What are the denture options offered at our office?
Dentures are removable restorations for missing teeth and surrounding structures. Dentures are created from natural-looking prosthetic teeth mounted on a gum-coloured acrylic or metal base. Dentures can be either complete or partial.
- Complete dentures: When you have lost teeth in an entire arch, the dentist will recommend complete dentures to restore your function and aesthetics. The denture restoration rests comfortably on the gums and is secured in place with adhesives or natural suction.
- Partial dentures: Partial dentures are like full dentures, except they replace a few missing teeth and use the neighboring teeth as anchors. A partial is fastened to the surrounding teeth with a detachable metal framework. Our custom-fitted denture snugly fits in the edentulous space to complete your smile.
What makes our dentures superior?
High-quality dentures are created to look natural, fit comfortably, and stabilize your jawbone and facial features. Thanks to premium materials and artistic prowess, our dentures offer precisely that.
Your denture creation is a highly personalized process in our office. Your treatment starts with a consultation to understand your goals and expectations. If dentures are suitable for your oral health needs, we’ll digitally scan your teeth to ensure your dentures match the exact shape, color, and size of your teeth. When designing your restoration, we also consider your gum color, lips, and facial features.
When patients visit us, they receive custom-fitted dentures that look natural and fit comfortably. The dentures also last many years despite everyday tooth use.
How are dentures maintained?
Even the best restorations require regular care. Your dentures need routine maintenance to ensure they remain in optimal condition. Like natural teeth, dentures must be cleaned at least twice daily to remove food particles, plaque, and bacteria. This helps prevent stains, bad breath, and potential oral health issues.
Don’t sleep with your dentures to avoid gum irritation and infections. Instead, soak your restorations in a denture-cleaning solution or water overnight to keep them moist, retain their shape, and prevent them from drying out and becoming brittle.
Visit your dentist every six months to ensure your dentures fit properly and function as they should. We’ll check your dentures’ fit and make any necessary adjustments to ensure your restorations offer a stable fit.

Can you get dentures without going to the dentist in the UK?
It is possible to order dentures online or through direct denture providers in the UK, but it is not recommended. Dentures require a precise fit for comfort and functionality, which can only be achieved through professional dental care. A dentist takes detailed impressions and measurements of your mouth to ensure the dentures fit well and support your oral health. Ill-fitting dentures from non-dental sources can lead to discomfort, difficulty eating, and long-term damage to your gums and jaw.
Can you eat with dentures?
Yes, you can eat with dentures, although adjusting may take some time. Initially, you might prefer soft foods while learning to chew with dentures. Over time, you can return to a varied diet, although sticky or hard foods should be approached with care. Properly fitted dentures help distribute biting forces evenly, making eating more comfortable. Regular check-ups ensure your dentures maintain a good fit for optimal performance.
How long does it take to make dentures in the UK?
The time it takes to make dentures in the UK varies depending on the type of denture and the complexity of your case. On average, it takes 4–6 weeks and requires multiple appointments for impressions, fittings, and adjustments. Immediate dentures, fitted right after teeth extraction, can be prepared quickly but may require further adjustments as your gums heal. Your dentist will provide a timeline tailored to your needs.
Can I have all my teeth removed and get a denture?
Yes, you can have all your teeth removed and replaced with full dentures. This is often necessary for individuals with extensive tooth decay or severe gum disease. Your dentist will carefully plan the extractions and denture fitting to ensure a smooth transition. Immediate dentures can be provided on the same day as the extractions, but adjustments or a new set of dentures may be needed after your gums heal fully.
How long do dentures last?
Dentures typically last 5–10 years, depending on the material, quality, and care they receive. Over time, natural changes in your jaw and gums can affect their fit, necessitating relining or replacement. Regular dental visits allow your dentist to assess your dentures’ condition and ensure they remain functional and comfortable for as long as possible.
Can you wear dentures permanently?
Yes, dentures are designed for everyday wear, but they should be removed at night to give your gums and oral tissues time to rest. Prolonged wear without breaks can lead to irritation or infections—proper cleaning and storage of dentures when not in use help maintain their longevity and oral health.
Do dentures fall out easily?
Well-fitted dentures should not fall out easily. Modern denture design ensures a secure fit and adhesive products can provide extra stability if needed. However, loose or ill-fitting dentures may slip during speaking or eating, so regular dental check-ups are essential to maintain a proper fit. If your dentures frequently fall out, consult your dentist for adjustments.
