<h1 itemprop="headline" class="text-contrast DGspeakableHeadline">Partial Denture for One Missing Tooth<span> The Bronx, NY</span></h1>
<p class="DGspeakableP1">When a patient has a single missing tooth or needs only one tooth extracted, there are multiple replacement options. For many patients, a partial denture is one of the leading options. Partial dentures for one missing tooth are removable dental appliances that hook onto a patient's natural teeth and contain a prosthetic tooth mounted in pink resin to match the patient's gums.</p>
<p class="DGspeakableP2">Partial dentures for one missing tooth are available at University Dental Associates in The Bronx and the surrounding area.

<p>When a tooth is missing, the other teeth move and fill the space. They do not do this evenly, meaning this movement makes things worse. It also becomes more difficult to bite or chew with a missing tooth.</p>
<p>Depending on the patient’s needs, replacing a missing tooth with a prosthetic can be a good way to help keep the entire mouth healthy. Having a full set of teeth, natural or not, also improves a person's smile. Partial removable dentures is a tooth-replacement option that can be used for only one missing tooth, in place of an implant or prosthetic.</p>

To get this custom fit, University Dental Associates takes impressions of the mouth before having the denture made. The finished product consists of pink resin and one or more prosthetic teeth.</p>
<p>Although the partial denture may feel tight and uncomfortable at first, most patients get used to it in a matter of weeks. A partial denture can help with chewing but should be removed for sleep. It is important to keep the apparatus scrupulously clean to avoid problems with bacteria.</p>

<h2 itemprop="alternativeHeadline" class="text-contrast">Other Options for Replacing a Single Missing Tooth</h2>
<div class="divider divider-solid"></div>
<p>A partial denture is a quick, common solution for replacing a tooth, but there are alternatives. The treatment chosen depends on the patient's situation and needs. When a replacement tooth is required, several choices are available:
<ul class="bullet-list">
<li><b>Implants.</b> Dental implants are part of a long-term solution for missing teeth. A dentist can place implants in a patient's jaw and attach false teeth to them. They are incredibly durable and, <a title="Read more about Who can benefit?" href="https://www.aaid-implant.org/dental-implants/who-can-benefit/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: underline;" class="TLBC" id="ALR-Partial-Denture-for-One-Missing-Tooth">according to the American Academy of Implant Dentistry</a>, may help prevent bone loss around a tooth extraction. However, implant placement is more invasive than getting a partial denture. Depending on the type of implant, it may be several months before the final installation of the prosthetic tooth.</li>
<li><b>Bridges.</b> A dental bridge consists of a group of crowns that attach to healthy teeth on either side of the gap. It is necessary to reduce the healthy teeth that will support a bridge to allow crowns to go over them. The three or more crowns that make up the dental bridge are a single piece with no way to floss between them. Additionally, extra care is needed to clean under the pontic, or part that fills the gap.</li>
<li><b>A combination of solutions.</b> Implant-supported bridges are an option for those without the necessary natural teeth. Similarly, implant-supported dentures, which can replace the entire upper arch, lower arch, or both, are also an option for some people. Implants last a long time with proper care, but they do sometimes fail. Because dental implants fuse to the jawbone and require good overall health to ensure healing, not every patient is a candidate.</li>
</ul>
