What are the different types of dentures?

Options include complete (full) dentures for all missing teeth, partial dentures when some natural teeth remain, immediate dentures placed after extractions, and implant‑supported overdentures for stability.

What is a partial denture?

A removable partial denture clips onto remaining healthy teeth to replace missing ones. It restores function and appearance and can be easily removed for cleaning.

What are implant-supported overdentures?

Overdentures are removable prosthesis secured by dental implants or retained roots—offering increased stability, bone preservation and chewing comfort.

How long do dentures last?

With proper care, full or partial dentures last about 5–10 years. Implant‑supported overdentures may last longer and require fewer adjustments.

I wasn’t sure which type of denture would be best for me, but the dentist took the time to explain all the options. I decided on a partial denture, and it fits perfectly. It’s so comfortable, and I can eat and smile with confidence again. I’m really happy with the results!

I was nervous about getting dentures, but the dentist made it all so simple. I went with a partial denture, and it’s been a game changer. It fits well, feels natural, and I can eat and talk with no issues. I’m really glad I made the choice.

I was a bit overwhelmed by all the denture options, but the dentist guided me through each one. I chose full dentures, and I’m so pleased with how they fit and feel. I can finally smile without worrying, and they’ve made such a difference to my confidence.

We contacted the dentist after being unable to find another dentist to take on the wife. After a quick call, she was given an appointment for the next day, and she visited. After a chat, she was given a plan for her treatment, and this was done with no problems at all and was carried out to a very high standard. She is now a proud owner of a new set of teeth, and we will definitely continue to use them in the future.
