The denture treatment procedure involves several carefully planned steps to ensure your new dentures fit perfectly and function naturally. Our experienced dental team at London Dental Specialists will guide you through each stage of the process.
During your treatment, we begin with taking detailed impressions of your mouth using specialised dental materials. These impressions create precise models of your oral structure, which are essential for crafting dentures that fit comfortably and securely.
The next phase involves measuring your bite relationship. This crucial step determines how your upper and lower jaws align, ensuring your new dentures will allow for proper chewing and speaking. We use advanced techniques to record the exact positioning needed for optimal function.
For partial dentures, we take additional care to ensure they blend seamlessly with your existing teeth. The framework is precisely designed to clip onto your natural teeth while maintaining the health of your remaining dentition.
Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments. These appointments are essential for ensuring long-term comfort and proper function of your new dentures.
| Treatment Stage | Duration |
|---|---|
| Initial Impressions | 30-45 minutes |
| Bite Registration | 30-45 minutes |
| Wax Try-in | 45-60 minutes |
| Final Fitting | 60 minutes |
Post-treatment care for your dentures is essential for maintaining their longevity and your oral health. Proper maintenance ensures your dentures remain comfortable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing for years to come.
Daily cleaning of your dentures is crucial to prevent staining and maintain oral hygiene. Remove and rinse your dentures after eating to wash away food particles and debris. Use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for dentures, along with mild soap or a special denture cleanser – avoid using regular toothpaste as it can be too abrasive.
Handle your dentures with care when cleaning them. Clean them over a folded towel or basin of water to prevent damage if they're dropped. Brush all surfaces gently to avoid damaging the plastic or attachments.
Regular dental check-ups are important for ensuring your dentures continue to fit properly. Contact London Dental Specialists immediately if you experience any discomfort, loose fitting, or damage to your dentures. We provide ongoing support and are here to help with any concerns about your dentures.
Remember that dentures may need periodic adjustments as your mouth naturally changes over time. We offer a 10-year warranty on our dental implants and endodontics, giving you peace of mind about your dental investment.

Dentures are custom-made removable replacements for missing teeth that come in several varieties to suit different needs. The main types include complete dentures (replacing all teeth), partial dentures (replacing some teeth), immediate dentures (fitted right after tooth extraction), and implant-supported dentures (anchored by dental implants).
The best denture option for you depends on factors like how many teeth you're missing, your oral health condition, and lifestyle preferences. Complete dentures are ideal if you've lost all teeth in your upper or lower jaw, while partial dentures work well when you still have some healthy natural teeth remaining.
| Denture Type | Best Suited For |
|---|---|
| Complete | Those missing all teeth in upper or lower jaw |
| Partial | Those with some healthy natural teeth remaining |
| Immediate | Patients requiring tooth extraction who don't want to go without teeth |
| Implant-Supported | Those seeking maximum stability and natural feel |
The first step to getting fitted for dentures is scheduling a comprehensive dental examination where your dentist will assess your oral health, remaining teeth, and gum condition. This initial consultation at London Dental Specialists typically takes about 60-90 minutes and includes X-rays and impressions of your mouth to create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
The complete denture fitting process usually takes between 3-6 weeks and requires several appointments. This timeline allows for proper healing after any necessary extractions and ensures your custom dentures fit perfectly. For immediate dentures, you can receive temporary teeth the same day as extractions while your permanent dentures are being crafted.
After receiving your dentures, we provide comprehensive care instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to ensure proper fit and comfort. Our 10-year warranty on dental implants provides peace of mind for implant-supported denture options.
