  1. Which Type of Dentures Do I Need?

  2. Full Dentures (Complete Dentures) What They Are Full dentures replace an entire arch of teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. These removable prosthetics rest directly on the gums and either the palate (upper) or jaw ridge (lower), creating suction for stability. Key Features • Replace all teeth in one or both arches • Removable for nightly cleaning • May require adhesive for additional stability • Cost: £1,200-£2,500 • Lifespan: 5-10 years with proper care

  3. Partial Dentures Design & Function Material Options Partial dentures replace several missing teeth whilst anchoring to your remaining natural teeth using metal clasps or precision attachments. This design prevents natural teeth from shifting and maintains proper spacing. Available in acrylic (plastic), metal (cobalt-chrome), or flexible nylon materials. Metal frameworks offer superior strength and a less bulky feel, while flexible options provide comfort for sensitive gums. Cost & Considerations Price ranges from £1,000-£2,500 depending on material and complexity. Ideal for patients with some healthy natural teeth remaining who want a removable, cost-effective solution.

  4. Implant-Retained Dentures (Snap-In Dentures) Implant Placement Strategic placement of 2-6 titanium implants in the jawbone provides anchor points for denture attachment. These implants fuse with bone over 3-6 months. Attachment Mechanism Special attachments or "locators" are embedded in the denture base, corresponding to implants. These allow the denture to snap firmly into place. Secure Function Once snapped in, dentures remain stable during eating and speaking, yet can be removed for cleaning. No adhesives required.

  5. Implant-Supported Dentures (Permanent Dentures) The Gold Standard Solution Implant-supported dentures represent the most advanced denture technology available. Unlike removable options, these dentures are permanently fixed to 4-8 dental implants per arch, creating a restoration that functions virtually like natural teeth. • Non-removable (only by dentist) • Prevents bone loss in jaw • Superior chewing efficiency • Most natural look and feel • Cost: £4,000-£7,000+ per arch

  6. Newest Denture Technologies 3D-Printed Dentures Flexible Dentures Zirconia Dentures Suction Dentures Digital scanning and 3D printing technology create precisely fitted dentures in fewer appointments. These custom-fit prosthetics offer improved comfort with reduced production time. Made from nylon or thermoplastic materials, flexible dentures are lightweight, virtually unbreakable, and ideal for patients with sensitive gums or allergies to acrylic materials. Combining exceptional strength with aesthetic translucency, zirconia dentures resist stains and bacteria. Their biocompatible nature and durability make them an excellent premium option. Using advanced manufacturing techniques, these dentures create a vacuum seal against the gums without implants or adhesives, offering improved stability for conventional denture wearers.

  7. Summary: Choosing Your Denture Type 2 1 3 Full Dentures Partial Dentures Implant Solutions Best for: Complete tooth loss in one or both arches Best for: Multiple missing teeth with healthy natural teeth remaining Best for: Those seeking maximum stability and function Advantages: Affordable, non-surgical, fully removable Advantages: Preserves natural teeth, removable, cost-effective Advantages: Prevents bone loss, superior chewing ability, most natural feel Considerations: Least stable option, may affect taste, requires adhesives Considerations: Visible clasps, pressure on natural teeth, adaptation period Considerations: Higher cost, surgical procedure, longer treatment timeline The ideal denture solution depends on your specific oral health situation, budget, and personal preferences. Schedule a consultation with your dentist for a comprehensive assessment to determine which option best meets your needs. Remember that investing in quality dentures can significantly improve your quality of life, confidence, and overall health.
