If your dentist refuses to make a new partial denture fit, you should first discuss your concerns directly with them to understand their reasoning. If that doesn't resolve the issue, consider seeking a second opinion from another dentist for a professional evaluation. Additionally, you could contact your dental insurance provider if applicable, as they may have resources for disputes or coverage for a new fitting. If the problem persists, you may also file a complaint with your local dental board or regulatory authority.
A partial is an artificial body part, very much like a prosthetic leg or a glass eye. It takes time to adjust to wearing it. Sometimes fine adjustments need to be made by the dentist to get it to fit perfectly. Your dentist should make these adjustments at little or no charge, at least for the first few months after the initial placement. If you are unable to make the adjustment to wearing the partial after several months, you should discuss your options with your dentist. You may be a candidate for dental implants. They are more expensive than a partial, but they are far more easy to get used to, and they are a permanent alternative to partials.
