Dentures in West Bridgford

Dentures at Hilton Dental Clinic

Replacing lost or missing teeth has great benefits not only for your appearance, but your dental health as well. Without the support of your teeth, facial muscles can sag and sink inwards, which can make people appear older, and cause issues with eating, drinking, and speaking properly. A denture is made from hard-wearing material that mimics the look of teeth and gums to give your smile a natural appearance; a great solution for people who have a half or full mouth of teeth to replace, with lifestyle-improving benefits.

The benefits of dentures

  • Supports the structure of your face
  • Allows you to eat and speak normally
  • Boosts your confidence with a complete smile
  • Strong and durable, lasting for up to 10 years

Dentures treatment process

We’ll have an initial consultation with you to discuss your smile goals, and create a unique treatment plan to start your journey to a complete, comfortable smile.

The treatment process:

  1. ‍We start by taking impressions of your mouth, which get sent off to the dental laboratory so your dentures can be crafted to match your appearance.
  2. Your dentures are designed to fit snugly on your gums, and created to be removable for easy cleaning and maintenance.
  3. Once your dentures are ready, you’ll come back in for them to be fitted. This is where we make sure your dentures fit snugly, securely, and comfortably, and discuss how you should take care of your dentures. 

What is a denture?

A dental denture is an appliance which is worn to replace lost or missing teeth to enable you to enjoy a healthy diet and smile with confidence.

A complete or full denture is one that replaces all of the natural teeth in either the upper or lower jaws.

A partial denture fills in the spaces created by lost or missing teeth and is attached to your natural teeth with metal clasps or devices called precision attachments.

The base of a denture is called a plate and can be made of either acrylic (plastic) or metal.

The teeth are normally made of acrylic and can be made to match your natural teeth. This is especially important in the case of partial dentures. 

Life benefits

  • A solution to replacing several missing teeth.
  • Designed to give you a natural-looking smile. 

Denture FAQs

What are the different types of dentures?

There are two main types of dentures: full dentures, which replace all teeth in an upper or lower arch, and partial dentures, which fill gaps when some natural teeth remain. Both are custom-made to fit your mouth and appearance.

How long do dentures last?

With proper care, dentures can last between 5 to 10 years. Over time, they may need adjustments or replacement as your mouth naturally changes.

Will dentures affect how I eat or speak?

While it may take a short time to adjust, dentures are designed to help you chew comfortably and speak clearly. Our team will ensure they fit securely for everyday confidence and comfort.
