If you are missing some or all of your teeth, The Sandstone Dental Practice offers specialist expertise in fitting partial and full dentures in Merseyside and our team includes a specialist prosthodontist. Made from acrylic, nylon or metal, dentures fit snugly over your gums to replace missing teeth and counteract any problems missing teeth can cause – such as difficulty eating and speaking, unwanted movement of existing teeth, and facial sagging. Unlike crowns and bridges, dentures need to be removed daily for cleaning. In certain cases, dental implants can be used to anchor dentures permanently in place.
Depending on how many of your teeth are missing, you’ll need either a complete denture or a partial denture. We’ll talk you through your options and give you plenty of time to read through your treatment plan before you decide to go ahead with denture treatment.
This replaces all your upper and lower teeth, and fits over your gums and jawbone.
This replaces one or a couple of missing or decayed teeth. It’s made up of a plastic or metal plate with false teeth attached, and uses metal clasps to clip onto your nearby natural teeth.
Using a minimal number of dental implants (often four or six per arch), we can secure a full arch permanently in place, so you won’t ever experience problems with slippage, and your jawbone remains supported.
This offers our patients the best combination of control, flexibility and access to special member privileges.
