If you’ve been in the hospital and come out only to discover your dentures are missing, you’re not alone. This is a common issue, especially for patients discharged from Walsall Manor Hospital. Whether it’s due to the busyness of a hospital stay or simply misplacement during treatment, losing dentures while hospitalized can be frustrating and inconvenient.
Without your dentures, eating and speaking can become difficult, affecting both your diet and confidence. At The Dentist, we understand the urgency and emotional toll this takes on you, which is why we offer a home visit service to help you get your replacement dentures as quickly and efficiently as possible.
How We Can Help
At The Dentist, we offer home visits to assist patients who have lost their dentures during a hospital stay. Here’s how we can help:
- We will come to your home, take impressions of your gums and jaw, and work quickly to get your new dentures made.
- We offer both full and partial dentures, depending on your needs.
- Our process is quick and effective, with many patients receiving their new dentures within two weeks.
Contact PALS for Assistance
If your dentures were lost while in Walsall Manor Hospital, it’s important to coordinate with the Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS). PALS will help you lodge a complaint or track down your lost dentures if they are still in the hospital.
However, if your dentures cannot be located, or if you simply want a replacement as quickly as possible, you can contact us at The Dentist. We can begin the process of getting you a new set of dentures right away.

- Contact PALS at Walsall Manor Hospital to report the loss of your dentures.
- Call us at 01922 624900 to schedule a home visit.

Our Denture Options
At The Dentist, we offer various types of dentures to suit your needs. Whether you require full or partial dentures, our experienced team will guide you through the best option for you:
- Full Dentures: If you have lost all of your upper or lower teeth, full dentures will provide a complete set of natural-looking teeth, allowing you to chew, speak, and smile with confidence.
- Partial Dentures: If only a few teeth are missing, partial dentures can be used to fill in the gaps. They are removable and designed to fit comfortably alongside your existing teeth.
How to Care for Your New Dentures
Once you have your new dentures, proper care is essential to ensure their longevity and your oral health. Follow these tips to keep your dentures in excellent condition:
- Clean them daily: Use a soft-bristle toothbrush and non-abrasive denture cleaner to remove food particles and plaque.
- Soak them overnight: Keep your dentures in a denture-soaking solution while you sleep to prevent them from drying out and losing their shape.
- Handle them with care: Dentures can break if dropped, so always handle them over a soft surface or towel when cleaning.
- Regular check-ups: Schedule regular dental check-ups to ensure your dentures continue to fit well and your oral health is maintained.
