Missing a single tooth can affect your smile, your bite, and your confidence. Whether you’re an adult who’s lost a tooth due to injury or decay, or a child awaiting permanent teeth, a short-span thermoplastic Nesbit denture may be the perfect solution.
At Cohen Cosmetic and Emergency Denture Clinic, 1849 Yonge Street at Davisville, Toronto Midtown Location we design and fit custom (Nesbit) dentures—a small, comfortable, and flexible way to fill gaps and restore your natural smile.
What Is a Nesbit Denture?
A Nesbit denture is a removable partial denture designed to replace one or several front, side, back teeth on one side of the upper or lower arch. Made of flexible thermoplastic material, it comfortably hugs the gums and natural teeth without metal clasps. The roof of the mouth IS NOT covered or there is NO material behind lower front teeth
This type of denture is named after the Nesbit design, which is small, lightweight, and easy to wear—perfect for filling a several missing teeth space without needing a full partial denture.
Why Thermoplastic?
Unlike traditional acrylic or metal-based partials, thermoplastic Nesbit dentures are:
✅ Flexible – They adapt to the movement of your mouth and provide a soft, comfortable fit.
✅ Metal-free – No visible wires or metal clasps—just a natural look.
✅ Lightweight – Easy to wear and carry, especially for children and first-time denture users.
✅ Durable – The material is strong and resistant to cracking or breaking under pressure.
✅ Biocompatible – Ideal for those with allergies or sensitivities to metal or acrylic.
Comfort for Adults
Adults often lose a single tooth due to injury, gum disease, or dental extraction. A Nesbit denture is a great choice for:
Those who choose a discreet resonably priced solution instead of implants or bridges
Those who want a non-invasive solution
Individuals looking for an affordable cosmetic fix
Adults and Children with healthy and stable neighboring teeth
Because it’s so discreet, many adults choose Nesbit dentures for front-tooth replacements to regain a natural-looking smile with minimal dental work.
