Which type of denture is best for you?

At Pallant Advanced Dentistry, we understand that this isn't just about teeth - it's about restoring comfort, confidence, and quality of life. Whether you need to replace one tooth or a full arch, we're here to help you find the most suitable, secure, and natural-looking solution for your smile.

Understanding your denture options

Not all dentures are created equal - and what's "best" depends entirely on your needs, lifestyle, and long-term goals. Below, we break down the three main types of dentures on offer:

1. Partial dentures

Partial dentures are ideal if you're missing only a few teeth. They fill gaps while preserving your remaining natural teeth and can be made from lightweight acrylic or a more durable cobalt-chrome metal. These offer a cost-effective, removable solution that restores function without requiring surgery.

2. Full dentures

If you've lost all your teeth in one or both arches, full dentures provide a complete smile replacement. Our full dentures are expertly designed to fit snugly, look natural, and allow you to chew and speak with ease. This option is often suitable for patients who want a non-surgical, removable restoration with long-term reliability.

3. Implant-supported dentures

For a more stable and confident solution, implant-supported dentures combine traditional dentures with dental implants placed in your jawbone. These clip securely into place and won't move or slip throughout the day. They're particularly suited to those looking for enhanced comfort, chewing efficiency, and peace of mind - especially when speaking or eating in social settings.

How to decide which denture is right for you

When choosing a denture, consider the following factors:

• Comfort and stability: Do you want a removable option, or would you prefer something that feels more like natural teeth?
• Budget and longevity: Implant-retained dentures are more secure but involve a higher upfront cost. Partial or full dentures may be more affordable but may require future adjustments.
• Bone health: If you've experienced jawbone shrinkage, implants may need additional support through bone grafting or alternative solutions.
• Lifestyle and expectations: Are you active and social? Do you want the most discreet, no-fuss solution?

Our team will take the time to assess your needs, explain all your options clearly, and provide a treatment plan that aligns with your goals and budget.
