What are dentures?
Dentures are also known as false teeth. They are made from metal or high-quality plastic, and fit into your gums to replace missing teeth. Dentures can replace all of your upper and/or lower teeth (complete dentures), or just a few of them (partial dentures), or even just one tooth. Because of their advantages, dentures are one of the most common ways of replacing absent teeth. The procedure to make them is non-invasive, and faster than other methods of tooth replacement – in fact, your dentures can be ready within just a few weeks. Dentures are also often the cheapest method of tooth replacement.
The advantages of dentures
- Long-lasting
Although dentures don’t last as long as dental implants, they can still last for years if they are cared for properly. Furthermore, Scott Arms Dental Practise makes dentures to the highest standards, which means they retain their use for longer.
- Made quickly
Dentures take just a few weeks to make. This is relatively fast compared to installing dental implants, which can take up to eight months. Temporary dentures can also be made straight after a tooth extraction, so no-one would ever guess you’ve had a tooth out. In comparison, other methods of tooth replacement can’t begin until months after an extraction. Therefore, with dentures you’ll be smiling sooner!
- Non-invasive procedure
Unlike dental implants, dentures require no needles, sharp tools or invasive surgery. Instead, the straight-forward procedure consists of simply making a mould of your teeth with a putty-like material, which is then sent away to help make your final dentures.
- Value for money
Because making dentures is a relatively simple procedure, dentures are usually a cheaper option than dental implants and dental bridges.
- Smile with confidence
Sculpted to your individual needs, dentures look and feel natural. Replacing your missing teeth, they complete your smile, dramatically improving aesthetics – share yourself with others without refrain!
How are dentures made?

Come in for a friendly chat with one of our dentists who can advise you on the right solution.
Taking an impression
The dentist takes measurements of your mouth, and then places a putty-like material in your mouth to make a mould to create an accurate impression of your gums.
Making wax blocks
A dental technician makes wax blocks from the moulds. These are then put into your mouth to determine how your teeth bite together, which ensures that your final dentures allow you to bite properly.
Testing the temporary denture
A trial denture is made to your personal specifications. You can try it out to ensure you’re happy with its shape, colour and appearance. When you give the go ahead, the final denture is made using stronger materials.
Your new dentures are ready!
The denture is ready to use. It might need small adjustments, so you should see the dentist again a few weeks later.
