Most adults start off with a full set of 32 teeth.
Each tooth has a specific role to play for chewing food.
Your teeth also play a crucial role in the structure of your mouth and in relation to the other teeth. Leaving a gap if you lose a tooth can have serious consequences.
Replacing missing teeth is very important.
If they are not replaced, the remaining teeth have to do extra work to compensate the missing teeth.
They can be replaced using many options.
If some teeth are missing, and if the condition of the remaining teeth is good, cast partial denture can be given.
A Cast Partial Denture is a removable partial denture consisting of a cast metal framework that contains artificial teeth set in an acrylic resin.
When this patient came to Happy Smiles Dental Clinic, Pune she had many of her teeth missing.
Some of her remaining teeth needed treatment.
She also had a swelling with a tooth which was supporting an old dental bridge.
