Complete Denture
Standard | Premium
A Complete Denture is a removable prosthesis that replaces a complete arch of missing teeth. It may be constructed for functional and/or aesthetic reasons.
Partial Denture
Acrylic | Valplast | Chrome
A Removable Partial Denture consists of replacement of some teeth that are attached to a plastic/acrylic base, which is sometimes connected by metal framework that holds the denture in place in the mouth. Partial Dentures are used when one or more natural teeth remain in the upper or lower jaw.
Immediate Dentures
An Immediate Denture is a complete or partial denture inserted on the SAME DAY, immediately following the removal of natural teeth.

Dentures
Missing teeth can make your cheeks look hollow and your mouth look sunken. More importantly, your diet can suffer. Those missing multiple teeth in a row may want to consider dentures for both cosmetic purposes and overall wellness. Depending on the amount of teeth missing, we may suggest partial or full dentures. During your consultation, we’ll assess all your options and you can choose what you feel most comfortable with.
Complete Dentures
Partial Dentures
1. Acrylic Dentures.
These are by far the oldest and cheapest type of dentures available; they are made from rigid acrylic material and are a good choice for partial dentures (where only some teeth need to be replaced). They can take some getting used to and may have wires to support the dentures.
2. Valplast Dentures
Valplast dentures are flexible dentures suited only for partial replacements. They are designed to bend and absorb the forces in the mouth which makes them a lot easier to wear. Unlike acrylic dentures, they do not use metal wires for support and are also less bulky than acrylic dentures.
3. Metal Partial Dentures
These are the most costly of the dentures that are available, but the most durable.
They consist of a metal framework on which the teeth sit. You cannot see the metal framework when you smile and because this framework is thin, it is very comfortable to wear. Its design also makes these dentures very stable and retentive.
Immediate Dentures
If walking around with no teeth is not your ideal plan, then an immediate denture may be an option. This involves coming in for an appointment, having moulds taken and after 2-3 weeks, your dentures will be ready. Once the dentures have been made, you will have an appointment scheduled with the dentist and your teeth will be removed and your dentures will be inserted.
You will need to get the dentures relined after about 3 months as during this time your gums and bone would have shrunk as they have healed and the dentures will feel loose.
