If you do not have any of your natural teeth left then you will benefit from having dentures as they provide structure to your smile and prevent surrounding facial muscles from sagging. In addition to bridges and dental implants, partial dentures can be used to replace missing teeth.
Conventional dentures are fabricated based on a metal frame and are rigid, they contain visible metal clasps to anchor to your existing teeth and can be uncomfortable to wear.
A different approach
At Inglewood House Dental Practice we like to offer our patients something different. Valplast® flexible dentures, based on a flexible material, they are easier to wear, comfortable, adapt to slight changes in the shape of your mouth (e.g. when eating) and are cosmetically indistinguishable from your natural teeth. Nobody will even know you are wearing dentures.

​
The ultimate solution for denture wearers, is to have your denture permanently secured using dental implants.
