Types of Dentures

Partial Dentures

Designed for cases where some teeth are missing but others remain, partial dentures can be made from plastic, metal, or a combination. Our skilled prosthetists ensure a secure fit, utilising little metal clasps that grip natural teeth. It is important for your remaining teeth to be in good health to support the partial denture.

Full Dentures

If you have several teeth requiring replacement, full dentures can be a suitable, cost-effective solution. When replacing all teeth, complete dentures sit securely on the gums, restoring a full and natural smile.

Immediate Dentures

Immediate dentures are ideal for those who prefer not to be without teeth during the healing period for full dentures. Immediate dentures are measured and prepared before the natural teeth are removed and are ready to use once your teeth are removed. Changes to the bone after the teeth are removed may cause the denture to become loose over time, and it may need to be adjusted or relined within a few months to improve the fit.

Implant Dentures

Experience enhanced stability with implant-retained dentures. Using special attachments that snap onto dental implants, these dentures offer better retention and can be applied to the top or bottom jaw, providing a noticeable difference in fit and function. As a complete dental and denture care clinic, we can manage the whole process, from inserting implants to making and fitting your dentures.

Denture Materials

Metal Dentures

Chrome Dentures, crafted from cast metal, stand out as the optimal choice for a permanent partial denture due to their exceptional strength and non-irritating properties. Their superiority over plastic partial dentures promotes healthier gums, distributing the pressure of your bite and chewing forces more evenly. Additionally, the design of chrome dentures allows for the possibility of an open palate, enhancing taste perception and sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures in certain cases.

Flexible Dentures

Flexible dentures are a kind of partial denture, but these ones are made of different materials than ordinary partial dentures. Most flexible dentures are made of a thin thermoplastic such as nylon, compared to the thicker, more rigid acrylic used in full dentures. This innovative approach ensures a more adaptable and comfortable dental solution.

Denture Maintenance

Relines

Maintain the longevity and functionality of your dentures with our expert maintenance services. Relines work by tightening the fitting surface, addressing issues of looseness or ill-fitting dentures.

Repairs

Experience efficient same-day repairs for your dentures at Shyne Dental & Denture Clinic. Understanding that dentures break for specific reasons, such as prolonged use or poor fit, our dedicated team investigates the cause to deliver optimal outcomes. Our repair process involves thorough disinfection, potential plaster modelling, grinding out broken parts, recuring with new acrylic, and meticulous trimming and polishing, ensuring the restoration of your dentures to the highest standards.

CARING FOR YOUR DENTURES AND YOUR MOUTH

Caring for your dentures and overall oral health is essential. Follow our advice to clean your dentures in the morning and before bedtime, and consider rinsing them in cold water after meals for optimal maintenance.

Trust Shyne Dental & Denture Clinic for expert denture services, where your comfort, functionality, and satisfaction are our top priorities. Our skilled team is dedicated to ensuring that your dentures not only restore your smile but also contribute to your overall well-being.
