Dentures

By replacing missing teeth, you can restore the health of your bite and feel more confident about your smile.

What are dentures?

In short, dentures are removable prostheses designed to replace missing teeth’s appearance and function. A full denture or partial denture will replace missing teeth, depending on the number of missing teeth.

Getting dentures begins with talking to us about your options. You will have time to make sense of your bespoke treatment plan once we have explained everything about the treatment and design to you.

What are the benefits of full and partial dentures?

The primary benefit of dentures is that they fill in the gaps left by missing teeth, but that’s not the only advantage.

An aesthetic advantage of dentures is the ability to fill the appearance of sunken cheeks when teeth have been lost. Moreover, dentures are beneficial to the oral health, as they distribute the biting forces, which contributes to the long-term stability of remaining natural teeth.

Looking After Your Dentures

We will walk you through how to properly care for your new dentures when you get them fitted. Below are some vital points:

• Dentures should always be removed at night and placed in cold water. This will help ensure the health of your gums and soft tissues.
• Dentures should be cleaned daily. To prevent breakage, use a soft brush and non-abrasive denture paste over a sink of water.
• Be sure to maintain good oral hygiene. Using your regular toothbrush and toothpaste, brush any remaining teeth, gums, and tongue.

Please schedule an appointment with us if you are experiencing any discomfort with your dentures. A more comfortable fit can be achieved by adjusting dentures.
