Your New Partial

     We're betting that your teeth feel a lot stronger with your new partial.  While it's true that they are stronger, keep in mind that partials themselves can be fragile.  Wires and band can bend if ill-treated, and the partial can break if you drop it.  Clean it over a towel just to be safe.  Spend a little extra time cleaning the clasp teeth, where food often gets trapped.  And please let us know if you experience any soreness that may indicate the need to fine-tune your partial.
