Examples of our work
Dentures are a reliable solution for restoring both function and aesthetics for those missing multiple teeth. At Wimpole Street Dental Clinic, our dentures case studies illustrate how we tailor each set for a natural look, comfort, and optimal fit. From partial to full dentures, these cases reveal the journey to a restored smile, enabling patients to speak, eat, and smile confidently again with results that blend seamlessly with their natural appearance.

Full (or complete) dentures need the support of healthy gums as they are secured to them via a precise fit plus dental sealant (fixative adhesive) can be used if needed. Partial dentures are a smaller version of full dentures designed to be attached via clips to your neighbouring healthy teeth to close the gap created by the missing teeth.
What happens during treatment?
The treatment process for manufacturing and fitting dentures depends on the type of denture required and your own personal oral health situation. In most circumstances, our patients need partial or full dentures. However, in some cases, our patients might require immediate dentures that are fitted on the same day because they are in a rush to restore their smile back to normal (usually due to a special upcoming event for which they want to have their dentures ready). Same-day or immediate dentures however are usually more costly and require greater dental resources to ensure a fast but comfortable fit for the patient.

Who is suitable for dentures?
Dental patients who seek to replace one or more missing teeth lost to tooth decay or accident or who seek to replace all upper and lower teeth within the mouth may be deemed suitable for partial or full dentures treatment, respectively.
You may be considering dentures if you have experienced extensive tooth loss but you still retain healthy gums and some healthy teeth showing no signs of periodontitis or gum disease and a strong jawbone which are pre-requisites to support a successful application of snug-fitting full or partial dentures in the mouth.
In many instances with older patients, tooth loss has been inevitable due to years of wear and progressing gum disease. However, this doesn’t mean that young people can’t have dentures. Dentures for young people might not be as common but is still possible, particularly for young people who perhaps have suffered tooth loss from accidents or contact sports. Our dentists might recommend dentures over dental implants to young adults who regularly participate in contact sports such as rugby or boxing to avoid requiring repeat dental treatment every time a tooth or implant gets knocked out!
