In short, it&#8217;s a removable partial denture generally used as a temporary tooth replacement.

You may also see this referred to as temporary dentures or a flipper denture.<\/p>    <p>Depending on the exact number of teeth you are missing, a flipper tooth may resemble a retainer with clasps that help hold it in place around the existing teeth. <\/p>   <div class=\"wp-block-image\"> <figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"999\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/02\/Depositphotos_159677672_s-2019.jpg\" alt=\"Dental flipper and a good smile\" class=\"wp-image-12158\" style=\"width:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/02\/Depositphotos_159677672_s-2019.jpg 999w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/02\/Depositphotos_159677672_s-2019-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/02\/Depositphotos_159677672_s-2019-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 999px) 100vw, 999px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A dental flipper is a temporary solution for a broken or missing tooth<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>   <p>So why would you need a flipper?<\/p>    <p>Replacing missing teeth due to disease, decay, or damage is often a lengthy process. When a tooth is extracted, the gums and the bone beneath it become sensitive and require at least six weeks to over six months to completely heal before you can get a permanent replacement. <\/p>    <p>This is because losing natural teeth can change the shape of the bone structure of the jaw as well as the underlying gum tissue.<\/p>    <p>These changes can negatively affect the fit of permanent <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"dental implants (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/teeth-implants-cost\/\" target=\"_blank\">dental implants<\/a> or dentures meant for long-term wear. In such circumstances, you may have the option of getting a temporary false tooth.<\/p>    <h2 id=\"what-is-a-flipper-tooth-made-of\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a flipper tooth made of?<\/h2>    <p>A flipper tooth is usually made of a pink acrylic that exactly matches the color of your gums and may have brackets. It can be created before you go to your dental appointment. <\/p>    <p>This acrylic structure attaches to your natural teeth on either side of the empty space left behind by your missing tooth. Because of this, it is extremely easy for you to take out this denture and put it back at any time you want. It also makes it a lot easier to clean.<\/p>    <p>Look at the video below to watch how a natural tooth is extracted and replaced with an acrylic dental flipper.<\/p>    <figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div style=\"display: contents;\" >  <div data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-uhn6la_s3ii\" class=\"arve\"> \t<div class=\"arve-inner\"> \t\t<div class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\"> \t\t\t<div class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.250000%\"><\/div> \t\t\t<iframe allow=\"accelerometer &#039;none&#039;;autoplay &#039;none&#039;;camera &#039;none&#039;;ch-ua &#039;none&#039;;clipboard-read &#039;none&#039;;clipboard-write;display-capture &#039;none&#039;;encrypted-media &#039;none&#039;;gamepad &#039;none&#039;;geolocation &#039;none&#039;;gyroscope &#039;none&#039;;hid &#039;none&#039;;identity-credentials-get &#039;none&#039;;idle-detection &#039;none&#039;;keyboard-map &#039;none&#039;;local-fonts &#039;none&#039;;magnetometer &#039;none&#039;;microphone &#039;none&#039;;midi &#039;none&#039;;payment &#039;none&#039;;picture-in-picture;publickey-credentials-create &#039;none&#039;;publickey-credentials-get &#039;none&#039;;screen-wake-lock &#039;none&#039;;serial &#039;none&#039;;sync-xhr;usb &#039;none&#039;;window-management &#039;none&#039;;xr-spatial-tracking &#039;none&#039;;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" credentialless data-arve=\"arve-youtube-uhn6la_s3ii\" data-lenis-prevent=\"\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/uHn6LA_S3II?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"0\" loading=\"lazy\" name=\"\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/uHn6LA_S3II?feature=oembed&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autoplay=0\" title=\"\" width=\"0\"><\/iframe> \t\t\t \t\t<\/div> \t\t \t<\/div> \t \t \t <\/div> <\/div><\/figure>    <p><\/p>    <h2 id=\"should-you-use-dental-flippers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should you use dental flippers?<\/h2>    <p>If you have a missing tooth or teeth and you are looking for temporary tooth replacement options, your dentist may suggest  teeth flippers.

This prevents these surrounding teeth from shifting. <\/li>    <li><strong>Convenient:<\/strong> Dental flippers are easy to wear and can be taken out for cleaning. <\/li>    <li><strong>Comfortable:<\/strong> This type of temporary denture is much more comfortable and more aesthetically pleasing than some alternatives.<\/li>    <li><strong>Affordability:<\/strong> A flipper denture is generally cheaper than other tooth replacements.<\/li>    <li><strong>Easy to prepare:<\/strong> Dental flippers are made quickly, generally requiring one to two days on average. If you are waiting for an implant, flippers can be a good alternative in the meantime.<\/li> <\/ul>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drawbacks of a dental flipper<\/h3>    <p>&nbsp;While a dental flipper is good in some applications, there are also some drawbacks:<\/p>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Durability:<\/strong> Most dental flippers are made using cheaper materials that are less durable when compared to other types of dentures. This means they are more prone to cracking and breaking.<\/li>    <li><strong>Initial discomfort: <\/strong>Flipper teeth may initially feel uncomfortable in your mouth. This can also make activities like eating and talking feel slightly unnatural. If your flipper causes you pain, see your dentist.<\/li>    <li><strong>Potential allergy:<\/strong> Some people experience an <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"allergic to the material (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4745248\/\" target=\"_blank\">allergic reaction<\/a> from the material used to make flipper teeth. Discuss your allergy history with the dentist prior to getting one. <\/li>    <li><strong>Maintenance<\/strong>: Using flipper teeth can be harmful to your dental health because they increase the risk of tooth decay and gingivitis, especially if you do not clean them well. <\/li>    <li><strong>Risk of gum recession<\/strong>: A flipper tooth covers your gums entirely, hindering the flow of saliva to that particular area. Because saliva helps keep the gums clean and prevents recession, using a flipper tooth can actually increase this risk. <\/li>    <li><strong>Risk of Loosening<\/strong>: A flipper tooth is made and molded in such a way that it grips your existing teeth perfectly. However, using it over a long period of time can cause the tooth to loosen.

However, you should follow your dentist&#8217;s specific instructions for your case. <\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can you eat with a dental flipper?<\/h3>    <p>A flipper is designed primarily for aesthetics, but most patients learn to eat with their flippers in place. You should begin by chewing relatively soft food that is cut into small pieces. <\/p>    <p>Take small bites, and chew on both sides of your mouth at the same time. Hard or chewy foods (raw vegetables, french bread, etc.) should be avoided until after your period of adjustment.<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is a flipper the same as a partial denture?<\/h3>    <p>Yes. Dental&nbsp;flippers&nbsp;are a type of partial denture used to act as a temporary filler for a gap in the tooth line. They are normally used to replace one missing tooth. Partial dentures, in general, can be used to replace one or multiple teeth. <\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long can you wear a dental flipper?<\/h3>    <p>Dental flippers are meant for temporary wear, usually just as long as it takes for your gums to heal before your implants. You may be able to wear them for longer, but only if your dentist gives the OK.<\/p>    <p>Flippers may also be worn by minors until they are old enough for implants, but regular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/dentures-false-teeth\/denture-care\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">denture care<\/a> is required to keep them clean and prevent breakage. <\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s the best way to clean dental flippers?<\/h3>    <p>When you take your flippers out at night, scrub them with water or toothpaste and then soak them overnight in an antifungal, antibacterial solution. You can purchase dissolvable cleaning tablets. <\/p> <div class=\"socials_share\"><ul class=\"share-buttons\">     <li class=\"share_item share_item-facebook\">         <a class=\"share_link
