Dentures are removable false teeth which can be constructed from plastic or metal. Complete dentures replace all your upper or lower teeth, partial dentures replace either single or multiple missing teeth.
Dentures can help improve aesthetics, speech and therefore confidence. Some treatments can involve the use of temporary dentures (e.g. dental implants) to maintain your smile whilst the treatment takes place.
Complete dentures
A full denture replaces all your missing upper and lower teeth as well as providing an important gum substitute to help hold your lips and facial muscles in a natural way.
Partial dentures
This is designed to replace one or more missing teeth and typically clasp onto your remaining teeth to help stability.
To help retention some patients benefit from dentures held in on implants. These create a solid platform for your dentures and help improve denture retention as well as your confidence.
