1. Full Dentures
Losing all your natural teeth can feel overwhelming — but full dentures can restore your smile, confidence, and ability to enjoy everyday life again.
Full dentures are removable replacements for all teeth in the upper and/or lower jaw. They are custom-made to fit comfortably over your gums and are designed to look natural while restoring chewing ability and speech.
While the number of appointments may vary depending on your specific needs, our priority remains the same — delivering a denture that feels natural, secure, and comfortable.
Why Choose Western Crown & Bridge?
At Western Crown & Bridge, we focus on comfort, precision, and natural aesthetics. Our dentures are carefully crafted to minimise adjustments and provide long-lasting function. We work closely with dental professionals to ensure every case receives attention to detail and personalised care.
Your smile is personal — and we treat it that way.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get full dentures?
The timeline varies depending on healing and the type of denture. Conventional dentures typically take several weeks after healing. Immediate dentures are placed on the day of extraction.
Will dentures feel uncomfortable?
It is normal to experience minor soreness or adjustment during the first few weeks. As your mouth adapts, comfort improves. Adjustments may be required to ensure the best fit.
How long do dentures last?
With proper care, dentures can last 5–10 years. However, changes in your gums and bone structure over time may require relining or replacement.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
You may need time to adapt. Starting with softer foods and gradually returning to a regular diet helps. Implant-retained dentures offer greater stability for eating.
How do I care for my dentures?
Dentures should be cleaned daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive cleaner. They should be removed at night and stored in water or denture solution.
Will dentures look natural?
Yes. Modern dentures are custom-designed to match facial features, skin tone, and smile characteristics for a natural appearance.
2. Acrylic partial Dentures
Acrylic partial dentures are removable prosthetic appliances designed to replace one or more missing teeth and restore the gaps in your smile. They provide an affordable and practical solution while maintaining appearance and basic function.
The denture base, artificial teeth, and gum-coloured foundation are made from durable acrylic material. It is secured in place by clasps that gently attach to your natural teeth. These clasps may be metal, clear, or tooth-coloured, depending on aesthetic and functional requirements.
One of the key advantages of acrylic partial dentures is their flexibility for future changes. If additional teeth are lost, extra teeth can often be added to the existing denture, making it a convenient and adaptable option.
Acrylic partial dentures are commonly recommended as an interim or cost-effective long-term solution, helping restore confidence, speech, and chewing ability while supporting your remaining natural teeth.
2 & 3 Reline and repairs
A denture reline is a procedure where the inner surface of your denture is adjusted and resurfaced with new material to improve its fit against your gums. As your mouth and gum shape naturally change over time, a reline helps maintain a comfortable, stable, and secure fit, ensuring your denture continues to function properly.
It’s a good idea to consider a denture reline every couple of years to ensure it continues to fit properly. Over time, your gums naturally shrink, which can lead to a loose or poorly fitting denture. If you notice slipping while eating or speaking, discomfort, or sore spots, it may be time for a reline. For immediate dentures, a reline is usually needed sooner—typically within 6–12 months.
If your denture cracks, a tooth comes out, or it breaks, place it safely in a denture container and contact us as soon as possible. Please do not attempt to repair it yourself with superglue. Household adhesives are not safe for use in the mouth and can often cause further damage.
In most cases, dentures can be repaired quickly using professional materials and equipment. We’ll arrange the earliest available appointment to assess the damage and discuss the best solution for you.
Denture repairs can be completed on the same day. However, an appointment is essential to ensure we can assist you promptly.
