Dentures in Croydon
Replace teeth traditionally!
Dentures—an Overview
Dentures have been a trusted solution to replace missing teeth for centuries. What was thought to be bulky, wobbly and unnatural-looking even a decade ago has evolved into sleek, comfortable, and natural-looking replacements today. At Smile 4 U, we specialise in designing and creating bespoke dentures in Croydon that help you enjoy your favourite meals whilst blending well with your face, looks and personality.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable prosthetic dental tooth replacements that are made of a plate that fits snugly and comfortably on the gums to support artificial teeth. They are typically made of acrylic or a combination of acrylic and cobalt chrome. Advanced materials like flexible nylon resin are used now-a-days to make flexible partial dentures. As we strive to offer you the best dentures in Croydon, we aim to ensure optimal results, both functionally and aesthetically, within your budget, needs and comfort.
Types of Dentures
- Full Dentures: Ideal for patients who have lost all teeth in one or both jaws.
- Partial Dentures: Designed for those missing several teeth are isolated sections of the mouth; they prevent remaining teeth from shifting into the gap left by tooth loss.
- Acrylic Dentures: These are the traditional pink dentures; they are lightweight, cost-effective, customisable, and closely mimic the gums.
- Metal-Framed Dentures: Acrylic dentures sometimes come with cobalt chromium metal frames; they are durable with a discreet design and long-lasting.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: Also called overdentures, these full dentures take support from dental implants underneath. They have better stability, need not be removed often for cleaning and almost feel like natural teeth.
Who Can Get Dentures?
Dentures are suitable for anyone with:
- Complete loss of teeth
- Loss of a few or more teeth
- Those who are looking for a removable tooth replacement option
- And those who wish for an affordable alternative to dental implants and dental bridges.
- Dentures for seniors: They are a viable option for the elderly who are not fit enough to undergo multiple invasive dental procedures.
We regularly provide dentures to patients from Croydon, Addiscombe, Shirley, West Wickham, Thornton Heath, and Addington.
