Treatments / Missing teeth / Dentures
Dentures.
A denture is made from hard-wearing material that mimics the look of teeth and gums to give your mouth a natural appearance.
Getting used to them
An adjustment period, then second nature.
Wearing dentures takes an adaptation period for speaking and eating, and proper hygiene prevents complications. The hygienist will show you how best to take care of your denture and gums, including the specialised brushes you can use.
