Dentures
Newton Abbot

When done well, dentures can make a drastic improvement to not only your eating enjoyment, but they can also make you look younger by reducing frown lines surrounding your lips and cheeks.

What are the benefits of Dentures?

At Newton Abbot Dental, we consider the replacement of teeth to be critical in ensuring a high quality of life. Dentures are often an effective way of replacing multiple missing teeth. We want to make sure that you have the most comfortable, stable and natural looking dentures; therefore we use our team of master dental technicians to custom make dentures using the highest quality materials.
Enhanced Appearance
Dentures provide a natural-looking smile by replacing missing teeth, improving facial aesthetics, and supporting the facial structure.
Cost-Effective
Compared to other tooth replacement options, such as dental implants, dentures are often more affordable.
Comfort
Modern dentures are custom-made to fit the unique contours of each individual's mouth.
Support
Partial dentures help prevent the remaining natural teeth from shifting out of position.

How Do I Look After My Dentures?

Dentures must be looked after as if they were your natural teeth. Plaque can develop on dentures in much the same way as it can on natural teeth, which can put you at risk of gum disease.

With removable dentures, we recommend you take them out and clean them thoroughly with a soft brush. They should then be rinsed and soaked overnight in a denture cleaner.

Remember to keep your mouth clean too, by gently brushing your gums and tongue with a soft brush and rising with a mouthwash.

Common questions about Dentures

Patients may wonder if they are suitable candidates for dentures. Dentures are often recommended for individuals who have lost multiple teeth due to factors such as tooth decay, gum disease, trauma, or age-related tooth loss. Candidates for dentures should have sufficient jawbone structure to support the denture and maintain proper fit and function.

Treatments are tailored to suit your individual needs and the cost of Dentures will vary depending on a number of factors, such as number of teeth and other treatments which may be needed. View the full dental price guide here to see the cost of dental treatments.

Patients may inquire about wearing dentures while sleeping. While some individuals choose to wear their dentures overnight, it is generally recommended to remove them before bedtime to allow the gums and oral tissues to rest and prevent potential complications such as gum irritation, fungal infections, or denture-related stomatitis. Your dentist can provide personalised recommendations on wearing dentures based on your individual needs and preferences.

Patients often worry about how dentures will impact their daily activities. Initially, dentures may feel strange and affect eating and speaking, but with practice, most individuals adapt to them. Starting with soft foods and gradually reintroducing harder foods can help. Speaking may also require some practice to adjust to the new feel of dentures in the mouth.
