Types of Dentures

Complete Dentures

Complete dentures are used to replace all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw, or both. They are custom-made to fit the individual's mouth and can be made of acrylic or Flexible acrylic or chrome cobalt.

Complete dentures can either be conventional or immediate. Conventional dentures are made after the teeth have been removed and the gum tissue has healed. Immediate dentures are made in advance and can be placed immediately after the teeth are removed.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are used to replace one or more missing teeth. They can be made of acrylic or metal and are attached to the remaining natural teeth with metal clasps.

Partial dentures can help prevent the remaining natural teeth from shifting or moving.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-supported dentures are held in place by dental implants. Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone and provide a stable foundation for the dentures.

This type of denture is typically more stable than traditional dentures and can provide better function.

The Process of Getting Dentures

Consultation

The first step in getting dentures is to consult with a dentist. The dentist will examine your mouth and determine the best type of denture for your needs.

Impressions

After the consultation, the dentist will take impressions of your mouth. This involves making a mould of your mouth using a special dental putty.

Fitting

Once the mold is made, the dentures are created to fit your mouth. The dentist will adjust the fit as necessary to ensure comfort and proper function.

Placement

After the dentures are made, they are placed in the mouth. The fit will be checked and the denture will be adjusted if needed. The dentist will provide instructions on how to care for the dentures and adjust to wearing them.

Tips for Maintaining Dentures:

Clean the Dentures Daily
Dentures should be cleaned daily to remove food particles and prevent stains. Use a soft-bristled brush and a non-abrasive denture cleaner.

Soak the Dentures
Dentures should be soaked in water or a denture cleaner when they are not being worn to prevent them from drying out and warping.

Avoid Hot Water
Dentures should not be placed in hot water as this can cause them to warp.

Handle with Care
Dentures should be handled with care to avoid damage. They should be held over a soft surface when being cleaned or removed.

Regular Dental Check-Ups
Regular dental check-ups are important for ensuring the dentures are functioning properly and to check for any changes in the mouth or gums.

I was so terrified of the dentist I hadn't been for a number of years but from the initial phone... call to the care and treatment I have had, has been amazing.

Johan has been my Dentist for 10 years, he's an excellent Dentist who takes great pride in his... work. I've just completed having a dental implant with Johan, I knew he would do a great job, but being an anxious patient I had conscious sedation with Dental Sedation Solutions who the surgery have teamed up with. The procedure was brilliant, it was anxiety and stress free. I would highly recommend this surgery for a First Class Dental Experience from the minute you walk through the door.Kristineread more

I have a tremendous amount of trust and confidence in Johan and his team at Ramsbottom Dental Care.... About two years ago a front tooth broke and I have had an implant fitted. It was a masterclass in dental engineering. A 3 dimensional scan is made of the jaw and information transferred to a CAD (Computer Aided design) system. The implant is fitted using a guidance jig and the end result is a perfect match in size, alignment and tooth shade.Johan is very professional and pays a lot of attention to detail. I would not hesitate to recommend him and his team.R C Barkerread more

They took the time to explain each step of the examination process and Sophie took the time to go over all of my treatments options in great detail which really helped me to decide the best option for me.What also stood out was the modern and well-equipped facility. The use of advanced technology not only made the procedures more efficient but also instilled confidence in the quality of care provided.Overall, my visit to Ramsbottom Dental Care was really positive.

This practice is by far the very best I have been to - ever! ALL the staff are amazing, from the... warmest of welcomes on reception, to the most fantastic and 'state of the art' dental treatment by an experienced, professional and extremely caring dental team. The premises are inviting, relaxing, and absolutely spotless. I've instantly gone from a terrified patient to feeling reassured and happy with my treatment plan - in a very short period of time. I just wish we had found them sooner, and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them (in fact I do so at every opportunity!) Never before has a dentist extracted my teeth without sedation, but Dr Johan did so with the very minimum of discomfort. I have now regained my smile, and could not be happier - thank you!read more
