Dentures are removable ‘false’ teeth which are used to replace missing teeth. They are most commonly made of acrylic plastic or metal, and are custom-made to fit the gums of the individual patient.
Missing teeth are known to create problems with eating and/or speech, and so partial dentures (a single or small number of missing teeth) or complete dentures (an entire set) are practical and effective solutions for patients experiencing such difficulties.
A patient with dentures must see their dentist frequently in order to make sure the dental appliance maintains its effectiveness and function over time. At Epsom Dental Centre, we will create a treatment and aftercare plan that is based on the long-term success of your dentures.
If you feel that dentures may be right for you, we encourage you to book an appointment with us.
