maintain even pressure. Avoid especially hard and sticky foods.
Partial dentures for back teeth require a daily cleaning. Remove the denture, rinse off any leftover food particles, wet the brush and place the denture cleaner on it. Use a special denture-cleaning brush to gently scrub the surface. Avoid toothpaste for cleaning as it has abrasive particles that can cause damage to the base. Rinse the denture following the use of the cleanser.
