Replacing teeth

Dentures in Currie

Removable replacements for one, several or all of your teeth, made to fit your mouth.

What it is

Dentures are artificial teeth attached to a plate. A partial denture replaces one or more teeth; a full denture replaces a whole arch.

They can be made of acrylic, metal or flexible acrylic. Your dentist will explain which suits you.

If you struggle with a loose full denture, implants can sometimes help hold it securely in place.

Who it's for

Anyone who has lost teeth through decay, gum disease, fracture or an accident, and wants a removable option.

What to expect

  1. Your dentist examines your mouth and talks through the options.
  2. Impressions are taken, and your denture is made over a few appointments, with a fitting stage so you can check the look and feel.
  3. We'll adjust it as you get used to it.
