Dentures

Partial acrylic dentures are a removable dental appliance used to replace one or more missing teeth. They’re made from a gum-coloured acrylic base that supports artificial teeth, and they sit comfortably in the mouth by resting on the natural gums and teeth. Often, small metal clasps help hold them in place.

Why choose Partial Acrylic Dentures?

Partial acrylic dentures are a great solution when you are missing a few teeth but still have some healthy ones remaining. They help restore your smile, improve chewing and speaking, and prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place over time.

Full acrylic dentures — also known as complete dentures — are removable dental appliances used to replace all the teeth in either the upper or lower jaw (or both). They are made entirely from high-quality acrylic, including a gum-coloured base that holds a full set of natural-looking artificial teeth.

Why choose Full Acrylic Dentures?

Full dentures are typically recommended when a patient has lost all their natural teeth due to decay, gum disease, or injury. They restore function (so you can eat and speak more comfortably) and appearance, helping to support the facial muscles and bring back a confident smile.

Cobalt chrome dentures are removable partial dentures built around a precisely made metal framework. Natural-looking replacement teeth and gum-coloured acrylic are added to the framework to restore the areas where teeth are missing.

The framework can use your remaining natural teeth for additional support and retention. This often allows the denture to feel more secure and stable while using considerably less material than a conventional acrylic denture.

Why choose Cobalt Chrome?

One of the biggest advantages of cobalt chrome is its strength-to-size ratio. Because the metal framework is extremely strong, it can be made much thinner than an acrylic denture without sacrificing stability. This can offer several benefits:

• Thin and lightweight – less bulky than many traditional acrylic dentures
• Strong and durable – the metal framework provides excellent strength
• Secure fit – carefully designed clasps and rests can help stabilise the denture
• More comfortable – the streamlined design can make the denture easier to tolerate
• Less coverage – depending on the individual design, less of the palate may need to be covered
• Natural appearance – replacement teeth are carefully selected to complement your existing smile
• Made specifically for you – every framework is individually designed around your remaining teeth and oral anatomy
