What is a Denture?

A denture consists of two main parts:

The Denture Base: This is the part that sits on the gums, crafted to fit the contours of your mouth for comfort and stability. It plays a critical role in both function and aesthetics.

The Artificial Teeth: Attached to the denture base, these teeth mimic the appearance and function of natural teeth, allowing you to chew, speak, and smile confidently.

Dentures serve as a versatile and effective solution for replacing missing teeth. They come in various types, each designed to meet specific needs. Here’s how they can be utilised:

Complete Dentures: Used when all teeth in an arch (upper or lower) are missing. These dentures restore the full set of teeth, improving appearance and function.

Partial Dentures: Ideal for replacing several missing teeth while preserving the remaining natural teeth. They attach to existing teeth with clasps or precision attachments, providing a secure fit.

Implant-Supported Dentures: For enhanced stability, dentures can be anchored to dental implants. This reduces movement and improves comfort during eating, speaking, and social activities.

By choosing dentures, you invest in a practical solution that not only restores oral function but also enhances your overall quality of life.

How long do dentures last?

Dentures are a long lasting solution for missing teeth. With proper care and maintenance, dentures should last several years. Many dentures will last 10-15 years plus, we offer the ability to reline your denture if your mouth changes shape over time.

Are dentures safe?

Yes, dentures are considered a safe and effective treatment for tooth loss. When properly fitted and cared for, they can significantly improve quality of life by restoring the ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently.

How much do dentures cost?

The cost of dentures can vary depending on several factors, including the type of dentures, the materials used and the complexity of your needs. Here at Vitruvian Dental Studio, our dentures start from £650 for a permanent denture. We offer the ability to spread payments out over anything from 12 months (0% interest) to up to 5 years (9.9% APR)

Can dentures improve my facial appearance and speech?

Yes, dentures can significantly improve both facial appearance and speech. Complete dentures provide support to the facial muscles, helping to restore a more youthful appearance and preventing the sunken-in look that can occur with missing teeth. They also fill out the lips and cheeks, improving overall facial aesthetics. As for speech, dentures can help restore proper pronunciation and enunciation, especially if missing teeth have been causing speech difficulties.

Can dentures be stabilised with dental implants?

Yes, implants can significantly improve the stability and comfort of full dentures. They can be used to anchor the dentures securely, which helps reduce slipping and movement.

How do I care for my dentures?

Dentures should be cared for by brushing them daily and soaking them in a denture-cleaning solution. It’s also important to clean your gums, tongue, and any remaining teeth to maintain good oral hygiene. Regular dental check-ups are crucial to ensure the proper fit and condition of your dentures.
