I have missing teeth and want to replace them. Are partial dentures or implants better?

The right tooth replacement option depends on your unique situation, but generally dental implants are longer-lasting, tend to fit better, and look more similar to natural teeth.
If you can afford it and your jaw bone is in proper condition for implants then it would be your best choice, otherwise partial would work as well as long as you have something to chew on rather than your gum. Before implant era, we all offered partial denture or bridge to patients with missing teeth
You can't choose what is better or worse .These are just different
options.It depends on many different circumstances such as conditions of
the mouth , gag reflex , affordability etc. This is not a market to buy
fruits, it is an art of dentistry.
