Dentures

What are dentures?

If you are missing several teeth or a complete arch of teeth, carefully crafted dentures can replace the function and appearance of your natural teeth. Our denture technicians handcraft dentures based upon the dentist’s prescription, following a thorough assessment and analysis of your mouth. Our natural-looking complete dentures are comfortable and designed to fit perfectly. If you only have a few missing teeth then a partial denture can be made to fill the gap.

Benefits of dentures:

  • Dentures give you a full, natural-looking smile.
  • Dentures are durable and long-lasting.
  • They enable you to eat more foods and speak comfortably.
  • They can easily be removed.
  • They give support to any remaining teeth.
  • They are an affordable solution.
  • They can be secured with dental implants.

Dentures are custom made for each individual patient. They can be partial (if you still have some of your own teeth) or full (if you have no remaining teeth).

What are dentures made of?

Dentures are made out of acrylic or metal (chrome based).

Different materials are more suitable than others in certain circumstances. We can advise you on what options are available.

When teeth are missing and gaps cannot be filled with something fixed, such as bridges, a denture may be a solution.

For patients that want rock-solid dentures that don’t slip, we recommend implant-retained dentures. The placement of two to four dental implants in the upper or lower jaw can secure a denture firmly in place

What are the advantages of implant-retained dentures?

Most denture wearers will agree that the main disadvantage of regular dentures is that they often shift position. This causes discomfort as well as affecting speech and limits the types of food you can eat.

  • They feel more like your natural teeth.
  • As they are more secure, you will be able to eat even crunchy foods such as apples or raw carrots.
  • Up to 100% of your mouth’s chewing capability can be restored.
  • They are more comfortable to wear.
  • There is no need for any dental adhesives.
  • Your gums won’t become sensitive because of denture movement.
  • Dental implants can prevent further bone density loss.
ARPAD

Bespoke Dentures with Our In-House Clinical Dental Technician

We are very fortunate to have our own Clinical Dental Technician, Arpad Keresi, in-house at the practice. With over 20 years of experience in denture design and manufacture, Arpad specialises in creating bespoke, high-quality acrylic and chrome dentures, combining his technical expertise with a personalised clinical approach.

You can book a complimentary denture consultation with Arpad, where he will carry out a thorough assessment, listen to your concerns and discuss the most suitable denture options for you. He will explain the different types of dentures available, answer your questions and provide a personalised treatment plan and quotation.

Complete Dentures

If you have lost all of your teeth and require a full, complete denture, Arpad can manage the entire process from consultation and design through to the manufacture of your bespoke denture.

As both the clinician, designer and manufacturer, Arpad is able to oversee every stage of the process. This allows for exceptional attention to detail and, where necessary, adjustments can be made directly by the person who designed and made your denture. This can help streamline the process while ensuring your denture is carefully tailored to your individual needs, facial features and bite.

Partial Dentures

If you still have some natural teeth and are considering a partial denture, we will first make sure your remaining teeth and gums are healthy enough to support the denture. A dental examination may be required to assess the health and stability of your existing teeth.

Once you have been assessed as dentally fit, you can meet with Arpad to discuss your options. He will explain the differences between premium and platinum dentures, including the materials, design and manufacturing process, helping you choose the option that best suits your needs, lifestyle and budget.

What is the process for getting dentures made?

Every denture is custom made to accurately fit each patient. We work in conjunction with a skilled dental technician to produce a result that feels comfortable and looks good. Making a denture usually takes five or six visits to our practice.

Step 1 – Have impressions taken to have customised trays made that only fit you.

Step 2 – Use these customised trays to take accurate impressions of your mouth and register your bite.

Step 3 – Try in your denture and see if you are happy with the look.

Step 4 – Get your final denture back and smile.

Step 5 – Review appointment to see if any adjustments are needed.

Step 6 – Eat and smile freely.

For patients that want rock-solid dentures that don’t slip, we recommend implant-retained dentures. The placement of two to four dental implants in the upper or lower jaw can secure a denture firmly in place.

If you want a denture or need to replace your existing loose one, or even considering an implant retained denture then book in for a new patient examination to help guide you further.
