Dentures have been used for centuries and they have come a long way from the artificial looking, bulky sets of teeth often featured nestling in glasses of water by the bed in films. Modern dentures are functional, comfortable and natural looking and they really can make a massive difference to your quality of life, as well as your confidence.

About dentures

Dentures are a popular treatment for missing teeth; they are sets of false teeth, which are designed to replace teeth that have been lost as a result of decay, gum disease, injury or ageing. There are two main types of denture: partial dentures, which are designed to replace a small number of missing teeth and full or complete dentures, which replace an entire arch of missing teeth.

Dentures are held in place by the natural suction of the gums, but some people choose to use denture adhesive for added support.

Dentures help to restore the function of the mouth and enable people to eat and chew food and speak properly; dentures also provide support for the cheeks, which prevents the cheeks from looking sunken.
