Dentures

Replacing lost or missing teeth benefits your health and appearance by providing support for your cheeks and lips. Without adequate support sagging facial muscles can make a person appear older and reduce the ability to speak, bite and chew.

Dentures can replace either few teeth (a partial denture) or a whole set of teeth (complete dentures).
Dentures can a improve a persons appearance and the quality of dentures are far better than ever before. Wearing dentures can enable you to enjoy a healthy diet and smile with confidence.
Without dentures the natural teeth may move or tilt, stopping your teeth biting together properly.

A partial denture is attached to your natural teeth, sometimes with clasps, the base of which is either acrylic or chrome. The teeth are made of acrylic and are made to match your natural teeth, which in the case of partial dentures is especially important.

Several appointments are necessary (usually between 5 – 6 appointments over a period of about 12 – 13 weeks) to make a new denture to ensure the most natural appearance and most comfortable fit are achieved.
