Dentures for Missing Teeth
Dentures are removable replacements for lost or missing teeth. These prosthetics are skillfully designed to replicate the appearance and functionality of your natural teeth. Using modern techniques, our dentists take pride in crafting well-fitted, high-quality dentures that not only restore your smile but also enhance your ability to eat and speak comfortably.
Complete or Partial Dentures
Dentures come in two types: complete and partial. Complete dentures are used when all natural teeth are missing, offering a comprehensive solution to restore both oral function and aesthetics.
Partial dentures are used when you still have some of your natural teeth and may be considered as an alternative to a bridge or implant. Sometimes, dental implants are used in conjunction to provide the best possible outcome. This is known as a treatment called implant-retained dentures.
A denture can be further classed as either conventional or immediate. Conventional dentures are made after the teeth are missing, whereas immediate dentures are made before teeth are planned to be removed so you are not left with any gaps.
How are Complete and Partial Dentures Made?
Dentures can be made from a variety of materials depending on your needs. All are designed to feel as comfortable as possible, whilst simultaneously providing you with a natural-looking smile. At Staina House, we use Schottlander’s Engima Life Teeth, the highest-quality dentures available and winner of the Queen’s Award. Our dentists spend time making sure every denture meets the functional and aesthetic needs of each patient. In most cases, we make a trial prosthetic so that you can see and feel your denture before it is finished.
The technicians that we use have many years of experience and produce work of the highest quality.
Denture Repairs
Dentures may become damaged or broken for many reasons. Whether they have been dropped by accident or broken due to the natural changes in your mouth over time, it is always best to visit us for an examination. Our dentists will explore the cause of the problem and strive to prevent further breakage. If your denture is broken, do not attempt to repair it using products such as super glue as this can further weaken it. Contact us to make an appointment so we can arrange for a professional repair.
