Removable yet cosmetic

Dentures

A denture is a removable appliance that replaces missing teeth.  Most people think of dentures as unsightly and view them with dread.  However, with modern technology and advanced techniques dentures can be highly aesthetic and take years of your appearance.

Typically full dentures will be made from acrylic and partial dentures from acrylic and a metal alloy framework.  Modern techniques mean that we can now make highly cosmetic dentures from a nylon based material which is flexible and virtually unbreakable.

Unsightly dentures are now mostl definately a thing of the past.

In complex cases, dentures can be retained by dental implants. This means that dentures will be held in securely to avoid the embarrassment of dropping dentures or the use of adhesives.

The Procedure

  • Missing teeth can be replaced using removable dentures.
  • This can be converted into an implant retained denture so that it is secure and stable.
  • A fixed bridge on implants can also be made which is then not removable and more like natural teeth.

New techniques mean that we can place dental implants and secure the dentures on the same day, called ‘teeth in a day’. If you have had loose removable dentures for many years, and are fed up with using adhesive every day, this could be the option for you.
