Dentures in Gardens Dental Centre
Replace teeth in a modern way!
Dentures—an Overview
Dentures have been used to replace missing teeth for years and have stood the test of time. These removable tooth replacements were once thought to be bulky, wobbly, and artificial-looking—but not anymore. Modern dentures have defied tradition, evolving into sleek, robust, and aesthetically pleasing tooth replacements. Dentures in Gardens Dental Centre are customised and let you enjoy your favourite foods whilst complementing your face, appearance, and personality.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures are removable dental tooth replacements composed of a plate (the denture base) that sits on the gums and palate to support the prosthetic teeth. The denture plate is usually made of acrylic, a combination of acrylic and cobalt chromium, or sophisticated, flexible materials like nylon-based resins (also used in flexible partial dentures). We strive to give you the best dentures in Gardens Dental Centre by ensuring optimal outcomes, both functionally and aesthetically.
Types of Dentures
- Full Dentures: These are best suited for patients who have lost all of their teeth in one or both jaws.
- Partial Dentures: These are designed to replace a few lost teeth and are supported by natural teeth.
- Acrylic Dentures: These are your usual pink dentures; they are lightweight, inexpensive, adjustable, and closely mimic the gums.
- Metal-Framed Dentures: Acrylic dentures may have cobalt-chromium metal frames that are strong, inconspicuous, and durable.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: Also called overdentures, these full dentures are supported by dental implants. They are more stable, require less regular cleaning, and feel almost comparable to natural teeth.
Who Can Get Dentures?
Dentures are suitable for those with:
- Complete loss of teeth.
- The loss of one or more teeth.
- Ideal for those looking for a removable tooth replacement solution that is less expensive than dental implants or bridges.
- Dentures for seniors: They are a viable option for the elderly who cannot attend multiple invasive dental procedures.
We regularly provide consultations and denture treatments to patients from Dulwich, Peckham, Dulwich Village, Brixton, Newlands, and Hono Oak.

What Our Patients Say
My name is not Merlin. That is my son’s name. The treatment at the dental clinic was excellent. The dentist was very friendly and thorough. She did all the tests necessary to diagnose the problem. In the end it had to be referred to a specialist. But she prepared all the groundwork. I felt safe in her hands.
