Having partials created usually requires 4 or 5 visits. First, a dentist will take x-rays to examine your teeth, jaws, and tissue. Then, he'll create impressions from which to make the dentures. A second appointment is often required to reshape the teeth (the reshaping is often minor). During the next visit, your dentist will test the shape and fit of your new dentures (adjustments will likely be necessary). The fourth appointment is when the newly-adjusted dentures are fitted and worn. Often, your dentist will want you to come back in a few days to report any soreness.
Dentures break easily and it usually happens by accident. Dropping them on the floor or knocking them off a shelf can easily cause chips or fractures. Often, your dentist can repair broken dentures if the damage is minimal. However, if there's a major fracture in the frame, a tooth falls out, or several teeth break, you may need to send them to a dental laboratory. Even partial denture repair work often requires specific tools that aren't found in your dentist's office.
