What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues.
Modern dentures are carefully crafted to restore the appearance of your smile, improve chewing ability and support clearer speech while helping maintain normal facial shape.
Every denture is individually made to suit the shape of your mouth, facial features and bite, providing the most comfortable and natural result possible.
Benefits of Dentures
Dentures may help to:
Replace missing teeth
Improve chewing ability
Improve speech
Restore facial support
Improve confidence
Support your lips and cheeks
Improve your smile
Enhance quality of life
Many patients find dentures allow them to enjoy meals, smile confidently and feel more comfortable in everyday life.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are recommended when some healthy natural teeth remain.
They replace one or more missing teeth while fitting securely around your existing teeth.
Partial dentures may help:
Restore your smile
Improve chewing
Prevent neighbouring teeth from drifting
Maintain facial support
Improve speech
They are individually designed to fit comfortably while preserving your remaining natural teeth.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures replace all teeth in either the upper or lower jaw.
They are carefully customised to restore appearance, improve function and provide comfortable everyday wear.
Our dentists work closely with every patient to achieve the best possible fit, comfort and natural appearance.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Some patients may benefit from dentures that are supported by dental implants.
Implant-supported dentures provide greater stability than traditional removable dentures and may improve comfort while eating and speaking.
During your consultation we will assess whether implant-supported dentures are suitable for your individual circumstances.
The Denture Process
Receiving new dentures usually involves several appointments.
Consultation
We examine your mouth, discuss your concerns and explain all suitable treatment options.
Impressions
Detailed impressions are taken to ensure your dentures fit accurately.
Bite Records
We record your bite and jaw position to improve comfort and function.
Try-In
A trial denture may be fitted so adjustments can be made before the final denture is completed.
Final Fitting
Your completed dentures are carefully adjusted for comfort, appearance and function.
Additional review appointments may be recommended to fine-tune the fit as your mouth adapts.
Caring for Your Dentures
Proper denture care helps maintain comfort, appearance and long-term function.
We recommend:
Cleaning your dentures every day
Removing dentures overnight unless advised otherwise
Storing dentures safely when not in use
Maintaining good oral hygiene
Cleaning your gums and tongue daily
Attending regular dental examinations
Bringing your dentures to every dental appointment
Well-maintained dentures are more comfortable and generally last longer.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dentures last?
Dentures generally provide many years of service with proper care.
Over time, changes in your gums and jawbone may mean adjustments, relining or replacement becomes necessary.
Regular dental examinations help ensure your dentures continue to fit comfortably.
Will dentures look natural?
Yes.
Modern dentures are carefully designed to match your facial features, smile and natural appearance.
Our aim is to provide dentures that look attractive while allowing you to smile with confidence.
Will dentures affect my speech?
Some patients notice minor speech changes while adjusting to new dentures.
Most people adapt quickly with regular use.
Reading aloud and practising difficult words often helps speed the adjustment process.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
Most patients gradually return to eating a wide variety of foods.
Initially, softer foods are usually recommended while your mouth adapts to the new dentures.
Our dentists will provide advice to help make this transition as comfortable as possible.
Are implant-supported dentures better?
For suitable patients, implant-supported dentures often provide greater stability and improved chewing ability.
However, every patient is different.
During your consultation we will discuss whether implant-supported dentures are appropriate for your individual needs.
