Can partial dentures be replaced by implants/bridges later?

I currently am under medi-cal state health insurance. They only cover tooth extractions and partial dentures to fill in the missing tooth. My question is am i stuck with the partial dentures forever, or when i strike it rich can i go get implants?

You can start with the partial denture and replace the missing teeth in the future with implants or bridges.
The only problem I might forsee with the implants in the future is maybe some bone loss which may not allow the implant room to fuse.
A bridge will always be an option granted you have enough teeth left to work with.
I would ask the dentist his professional opinion in regards to this matter.
