Partial Dentures: Partial dentures are done by clipping onto your existing teeth. The base structure can be of metal /plastic and the clips are mostly made up of metal that help to hold onto each Called as cast partial, this type of dentures is thinner and more durable. Sometimes, the entire structure is made of plastic, and is less seen when you smile unlike the metal clips which are more visible, when you smile.
