I have had a metal partial for years and would not change it for anything. I have learned after many years how to fine tune my clasp adjustments myself. Not recommended for most but once you learn how to do it its a game changer. Nothing better than a great fitting partial.
Can I get the metal ones for my full mouth? In 3-4 months I can get my dentures but I heard the bottoms ones move around a lot and you can't really eat with them
I am glad you made this video! I went to my dentist and got fitted for a partial. I have a metal allergy, and I told my dentist. He had no idea they make partials without metal. I pick mine up tomorrow, so excited, I hope its what I wanted. Great information!
Hello Luke I enjoy your videos but may I make a suggestion please drop the music as it is difficult to hear and understand what you are saying as the music is very distracting and somewhat loud. Thank you for your videos!
@@muthaluva My computer the volume would not go loud enough. It does have a low setting that is inherent in the Envy HP notebook. I wish I could have heard him better so maybe having the music not playing would help some of us.
Your information is fantastic. But for those of us who are hearing impaired, the music makes it difficult to distinguish your voice. Please consider turning down or off the music. Thank you so much!!!
Why do these videos always have distracting music that makes it difficult to understand the dialogue? There's absolutely no reason to use music in an informative video. It's not a workout video!
For the upper, which ones causes the least lisping? I got partials a few years ago but even with adjustments had a strong lisp. I don't want to sound funny when talking.
Bottom teeth missing only 7 front and two side….metal partial denture takes about three week to get use to it. After a month denture tighten up to give a great fit no complaint so fair….follow up with dentist for checkup!
I had a lower partial made, three teeth one side and two on the other. Made of metal frame, dentist did not discuss options at all. Cannot wear it, have bones inside mouth that protrude from gum for one thing, and the partial will not seat. It hurts, metal sticking through the pink gum formed, and there is a ledge that protrudes over the outside of the gum where it seems food would collect under the partial. Have not been able to eat with it and had about six weeks. Paid him well over $2K with insurance. Think he bilked me good. I did not know there were options such as you shown. They spent very little time with me. I am 79 so I guess they think I will not need it long so who cares?
I have an upper denture (so no metal) but I do have a lower partial that is the metal. When I first got them it was a wonderful thing or at least I thought it was. Years later I had to have a bottom tooth pulled and had been told when I got the partial to begin that another tooth could be added if that happened. Well by that time my great dentist had retired so I had to find another one but no one I knew had any false teeth. The dentist I ended up with made a new upper denture and another lower metal partial. The partial has never stayed in no matter how much adhesive I put on it and would come up almost as quick as I put it in. And I never could eat or drink with them in so I always had to get take out orders at restaurants and family cook outs to eat at home without my teeth. I am getting all new dentures and a new partial with no metal. They call theirs ComfiLyte and the whole name on the partial is not complete on my paper but I can see Immediate Mandibular Partial-Resin. Anyway I am on my third visit which the call the Wax Bite Registration (most of this stuff I have to look up on the web) but I have never heard of it before and never had it done. The actual video I saw was an Aspen Dental video. I guess it depends on the dentist and how they work. Like I said my first partial was the metal kind and I loved it. The second was also a metal and I hated it and these new teeth will not have any metal in the partial and not as thick and as far back in the roof of my mouth for the top denture. Everybody that reads this pray for me. I am 66 and would love new teeth as a birthday present in August!
I am missing one front teeth. I am using acrylic plastic denture. I am finding it very uncomfortable and therefore I cannot wear them. I am thinking about the metal partial denture- will this be better and more comfortable than the acrylic one to wear? If i lose bother teeth, could you add another denture to the metal? let me know. Thanks
I have the flexible without metal and I HATE it. I would never recommend it. It’s uncomfortable and It hurts so much that I cannot eat with it even though it was adjusted many times. I know someone who has the metal and loves it.
I just had partials put in 3 weeks ago and they are all wrong, I have big bones like in the bottom and the partial keeps cutting into the bones. the dentist had shaved the partial down so far now that it had a big gap and it still is cutting in my gums. idk what to do. I'm so upset! I don't have money for anything else, can they remake it? can I call my insurance? tell them not to pay? I need help . all Ican do is cry
I got the metal denture last week and i hate them. I'm disable and that metal denture made it harder for me to communicate. So it's not suitable for me
I had a metal partial for my upper and it made my back anchor tooth loose! Now I hve no back teeth on either top! What do I do now? Afraid if I stick w metal it's going to cause my good ones to go loose that are in front?
Hello Doctor! I am 45 years old and I have four missing teeth in my upper jaw, two on each side. I am thinking of using a metallic partial prosthesis but I have many doubts and I do not know what to do. Do the retaining hooks spoil the healthy parts where they are caught? Do you recommend it to me? Do you eat well with it? Greetings from Spain!
Por mas que estas protesis semiflexibles sean comodas estas sacrificando una resecion gingival (perdida osea ) en donde estas apollando estas protesis la fuerza aplicada en una protesis rigida se nivelara y no habra tanta perdida osea tardara mas en ocurrir las protesis flexibles no son la opcion mas conveniente ya q si son mas comodas pero la perdida de hueso es mayor.
@@lizbethzepedalee1148 ¡Hola Lizbeth! ¿Es entonces una buena opción una prótesis parcial metálica, un esquelético, para paliar la falta de cuatro muelas en el maxilar superior? Es que tengo muchas dudas y no me decido a usarla. ¿Se come bien con ella? ¿Los ganchos retenedores provocan caries? Qué dilema😑
Claro q sí se adapta totalmente y por tu edad eres más propenso a perder hueso es por eso q lo más importante es que la prótesis no te perjudique y cuide tus tejidos y ayude a q la fuerza que ejerzas en esas zonas edentulas (sin dientes) se distribuya hacia toda la prótesis. La otra opción serían los implantes.
Great video, but get rid of the music and get a better microphone. Sometimes hard to understand and hope the subtitles are accurate...did you say that 50% of people use metal partials?
May i ask how are the metal ones better than the plastic, can you eat alot better with the metal ones i heard you cant really eat with the plastic ones without it moving up and down. I was supposed to only be getting my lower row done and he ended up cutting all of them.
Metal denture design gets its support from teeth but non metal one sits on gum ..so its not just appearance that matters ..after a while non metal denture will cause gum recession and tooth decay
Hi you are absolutely right,I just got mine with 3 missing teeth on the back and I’m so upset now ,,,,the are NOT GOOD to eat the are good for show ,,,,They hurt,,They fall off, all the food gets stuck in the gum, so so so unhappy
@@MightyCrazy así es . Si quedan dientes sanos ,es mejor cuidarlos y preservarlos . La prótesis parcial de material semiflexible es una buena solución,la llevo ocupando un tiempo y ningún problema
i like your video very much but unfortunately i'm very poor i can't go the path you mentioned because i don't have money to get teeth so i just watch your video
Hi, my name is Lucas Oliveira, I work with the polishing and machining of this metal here in Brazil, removable partial dentures, I am very good in this area, if you need someone with experience just call
I tried to e mail you guys for a quotation but it wouldn’t let me do so do you have another e mail address please I am very interested in placing an order ASAP, thank you
The Metal Clasp will destroy your teeth. Only flex clear site Flex site . I seen clear invisible . I’m having one made. But metal partial no good In USA cost 2000 The upper middle can cause some sores I think they all cause sores 😂
