A Modern Approach to Dentures
Today’s dentures are designed to look realistic, feel comfortable and enhance your everyday quality of life. At Thornbury Dental Wellness, we take the time to understand your goals so that we can create a solution that supports both function and aesthetics.
Many patients choose dentures because they offer:
- Improved chewing and speaking
- Support for facial structure
- A natural looking smile
- An affordable option for replacing missing teeth
- Custom design for a secure, personalised fit
If you are unsure which denture type suits you best, our team will guide you through your options and ensure you feel informed and supported at every step.
Types of Dentures Available at Our Practice
Used when all teeth in the upper or lower jaw are missing. These dentures restore your full smile and help support facial shape.
Ideal when some natural teeth remain. Replacement teeth are attached to a gum coloured base and secured with clasps for stability.
Placed immediately after tooth extraction so you can maintain your smile and daily function while your gums heal.
Designed to fit over remaining natural teeth or implants, offering enhanced stability and comfort.
Anchored by dental implants for maximum security and improved chewing strength. Particularly beneficial for patients struggling with loose lower dentures.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of dentures do you offer?
We provide complete, partial, immediate, overdentures and implant supported dentures to suit different levels of tooth loss.
Will my dentures look natural?
Yes. Each set is custom designed to match the shape, size and shade of natural teeth, helping your smile appear balanced and confident.
How long does it take to get new dentures?
The process typically involves several appointments over a few weeks to ensure precision and comfort.
Are dentures comfortable to wear?
Modern dentures are designed for comfort. Some adjustment is normal at first, and we provide follow up visits to refine the fit.
What should I do if my dentures become loose?
Book an appointment so we can assess the fit and make any necessary adjustments. Wearing ill fitting dentures can affect comfort and oral health.
How long does it take to get used to new dentures?
It is normal for dentures to feel unfamiliar at first. Most patients adapt within a few weeks as the mouth and muscles adjust. Our team will support you throughout this period with advice and follow-up care to ensure a comfortable fit.
