Our Denture Solutions
We offer a variety of denture options depending on the number of teeth needing replacing:
Full (Complete) Dentures
Designed for patients who have lost all of their teeth in an arch (upper or lower), complete dentures restore the entire set of teeth.
Partial Dentures
For those patients that have some natural teeth remaining, partial dentures fill the spaces created by missing teeth and prevent other teeth from shifting.
Immediate Dentures
Prepared in advance and can be positioned as soon as the teeth are removed, allowing you not to be without teeth during the healing period.
Overdentures
These can sit over your remaining natural teeth or implants for added stability.
Custom Dentures
Tailored to fit comfortably and look as natural as possible, enhancing your smile and facial aesthetic.
Am I suitable For Dentures Treatment?
Determining if a patient is a good candidate for dentures is a crucial step in the journey toward restoring their oral health. At Smile Dental Clinic in Great Yarmouth, we carefully assess each person’s needs and circumstances. Here are some key factors that make people suitable candidates for dentures:
- Significant Tooth Loss: Patients that have lost several or all teeth are primary candidates for this treatment. Dentures help restore function and aesthetics to your smile.
- Issues With Existing Teeth: Complete dentures can be a great solution for patients whose remaining teeth are severely decayed or damaged and cannot be saved through other dental treatments.
- Desire for Improved Dental Function and Aesthetics: If the patient is experiencing difficulty chewing food or speaking clearly due to missing teeth, dentures may significantly improve these functions. Missing teeth can lead to a sunken facial appearance. Dentures help fill out the face and provide support, enhancing the overall facial aesthetic.
- Health Conditions Affecting Oral Tissues: Patients with advanced gum disease that led to tooth loss might be candidates for dentures as a part of a broader dental health treatment plan.
Dentures: The Process
Our experienced dentists at Smile Dental Clinic follow a detailed procedure to ensure that every patient receives a custom-fit denture solution that enhances their quality of life. We guide patients through each step, giving them comfort, clarity, and confidence. The procedure is slightly different for complete and partial dentures, but it generally follows this process:
1. Consultation
Our dentists start with a thorough evaluation of your oral health and discuss the best denture option for your needs.
2. Impressions and Measurements
Detailed impressions and measurements of your jaw are taken to create dentures that will fit comfortably and provide the most optimal function.
3. Trial Fittings
Before the final denture is created, you’ll have trial fittings to ensure the shape, colour, and fit of your denture(s) meet your approval.
4. Final Adjustments
Once your custom dentures are fabricated, our dentists will make any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit.
5. Guidance and Care
Our dentists will provide comprehensive guidance on how to care for your dentures and ensure the longevity of your new smile.

Caring For Your Dentures
Proper care is essential to maintain your dentures and oral health. This includes regular cleaning, keeping them moist when not in use, and handling them carefully to avoid damage.
- Daily Cleaning: Remove dentures and rinse with water after eating to remove food debris. Use a soft-bristled brush and a non-abrasive denture cleaner daily. Do not use regular toothpaste, as it can scratch the surface.
- Soak Overnight: Keep dentures in a denture-soaking solution or plain water overnight. Never let your denture(s) dry out as it can result in warping.
- Oral Hygiene: Clean your gums, tongue, and any remaining teeth every morning and night with a soft toothbrush. Rinse your mouth before putting your dentures back in.
- Regular Dental Checkups: Visit your dentist at Smile Dental Clinic regularly to monitor your oral health and check the denture fit. Poorly fitting dentures can cause sores, infections, and speech or eating problems.
- Avoid The Following: Do not use harsh cleaning agents like bleach or vinegar on your dentures and don’t sleep with your dentures in unless advised by your dentist.
