DENTURES

Should you have unfortunately lost a number of teeth, dentures (sometimes referred to as a ‘plate’) are a good option for restoring your smile and your bite/chewing.

There are two broad types of dentures metal/chrome and acrylic/plastic. Each type of denture has its ideal use cases

Chrome Dentures are stronger and usually less bulky and therefore often more comfortable for those needing a partial denture.

Acrylic Dentures tend to be best for patients who need full dentures as they can be made to fit tightly to the form of the mouth and gain a retentive suction to the soft tissues of the mouth.

We construct your dentures over a number of visits to get the best fit possible, we are committed to getting you dentures that feel comfortable and help you with chewing and speaking.

Partial dentures can also be useful for patients that are temporarily missing a tooth before implant placement. In this case they can be used to replace the aesthetic or functional properties of your lost natural tooth during the time period that your implant is being placed/healing.

Both have their pros and cons which are very much associated with each individual’s mouth and preferences if you wish to know more please contact us and make an appointment so we can look at your mouth and suggest the best way to address any teeth you may have lost.
