What are Dentures?

Dentures are removable prosthetic teeth that are designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding tissue.

They come in two types: full dentures and partial dentures.

Full dentures are used when all teeth are missing, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain.

How do Dentures Work?

Dentures work by fitting over the gums and remaining in place with suction or adhesive. They are custom-made to fit your mouth and can be easily removed for cleaning

Say Goodbye to Wobbly Dentures: Discover Implant Retained Dentures

Implant retained dentures may be the right choice for you if you’re struggling with traditional dentures, particularly on the bottom, and want a more secure and confident solution. These dentures are anchored to the jawbone using dental implants, offering better stability and function than traditional dentures. Additionally, implant retained dentures are more affordable than getting a full mouth of implants, making them a popular choice for those seeking a more cost-effective solution for missing teeth. To learn more about implant retained dentures and their benefits, schedule a consultation with a Private dentist in Dumfries today.
