Dentures

Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They help restore function (like chewing and speaking) and improve appearance. Here’s a concise overview:

Types of Dentures

Complete (Full) Dentures

Replace all teeth in the upper and/or lower jaw.

Partial Dentures

Replace some missing teeth.

Attach to remaining natural teeth with clasps or precision attachments.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Snap onto dental implants embedded in the jawbone.

More stable than traditional dentures.

Can be removable or fixed.

Process Overview

Dentures are created in multiple appointment stages, usually 2 weeks apart. In some cases a digital scan can be used instead of impressions, subject to suitability.

Examination & Impressions

Tooth Extraction (if needed)

Fitting Appointments (for models, bite, and try-ins)

Final Denture Placement

Adjustments & Follow-Up

Care and Maintenance

• Clean daily with a soft brush and denture cleanser.
• Soak overnight in denture solution or water.
• Rinse after meals.
• Visit the dentist regularly for fit checks and oral health.
