Flexi Partial Denture

Flexible partial dentures

Flexible partial dentures are designed to replace a single tooth or a few teeth rather than a full set of teeth. Rather than connecting to existing teeth with a metal clasp, they also have a comfortable, more aesthetically pleasing flexible metal clasp.

Flexible partial dentures are most commonly used as a temporary tooth loss solution while awaiting a more permanent fix  (such as implant dentures). They are considerably more difficult to repair and reline than traditional dentures so their usable life is shorter. However, on some occasions they are used as a permanent tooth replacement – particularly for people who may not be a good candidate for bridgework or implants.
